ABSTRACTError bounds are derived and examined for approximate solutions in terms of elementary functions of the differential equationsin which u is a positive parameter, the functions f and p are free from singularities and p does not vanish. Bounds are also obtained for the remainder terms in the asymptotic expansions of the solutions in descending powers of u. The variable x ranges over a real interval, finite or infinite or over a region of the complex plane, bounded or unbounded.Applications are made to parabolic cylinder functions of large orders, and modified Bessel functions of large orders.


A theory of confluent hypergeometric functions is developed, based upon the methods described in the first three papers (I, II and III) of this series for replacing the divergent parts of asymptotic expansions by easily calculable series involving one or other of the four ‘ basic converging factors ’ which were investigated and tabulated in I. This theory is then illustrated by application to the special cases of exponential-type integrals, parabolic cylinder functions, modified Bessel functions, and ordinary Bessel functions.

The objective of the present paper is to obtain a quadruple infinite integral. This integral involves the product of the Struve and parabolic cylinder functions and expresses it in terms of the Hurwitz–Lerch Zeta function. Almost all Hurwitz-Lerch Zeta functions have an asymmetrical zero distributionSpecial cases in terms fundamental constants and other special functions are produced. All the results in the work are new.

The potential function for a point electrode in the vicinity of a vertical fault or dike may be expressed as an infinite integral involving Bessel functions. Beginning with such an expression, two methods are presented for the direct analysis of resistivity data measured both normal and parallel to dikes or faults. The first method is based on the asymptotic expansion of the Hankel transform of the field data and is suitable for surveys done parallel to the strike of the dike or fault. The second method is based on a successive approximation technique which starts from an initial approximate solution and iterates until a solution with prescribed accuracy is found. Both methods are suitable for programming on a digital computer and some illustrative numerical results are presented. These examples show the limitations of the methods. In addition, the application of resistivity data to the interpretation of induced‐polarization data is pointed out.

The object of the present note is to obtain a number of infinite integrals involving Struve functions and parabolic cylinder functions. 1. G. N. Watson(1) has proved thatFrom (1)follows provided that the integral is convergent and term-by-term integration is permissible. A great many interesting particular cases of (2) are easily deducible: the following will be used in this paper.
