Series expansions of the parabolic cylinder functions U(a,x) and W(a,x). The formulas can be found in Abramowitz and Stegun (1972).

The system of partial differential equations iu_t+u_(xx)+alphau_(yy)+betau|u|^2-uv=0 v_(xx)+gammav_(yy)+delta(|u|^2)_(yy)=0.

Debye's asymptotic representation is an asymptotic expansion for a Hankel function of the first kind with nu approx x. For 1-nu/x>epsilon, nu/x=sinalpha, ...

Given a Jacobi amplitude phi and a elliptic modulus m in an elliptic integral, Delta(phi)=sqrt(1-msin^2phi).

A delta sequence is a sequence of strongly peaked functions for which lim_(n->infty)int_(-infty)^inftydelta_n(x)f(x)dx=f(0) (1) so that in the limit as n->infty, the ...

The difference of a quantity from some fixed value, usually the "correct" or "expected" one.

Differential calculus is that portion of "the" calculus dealing with derivatives. Among his many other talents, Major General Stanley in Gilbert and Sullivan's operetta the ...

A differential ideal I on a manifold M is an ideal in the exterior algebra of differential k-forms on M which is also closed under the exterior derivative d. That is, for any ...

The computation of a derivative.

An expansion based on the roots of x^(-n)[xJ_n^'(x)+HJ_n(x)]=0, where J_n(x) is a Bessel function of the first kind, is called a Dini expansion.
