A modification of Watson’s lemma for Laplace transforms ∞ 0 f(t) e−zt dt was introduced in [Nielsen, 1906], deriving a new asymptotic expansion for large |z| with the extra property of being convergent as well. Inspired in that idea, in this paper we derive asymptotic expansions of two-dimensional Laplace transforms F(x, y) := ∞ 0 ∞ 0 f(t,s) e−xt−ys dt ds for large |x| and |y| that are also convergent. The expansions of F(x, y) are accompanied by error bounds. Asymptotic and convergent expansions of some specialfunctions are given as illustration.

We derive a new analytic representation of the error function erfz in the form of a convergent series whose terms are exponential and rational functions. The expansion holds uniformly in z in the double sector | arg (±z) | <π/4. The expansion is accompanied by realistic error bounds.

The integral [Formula presented] plays an essential role in the study of several phenomena in the theory of elastodynamics (Ceballos and Prato, 2014). But an exact evaluation of this integral in terms of known functions is not possible. In this paper, we derive an analytic representation of this integral in the form of convergent series of elementary functions and hypergeometric functions. This series have an asymptotic character for either, small values of the variable s, or for small values of the variables r and R. It is derived by using the asymptotic technique designed in Lopez (2008) for Mellin convolution integrals. Some numerical experiments show the accuracy of the approximation supplied by the first few terms of the expansion.

We consider the hypergeometric function 2F1(a, b; c; z) for z ∈ C \ [1,∞). For Ra ≥ 0, we derive a convergent expansion of 2F1(a, b; c; z) in terms of the function (1 − z)−a and of rational functions of z that is uniformly valid for z in any compact in C \ [1,∞). When a ∈ N, the expansion also contains a logarithmic term of the form log(1 − z). For Ra ≤ 0, we derive a convergent expansion of (1 − z)a 2F1(a, b; c; z) in terms of the function (1 − z)−a and of rational functions of z that is uniformly valid for z in any compact in C \ [1,∞) in the exterior of the circle |z − 1| = r for arbitrary r > 0. The expansions are accompanied by realistic error bounds. Some numerical experiments show the accuracy of the approximation.

TheH-function of communication theory plays an important role inthe error rate analysis in digital communication with the presenceof additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) and generalized multipathfading conditions. In this paper we investigate several convergentand/or asymptotic expansions ofHp(z,b,η)for some limiting valuesof their variables and parameters: large values ofz, large values ofp, small values ofη, and values ofb→1. We provide explicit and/orrecursive algorithms for the computation of the coefficients of theexpansions. Some numerical examples illustrate the accuracy of theapproximations.
