We prove that if u(x, t) is a solution of the one dimensional heat equation and if A u(x, t) is its Appell transform, then u(x, t) has the semi-group (Huygens) property in a domain D if and only if A u(x, t) has the semi-group property in a dual region. We apply this result to simplify and extend some results of Rosenbloom and Widder.
