Abstract
The Hankel transform of an integer sequence is defined and some of its properties discussed. It is shown that the Hankel transform of a sequence S is the same as the Hankel transform of the Binomial or Invert transform of S. If H is the Hankel matrix of a sequence and H=LU is the LU decomposition of H, the behavior of the first super-diagonal of U under the Binomial or Invert transform is also studied. This leads to a simple classification scheme for certain integer sequences. 1.
