Distributions and the Boundary Values of Analytic Functions focuses on the tools and techniques of distribution theory and the distributional boundary behavior of analytic functions and their applications. The publication first offers information on distributions, including spaces of testing functions, distributions of finite order, convolution and regularization, and testing functions of rapid decay and distributions of slow growth. The text then examines Laplace transform, as well as Laplace transforms of distributions with arbitrary support. The manuscript ponders on distributional boundary values of analytic functions, including causal and passive operators, analytic continuation and uniqueness, boundary value theorems and generalized Hilbert transforms, and representation theorems for half-plane holomorphic functions with S'' boundary behavior. The publication is a valuable source of data for researchers interested in distributions and the boundary values of analytic functions.

This volume is based on papers presented at the 2nd International Conference on Computing Methods in Optimization Problems held in San Remo, Italy, September 9-13, 1968. The Conference was sponsored by the Society of Industrial and Applied Mathematicians (SIAM), with the cooperation of the University of California and the Univer- sity of California and the University of Southern Califor- nia. The Conference focussed on recent advances in com- putational methods for optimization problems in diverse areas including: Computational Aspects of Optimal Control and Trajec- tory Problems; Computational Techniques in Mathematical Programming; Computational Techniques in Optimization Problems in Economics, Metero1ogy, Biomedicine and Related Areas; Identification and Inverse Problems; Computational Aspects of Decoding and Information Retrieval Problems; Pattern Recognition Problems. The Organizing Committee of the Conference consisted of: A. V. Balakrishnan (U. S. A. ) - Chairman L. W. Neustadt (U. S. A. ) - Co-Chairman L. A. Zadeh (U. S. A. ) - Co-Chairman G. Debreu (U. S.
