Second Order Differential Equations presents a classical piece of theory concerning hypergeometric special functions as solutions of second-order linear differential equations. The theory is presented in an entirely self-contained way, starting with an introduction of the solution of the second-order differential equations and then focusingon the systematic treatment and classification of these solutions.
Each chapter contains a set of problems which help reinforce the theory. Some of the preliminaries are covered in appendices at the end of the book, one of which provides an introduction to Poincaré-Perron theory, and the appendix also contains a new way of analyzing the asymptomatic behavior of solutions of differential equations.
This textbook is appropriate for advanced undergraduate and graduate students in Mathematics, Physics, and Engineering interested in Ordinary and Partial Differntial Equations. A solutions manual is available online.
From the reviews:
"Gerhard Kristensson's book Second Order Differential Equations: Special Functions and Their Classification concerns precisely what Felix Klein called 'the central problem of the whole of modern [i.e. late nineteenth century] mathematics.' . The book is well-written . . A big picture of special function relationships emerges by the end and the book has several helpful diagrams to help visualize these relationships. . An instructor teaching from this book might do well . ." (John D. Cook, The Mathematical Association of America, October, 2010)
"The aim of the author is to present the classification and systematics of the pertinent special functions on the basis of the solutions of the underlying differential equations. . The book is well written and convenient to read, and its content is interesting and useful. . it might serve for preparing seminar talks or lectures." (Wolfgang Bühring, Mathematical Reviews, Issue 2011 j)
"The aim of this textbook is to complete the existing gap in the literature related to the structure of and relationship between different special functions. . In every chapter, many interconnections between the considered special functions are presented. Every chapter is endowed with exercises and problems." (Boris V. Loginov, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1215, 2011)
Dateiformat: PDFKopierschutz: Wasserzeichen-DRM (Digital Rights Management)
Systemvoraussetzungen:
Das Dateiformat PDF zeigt auf jeder Hardware eine Buchseite stets identisch an. Daher ist eine PDF auch für ein komplexes Layout geeignet, wie es bei Lehr- und Fachbüchern verwendet wird (Bilder, Tabellen, Spalten, Fußnoten). Bei kleinen Displays von E-Readern oder Smartphones sind PDF leider eher nervig, weil zu viel Scrollen notwendig ist. Mit Wasserzeichen-DRM wird hier ein „weicher” Kopierschutz verwendet. Daher ist technisch zwar alles möglich – sogar eine unzulässige Weitergabe. Aber an sichtbaren und unsichtbaren Stellen wird der Käufer des E-Books als Wasserzeichen hinterlegt, sodass im Falle eines Missbrauchs die Spur zurückverfolgt werden kann.
