scholarly journals The zeros of bessel functions.

1. Although many results are known concerning the zeros of Bessel functions,* the greater number of these results are of practical importance only in the case of functions of comparatively low order. For example, McMahon has given a formula† for calculating the zeros of the Bessel function J n ( x ), namely that, if k 1 , k 2 , k 3 , ..., are the positive zeros arranged in ascending order of magnitude, then ks = β- 4 n 2 -1/8β - 4(4 n 2 -1)(28 n 2 -31)/3.(8β) 3 -..., where β = 1/4 π (2 n +4 s —1).

In this paper we shall be concerned with the derivation of simple expressions for the sums of some infinite series involving the zeros of Bessel functions of the first kind. For instance, if we denote by γv, n (n = l, 2, 3,…) the positive zeros of Jv(z), then, in certain physical applications, we are interested in finding the values of the sumsandwhere m is a positive integer. In § 4 of this paper we shall derive a simple recurrence relation for S2m,v which enables the value of any sum to be calculated as a rational function of the order vof the Bessel function. Similar results are given in § 5 for the sum T2m,v.

In this paper, we determine the radius of convexity for three kinds of normalized Bessel functions of the first kind. In the mentioned cases the normalized Bessel functions are starlike-univalent and convex-univalent, respectively, on the determined disks. The key tools in the proofs of the main results are some new Mittag-Leffler expansions for quotients of Bessel functions of the first kind, special properties of the zeros of Bessel functions of the first kind and their derivative, and the fact that the smallest positive zeros of some Dini functions are less than the first positive zero of the Bessel function of the first kind. Moreover, we find the optimal parameters for which these normalized Bessel functions are convex in the open unit disk. In addition, we disprove a conjecture of Baricz and Ponnusamy concerning the convexity of the Bessel function of the first kind.

Denote by Jν the Bessel function of the first kind of order ν and μν,k is its kth positive zero. For ν > ½, a theorem of Lorch, Muldoon and Szegö states that the sequence [Formula: see text] is decreasing, another theorem of theirs states that the sequence [Formula: see text] has higher monotonicity properties. In the present paper, we proved that when ν > ½ the sequence [Formula: see text] has higher monotonicity properties and the properties imply those of the sequence of the local maxima of the function x-ν+1|Jν-1(x)|, x ∈ (0, ∞), i.e. the sequence [Formula: see text] has higher monotonicity properties.
