Abstract

Discrete sums of exponentials g(w)=aβeβwg(w) = \sum a_{\beta} \mathrm{e}^{\beta w} with positive exponents may converge not normally in neighborhoods HH of -\infty which do not contain half-planes. In order to obtain a decomposition of a holomorphic function gg in HH as a sum of exponentials we study the Laplace transform in general neighborhoods of -\infty. We adress questions such as continuity of Laplace and inverse Laplace transformations, continuity for the operation of taking partial sums, and resummation formulas.
