Change of variable formulæ for regularizing slowly decaying and oscillatory Cauchy and Hilbert transforms

Formulæ are derived for expressing Cauchy and Hilbert transforms of a function $f$ in terms of Cauchy and Hilbert transforms of $f(x^r)$. When $r$ is an integer, this corresponds to evaluating the Cauchy transform of $f(x^r)$ at all choices of $z^{1/r}$. Related formuæ for rational $r$ result in a reduction to a generalized Cauchy transform living on a Riemann surface, which in turn is reducible to the standard Cauchy transform. These formulæ are used to regularize the behaviour of functions that are slowly decaying or oscillatory, in order to facilitate numerical computation and extend asymptotic results.
