Abstract

In this paper, we study the analytic expansion in a small neighborhood of 0 in the complex plane for the solution to the equation pdp/dzp=z(z1)(z2)p dp/dz - p = z(z-1)(z-2) satisfying p(z)=z+O(z2)p(z) = -z + O(z^2) as z0z \to 0. We show that the expansion is valid for zs0|z| \le s_0, where s0>1s_0 >1. Then we get an explicit formula for p(1)p(1) which is used to give the connection formula for the problem r2f+f=f3r^2 f^{''} + f = f^3, f(1)=0,f()=1f(1) = 0, f(\infty) = 1.
