Hardcover. Condition: Like New. First Edition. A firm and square hardback with sharp corners and strong joints, just showing a few very minor cosmetic rubs. Hence a non-text page has a small 'damaged' stamp. Despite such this book is actually in nearly new condition and appears unread. Thus the contents are crisp, fresh and tight; no pen-marks. Now offered for sale at a very sensible price. Seller Inventory # 209101

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Higher special functions emerge from boundary eigenvalue problems of Fuchsian differential equations with more than three singularities. This detailed reference provides solutions for singular boundary eigenvalue problems of linear ordinary differential equations of second order, exploring previously unknown methods for finding higher special functions. Starting from the fact that it is the singularities of a differential equation that determine the local, as well as the global, behaviour of its solutions, the author develops methods that are both new and efficient and lead to functional relationships that were previously unknown. All the developments discussed are placed within their historical context, allowing the reader to trace the roots of the theory back through the work of many generations of great mathematicians. Particular attention is given to the work of George Cecil Jaffe, who laid the foundation with the calculation of the quantum mechanical energy levels of the hydrogen molecule ion. This detailed reference provides solutions for singular boundary eigenvalue problems of linear ordinary differential equations of second order. Containing new functions, unseen eigenvalue curves, a general method of solution, examples of unsolved problems and historical context, it will be indispensable for graduate students and researchers alike.
