Description: BRAND NEW HARDBACK. Because of the numerous applications involved in this field, the theory of special functions is under permanent development, especially regarding the requirements for modern computer algebra methods. the handbook of special functions provides in-depth coverage of special functions, which are used to help solve many of the most difficult problems in physics, engineering, and mathematics. the book presents new results along with well-known formulas used in many of the most important mathematical methods in order to solve a wide variety of problems. it also discusses formulas of connection and conversion for elementary and special functions, such as hypergeometric and meijer g functions. because of the numerous applications involved in this field, the theory of special functions is under permanent development, especially regarding the requirements for modern computer algebra methods. the handbook of special functions provides in-depth coverage of special functions, which are used to help solve many of the most difficult problems in physics, engineering, and mathematics. the book presents new results along with well-known formulas used in many of the most important mathematical methods in order to solve a wide variety of problems. it also discusses formulas of connection and conversion for elementary and special functions, such as hypergeometric and meijer g functions.
