The Weierstrass-Whittaker Integral Transform

abstract:
We introduce a Weierstrass type transform associated with the Whittaker integral transform, which we refer to as Weierstrass-Whittaker integral transform. We examine some properties of the transform and show, in particular, that it is helpful in solving of a generalized non-stationary heat equation with an initial condition.
