Inverse Laplace transform of functions with jump discontinuities
Given a function $F(s)$, suppose we define its inverse Laplace transform as:
\begin{equation} f(t) = \lim_{k \to \infty}
\frac{(-1)^{k}}{k!}\left(\frac{k}{t}\right)^{k+1}F^{(k)}\left( \frac{k}{t}
\right) \end{equation}
for $t > 0$.
Now suppose we take the ordinary Laplace transform of a function with a
jump discontinuity. In this case, what would the above formula recover
when applied to the Laplace transform of the function at the jump
discontinuity? Would it be $\frac{1}{2}(f(x^+) + f(x^-))$?
