On the N-Dimensional Inversion Laplace Transform of Retarded, Lorentz Invariant Functions

The purpose of this paper is to obtain n-dimensional inversion Laplace transform of retarded, Lorentz invariant functions by means of the passage to the limit of the rth-order derivative of the one-dimensional Laplace transform. This formula (IV.2) can be understood as a generalization of the one-di...
