Inverse Laplace transform of $1/(1+sqrt{1+s^2})$












1














A seemingly simple function,



$F(s)=frac{1}{1+sqrt{1+s^2}}$.



But what is its inverse Laplace transform?



If there is not a closed form, can I get some long/short time asymptotic?



It must have something to do with the Bessel J function.

          We can use the trick of writing
          $$frac 1 {1 + sqrt {1 + s^2}} =
          frac 1 s sqrt {1 + frac 1 {s^2}} - frac 1 {s^2},$$

          which holds for $s$ in the right half-plane. Then
          $$mathcal L^{-1} !{left[ frac 1 {1 + sqrt {1 + s^2}} right]} =
          -mathcal L^{-1}[s^{-2}] +
          sum_{k geq 0} binom {1/2} k mathcal L^{-1}[s^{-2 k - 1}] = \
          -t + sum_{k geq 0} binom {1/2} k frac {t^{2 k}} {Gamma(2 k + 1)} =
          {_1hspace{-2px}F_2} {left( -frac 1 2; frac 1 2, 1; -frac {t^2} 4 right)} - t.$$

          The hypergeometric function can be converted to a combination of Bessel and Struve functions.

          • May I ask a follow up though. So what happens if my function becomes $$frac{1}{c+sqrt{1+s^2}}$$, where $c$ is a constant other than 1. Then the "partial fraction" still works, the binomial theorem still works, but the product is not as nice and we don't just get 1/s that can be absorbed. In this case, is there a way other than convolution?

          • For $c neq pm 1$, the inverse transform will contain an integral of $e^{a t} J_1(t)/t$ (which is the convolution that you mentioned). Most likely some very general special functions will be required to express it in closed form.
