Journal of Multivariate Analysis, 1992, vol. 41, issue 2, 178-193

Abstract: A general Laplace transform and its inverse and their generalizations are considered in this article. This inverse contains the density functions of quadratic expressions in nonsingular as well as singular normal variables and a non-central version of linear functions of gamma variables, among others. Various representations of the inverse in power series, in gamma series, in Laguerre polynomials, in hypergeometric functions and in zonal polynomials are also discussed.
