Uniform Asymptotic Expansions

We evaluate the finite part of the regularized zero-point energy for a massless scalar field confined in the interior of a D-dimensional spherical region. While some insight is offered into the dimensional dependence of the WKB approximations by examining the residues of the spectral-zeta-function poles, a mode-sum technique based on an integral representation of the Bessel spectral zeta function is applied with the help of uniform asymptotic expansions (u.a.e.’s).

Uniform Asymptotic Expansions

SynopsisUniform asymptotic expansions are derived for solutions of the spheroidal wave equation, in the oblate case where the parameter µ is real and nonnegative, the separation parameter λ is real and positive, and γ is purely imaginary (γ = iu). As u →∞, three types of expansions are derived for oblate spheroidal functions, which involve elementary, Airy and Bessel functions. Let δ be an arbitrary small positive constant. The expansions are uniformly valid for λ/u2 fixed and lying in the interval (0,2), and for λ / u2when 0<λ/u2 < 1, and when 1 = 1≦λ/u2 < 2. The union of the domains of validity of the various expansions cover the half- plane arg (z)≦ = π/2.

Uniform Asymptotic Expansions

Uniform asymptotic expansions are derived for Whittaker’s confluent hypergeometric functions M κ , μ ( z ) and W κ , μ ( z ) , as well as the numerically satisfactory companion function W − κ , μ ( z   e − π i ) . The expansions are uniformly valid for μ → ∞ , 0 ≤ κ / μ ≤ 1 − δ < 1 and 0 ≤ arg ⁡ ( z ) ≤ π . By using appropriate connection and analytic continuation formulae, these expansions can be extended to all unbounded non-zero complex z . The approximations come from recent asymptotic expansions involving elementary functions and Airy functions, and explicit error bounds are either provided or available.

SynopsisA uniform asymptotic expansion of the Laplace integrals ℒ(f, s) with explicit remainder terms is given. This expansion is valid in the whole complex s−plane. In particular, for s = −ix, it provides the Fourier integral expansion.
