The cases when the equation for the derivative of the confluent Heun function has only three singularities (in general, the equation has four such points) are examined. It is shown that this occurs only in three specific cases. Further, it…

We introduce a new factorized and resummed waveform for circularized, nonspinning, compact binaries that leverages on the solution of the Teukolsky equation once mapped into a confluent Heun equation. The structure of the solution allows…
The hypergeometric and Heun functions are classical special functions. Transformation formulas between them are commonly induced by pull-back transformations of their differential equations, with respect to some coverings P1-to-P1. This…
We transform the Schr\"odinger wave equation to a nine-parameter Heun-type differential equation. Using our solutions of the latter in [J. Math. Phys. 59 (2018) 113507], we are able to identify the associated potential function, energy…
I consider the power series expansion of Lame function in the Weierstrass's form and its integral forms applying three term recurrence formula[1]. I investigate asymptotic expansions of Lame function for the cases of infinite series and…
We obtain special solutions of the $q$-Heun equation which are expressed as finite summations of $q$-hypergeometric functions. These solutions are obtained by considering the $q$-integral transformations of the polynomial-type solutions.
The equation of motion of a massless Dirac particle in the C-metric leads to the general Heun equation (GHE) for the radial and the polar variables. The GHE, under certain parametric conditions, has been cast in terms of a new set of…
The main topic of the paper is represented by the change of basis, in Heun-type equations, from the one of decaying (at two singular points) solutions to that of Floquet solutions. Crucial in the connection relations is the phase acquired…
