Borel Transform
Nachbin's theorem has immediate applications in Cauchy theorem-like situations, and for integral transforms. For example, the generalized Borel transform is given by
If f is of Ψ-type τ, then the exterior of the domain of convergence of, and all of its singular points, are contained within the disk
Furthermore, one has
where the contour of integration γ encircles the disk . This generalizes the usual Borel transform for exponential type, where . The integral form for the generalized Borel transform follows as well. Let be a function whose first derivative is bounded on the interval, so that
where . Then the integral form of the generalized Borel transform is
The ordinary Borel transform is regained by setting . Note that the integral form of the Borel transform is just the Laplace transform.

Famous quotes containing the word transform:
“But I must needs take my petulance, contrasting it with my accustomed morning hopefulness, as a sign of the ageing of appetite, of a decay in the very capacity of enjoyment. We need some imaginative stimulus, some not impossible ideal which may shape vague hope, and transform it into effective desire, to carry us year after year, without disgust, through the routine- work which is so large a part of life.”
—Walter Pater (1839–1894)
