Abstract

We establish new sampling representations for linear integral transforms associated with arbitrary general Birkhoff regular boundary value problems. The new approach is developed in connection with the analytical properties of Green’s function, and does not require the root functions to be a basis or complete. Unlike most of the known sampling expansions associated with eigenvalue problems, the results obtained are, generally speaking, of Hermite interpolation type.
