The asymptotic behavior of solutions to the second-order linear differential equation $d^{2}w/dz^{2}=\{u^{2}f(\alpha,z)+g(z)\}w$ is analyzed for a large real parameter $u$ and $\alpha\in[0,\alpha_{0}]$, where $\alpha_{0}>0$ is fixed. The…

We study integrals of the form \begin{equation*} \int_{-1}^1(C_n^{(\lambda)}(x))^2(1-x)^\alpha (1+x)^\beta\, dx, \end{equation*} where $C_n^{(\lambda)}$ denotes the Gegenbauer-polynomial of index $\lambda>0$ and $\alpha,\beta>-1$. We give…
The real and complex zeros of the parabolic cylinder function $U(a,z)$ are studied. Asymptotic expansions for the zeros are derived, involving the zeros of Airy functions, and these are valid for $a$ positive or negative and large in…
Simple asymptotic expansions for the Jacobi functions $P_\nu^{(\alpha, \beta)}(z)$ and $Q_\nu^{(\alpha, \beta)}(z)$ for large degree $\nu$, with fixed parameters $\alpha$ and $\beta$, are surprisingly rare in the literature, with only a few…
We introduce a version of the asymptotic expansions for Bessel functions $J_\nu(z)$, $Y_\nu(z)$ that is valid whenever $|z| > \nu$ (which is deep in the Fresnel regime), as opposed to the standard expansions that are applicable only in the…
Asymptotic expansions are given for large values of $n$ of the generalized Bessel polynomials $Y_n^\mu(z)$. The analysis is based on integrals that follow from the generating functions of the polynomials. A new simple expansion is given…

Asymptotic expansions are derived for Gegenbauer (ultraspherical) polynomials for large order $n$ that are uniformly valid for unbounded complex values of the argument $z$, including the real interval $0 \leq z \leq 1$ in which the zeros in…
We obtain the asymptotic expansion for the Gauss hypergeometric function \[F(a-\lambda,b+\lambda;c+i\alpha\lambda;z)\] for $\lambda\rightarrow+\infty$ with $a$, $b$ and $c$ finite parameters by application of the method of steepest…
In this paper we study the following Bessel series $\sum _{l=1}^{\infty } {J_{l+m'}(r)J_{l+m}(r)}{(l+\beta)^\alpha}$ for any $m,m'\in\mathbb{Z}$, $\alpha\in\mathbb{R}$ and $\beta>-1$. They are a particular case of the second type Neumann…
A compilation of new results on the asymptotic behaviour of the Humbert functions $\Psi_1$ and $\Psi_2$, and also on the Appell function $F_2$, is presented. As a by-product, we confirm a conjectured limit which appeared recently in the…
We consider the asymptotic behavior of the incomplete gamma functions gamma(-a,-z) and Gamma(-a,-z) as a goes to infinity. Uniform expansions are needed to describe the transition area z~a in which case error functions are used as main…
Uniform asymptotic expansions are derived for Whittaker's confluent hypergeometric functions $M_{\kappa,\mu}(z)$ and $W_{\kappa,\mu}(z)$, as well as the numerically satisfactory companion function $W_{-\kappa,\mu}(ze^{-\pi i})$. The…
Let (lambda_d)(p) be the p monomer-dimer entropy on the d-dimensional integer lattice Z^d, where p in [0,1] is the dimer density. We give upper and lower bounds for (lambda_d)(p) in terms of expressions involving (lambda_(d-1))(q). The…
Linear second-order ordinary differential equations of the form $d^{2}w/dz^{2}=\{u^{2}f(a,z)$ $+g(z)\}w$ are studied for large values of the real parameter $u$, where $z$ ranges over a bounded or unbounded complex domain $Z$, and $a_{0} \le…

We provide a general result for the algebraic independence of Mahler functions by a new method based on asymptotic analysis. As a consequence of our method, these results hold not only over $\mathbb{C}(z)$, but also over…
