The partial differential equation u_(xx)=au_(tt)+bu_t+cu.

The function defined by T_n(x)=((-1)^(n-1))/(sqrt(n!))Z^((n-1))(x), where Z(x)=1/(sqrt(2pi))e^(-x^2/2) and Z^((k))(x) is the kth derivative of Z(x).

In the notation of Watson (1966), theta=zd/(dz).

Also known as the total curvature. The linear element of the indicatrix ds_P=sqrt(ds_T^2+ds_B^2).

Let M be a regular surface with v_(p),w_(p) points in the tangent space M_(p) of M. Then the third fundamental form is given by III(v_(p),w_(p))=S(v_(p))·S(w_(p)), where S is ...

In the theory of special functions, a class of functions is said to be "of the third kind" if it is similar to but distinct from previously defined functions already defined ...

The second-order ordinary differential equation y^('')=y^(3/2)x^(-1/2).

The partial differential equation u_(xy)+alphau_x+betau_y+gammau_xu_y=0.

The ordinary differential equation y^('')+(lambda-x^(2n))y=0.

A function which is not an algebraic function. In other words, a function which "transcends," i.e., cannot be expressed in terms of, algebra. Examples of transcendental ...
