Although the convolutions in <strong>for</strong>mulae (3.5) and (3.6) lead torather messy <strong>for</strong>mulae, it is not a di¢ cult task to evaluate these convolutionsby numerical integration. Of course, numerical implementation requires thatin…nite sums are truncated at an appropriate point.7
