Abstract

Exact propagators are obtained for the degenerate second order hyperbolic operators ∂t2 - t2l Δx, l=1, 2, ..., by analytic continuation from the degenerate elliptic operators ∂t2 + t2l Δx. The partial Fourier transforms are also obtained in closed form, leading to integral transform formulas for certain combinations of Bessel functions and modified Bessel functions.
