The full width at half maximum (FWHM) is a useful quantity for characterizing the bandwidth of unimodal functions. However, a closed-form expression for the FWHM of gamma-shaped functions-i.e. functions that are shaped like the gamma…
In this work, we develop a method for rational approximation of the Fourier transform (FT) based on the real and imaginary parts of the complex error function \[ w(z) = e^{-z^2}(1 - {\rm{erf}}(-iz)) = K(x,y) + iL(x,y), \qquad z = x + iy, \]…

The Lambert W function was introduced by Euler in 1779, but was not well-known until it was implemented in Maple, and the seminal paper of Corless, Gonnet, Hare, Jeffrey and Khuth was published in 1996. In this note we describe a simple…
