Jacobi Function of the Second Kind

Q_n^((alpha,beta))(x)=2^(-n-1)(x-1)^(-alpha)(x+1)^(-beta)
×int_(-1)^1(1-t)^(n+alpha)(1+t)^(n+beta)(x-t)^(-n-1)dt.

In the exceptional case , , a nonconstant solution is given by

Q^((alpha))(x)=ln(x+1)+pi^(-1)sin(pialpha)(x-1)^(-alpha)(x+1)^(-beta)
×int_(-1)^1((1-t)^alpha(1+t)^beta)/(x-t)ln(1+t)dt.
