Abstract
A compactly supported distribution is called invertible in the sense of Ehrenpreis-Hörmander if the convolution with it induces a surjection from $\mathcal{C}^{\infty}(\mathbb{R}^{n})$ to itself. We give sufficient conditions for radial functions to be invertible. Our analysis is based on the asymptotic expansions of finite Hankel transforms. The dominant term may be the contribution from the origin or from the boundary of the support of the function. For the proof, we propose a new method to calculate the asymptotic expansions of finite Hankel transforms of functions with singularities at a point other than the origin.

Key words: convolution; asymptotic expansion; Hankel transform; invertibility.
