As shown by Morse and Feshbach (1953) and Arfken (1970), the Helmholtz differential equation is separable in prolate spheroidal coordinates.

The Helmholtz differential equation in spherical coordinates is separable. In fact, it is separable under the more general condition that k^2 is of the form ...

The second-order ordinary differential equation (d^2y)/(dx^2)+[theta_0+2sum_(n=1)^inftytheta_ncos(2nx)]y=0, (1) where theta_n are fixed constants. A general solution can be ...

Let ad=bc, then Hirschhorn's 3-7-5 identity, inspired by the Ramanujan 6-10-8 identity, is given by (1) Another version of this identity can be given using linear forms. Let ...

By analogy with the lemniscate functions, hyperbolic lemniscate functions can also be defined arcsinhlemnx = int_0^x(1+t^4)^(1/2)dt (1) = x_2F_1(-1/2,1/4;5/4;-x^4) (2) ...

z(1-z)(d^2y)/(dz^2)+[c-(a+b+1)z](dy)/(dz)-aby=0. It has regular singular points at 0, 1, and infty. Every second-order ordinary differential equation with at most three ...

The radical of an ideal a in a ring R is the ideal which is the intersection of all prime ideals containing a. Note that any ideal is contained in a maximal ideal, which is ...

An integrating factor is a function by which an ordinary differential equation can be multiplied in order to make it integrable. For example, a linear first-order ordinary ...

If any set of points is displaced by X^idx_i where all distance relationships are unchanged (i.e., there is an isometry), then the vector field is called a Killing vector. ...

The partial differential equation 1/(c^2)(partial^2psi)/(partialt^2)=(partial^2psi)/(partialx^2)-mu^2psi (1) that arises in mathematical physics. The quasilinear Klein-Gordon ...
