Gegenbauer-Chebyshev Integrals and Radon Transforms

Abstract: We suggest new modifications of Helgason's support theorems and descriptions of the kernels for several projectively equivalent transforms of integral geometry. The paper deals with the hyperplane Radon transform and its dual, the totally geodesic transforms on the sphere and the hyperbolic space, the spherical slice transform, and the spherical mean transform for spheres through the origin. The assumptions for functions are formulated in integral terms. The proofs rely on the properties of the Gegenbauer-Chebyshev integrals which generalize Abel type fractional integrals on the positive half-line.
