Laplace transform.


e start our consideration from the Fourier transform.

MATH (Direct Fourier transform)
MATH (Inverse Fourier transform)
We aim to expand these relationships to a transformation MATH where the $z$ is a complex number $z$ , $z=\sigma+i\gamma$ , $-m\leq\sigma\leq m$ for some $m>0$ . The idea is to split MATH and apply ( Direct Fourier transform ),( Inverse Fourier transform ) to MATH .

Suppose the integral MATH converges absolutely for the given interval of values $\beta$ . We proceed according to the stated above idea: MATH MATH We would like to recover the $f$ from $\psi$ . We use ( Inverse Fourier transform ) with the substitution MATH , $x\rightarrow\gamma$ , MATH : MATH We transform the last relationship: MATH Hence, we invert MATH with MATH
