Special Functions by Sergei Yuryevitsh Slavyanov, Wolfgang Lay Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description The topic of special functions is the subject of this book. The authors have based the special functions on the theory of second-order ordinary differential equations in the complex domain. Several physical applications are presented. Publisher Description The subject of this book is the theory of special functions, not considered as a list of functions exhibiting a certain range of properties, but based on the unified study of singularities of second-order ordinary differential equations in the complex domain. The number and characteristics of the singularities serve as a basis for classification of each individual special function. Links between linear special functions (as solutions of linear second-orderequations), and non-linear special functions (as solutions of Painlevé equations) are presented as a basic and new result. Many applications to different areas of physics are shown and discussed. The book iswritten from a practical point of view and will address all those scientists whose work involves applications of mathematical methods. Lecturers, graduate students and researchers will find this a valuable text and reference work.
