We consider the second-order linear differential equation (x2 − 1)y'' + f (x)y′ + g(x)y = h(x) in the interval (−1, 1) with initial conditions or boundary conditions (Dirichlet, Neumann or mixed Dirichlet–Neumann). The ...

We derive new convergent expansions of the symmetric standard elliptic integral RD(x,y,z), for x,y,z∈C∖(−∞,0], in terms of elementary functions. The expansions hold uniformly for large and small values of one of the three ...

In previous papers [6–8,10], we derived convergent and asymptotic expansions of solutions of second order linear differential equations with a large parameter. In those papers we generalized and developed special cases not ...

We obtain an asymptotic expansion of the hyperbolic umbilic catastrophe integral Ψ(H) (x,y,z) := ∫∞−∞∫∞−∞exp(i(s3+t3+zst +yt+xs))ds dt for large values of |x| and bounded values of |y| and |z|. The expansion is given ...

Theis' theory (1935), later improved by Hantush & Jacob (1955) and Moench (1971), is a technique designed to study the water level in aquifers. The key formula in this theory is a certain integral transform H[g](r,t) of ...

We consider the Pearcey integral P(x; y) for large values of |x|, x, y ∈ C. We can find in the literature several convergent or asymptotic expansions in terms of elementary and special functions, with different levels ...

We consider the second-order linear difference equation y(n+2)−2ay(n+1)−Λ2y(n)=g(n)y(n)+f(n)y(n+1) , where Λ is a large complex parameter, a≥0 and g and f are sequences of complex numbers. Two methods are proposed to find ...

We consider the Bessel functions Jν (z) and Yν (z) for ν > −1/2 and z ≥ 0. We derive a convergent expansion of Jν (z) in terms of the derivatives of (sin z)/z, and a convergent expansion of Yν (z) in terms of derivatives ...

We consider the incomplete gamma function γ(a,z) for Ra>0 and z∈C. We derive several convergent expansions of z−aγ(a,z) in terms of exponentials and rational functions of z that hold uniformly in z with Rz bounded from ...

The effect of high-energy ball-milling on the magnetostructural properties of a Ni45Co5Mn35Sn15 alloy in austenitic phase at room temperature has been analyzed by neutron and high-resolution X-ray diffraction. The ball ...
