Abstract
We study the spectral expansion of the semigroup of a general stable process killed on the first exit from the positive half-line. Starting with the Wiener-Hopf factorization we obtain the q-resolvent density for the killed process, from which we derive the spectral expansion of the semigroup via the inverse Laplace transform. The eigenfunctions and co-eigenfunctions are given rather explicitly in terms of the double sine function and they give rise to a pair of integral transforms which generalize the classical Fourier sine transform. Our results provide the first explicit example of a spectral expansion of the semigroup of a non-symmetric Lévy process killed on the first exit from the positive half-line.
