The finite Hilbert transform T is a classical (singular) kernel operator which is continuous in every rearrangement invariant space X over p´1, 1q having nontrivial Boyd indices. For X " L p , 1 ă p ă 8, this operator has been intensively investigated since the 1940's (also under the guise of the "airfoil equation"). Recently, the extension and inversion of T : X Ñ X for more general X has been studied in [6], where it is shown that there exists a larger space rT, Xs, optimal in a well defined sense, which contains X continuously and such that T can be extended to a continuous linear operator T : rT, Xs Ñ X. The purpose of this paper is to continue this investigation of T via a consideration of the X-valued vector measure m X : A Þ Ñ T pχ A q induced by T and its associated integration operator f Þ Ñ ş 1 ´1 f dm X . In particular, we present integral representations of T : X Ñ X based on the L 1 -space of m X and other related spaces of integrable functions.
