AbstractIn this paper we derive formulas for summation of series involving J. Bourget's generalization of Bessel functions of integer order, as well as the analogous generalizations by H. M. Srivastava. These series are expressed in terms of the Riemann ζ function and Dirichlet functions η, λ, β, and can be brought into closed form in certain cases, which means that the infinite series are represented by finite sums.

It is well-known that using topological derivative is an effective noniterative technique for imaging of crack-like electromagnetic inhomogeneity with small thickness when small number of incident directions are applied. However, there is no theoretical investigation about the configuration of the range of incident directions. In this paper, we carefully explore the mathematical structure of topological derivative imaging functional by establishing a relationship with an infinite series of Bessel functions of integer order of the first kind. Based on this, we identify the condition of the range of incident directions and it is highly depending on the shape of unknown defect. Results of numerical simulations with noisy data support our identification.

We derive representations for some entire q-functions and use it to derive asymptotics and closed form expressions for large zeros of a class of entire functions including the Ramanujan function, and q-Bessel functions.

The paper analyzes the elastic fields caused by an elliptic inclusion which undergoes a uniform expansion. The interface between the inclusion and the matrix cannot sustain shear tractions and is free to slip. Papkovich–Neuber displacement potentials are used to solve the problem. In contrast to the perfectly bonded interface, the solution cannot be expressed in closed form and involves infinite series. The results are illustrated by numerical examples.

<p class="Abstractandkeywordscontent"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Century Gothic;">This paper presents an alternative solution based on infinite series for the accurate and efficient evaluation of cable earth return impedances. This method uses Wedepohl and Wilcox’s transformation to decompose Pollaczek’s integral in a set of Bessel functions and a definite integral. The main feature of Bessel functions is that they are easy to compute in modern mathematical software tools such as Matlab. The main contributions of this paper are the approximation of the definite integral by an infinite series, since it does not have analytical solution; and its numerical solution by means of a recursive formula. The accuracy and efficiency of this recursive formula is compared against the numerical integration method for a broad range of frequencies and cable  configurations. Finally, the proposed method is used as a subroutine for cable parameter calculation in the inverse Numerical Laplace Transform (NLT) to obtain accurate transient responses in the time domain.</span></span></p>

Since the discussion of Kapteyn series occurrences in astronomical problems the wealth of mathematical physics problems in which such series play dominant roles has burgeoned massively. One of the major concerns is the ability to sum such series in closed form so that one can better understand the structural and functional behavior of the basic physics problems. The purpose of this review article is to present some of the recent methods for providing such series in closed form with applications to: (i) the summation of Kapteyn series for radiation from pulsars; (ii) the summation of other Kapteyn series in radiation problems; (iii) Kapteyn series arising in terahertz sideband spectra of quantum systems modulated by an alternating electromagnetic field; and (iv) some plasma problems involving sums of Bessel functions and their closed form summation using variations of the techniques developed for Kapteyn series. In addition, a short review is given of some other Kapteyn series to illustrate the ongoing deep interest and involvement of scientists in such problems and to provide further techniques for attempting to sum divers Kapteyn series.

It is shown that a simple trick involving Legendre polynomials readily yields the irrationality of ea, , π2, and of the zeros of Bessel functions of integer order. Generalisation of this idea yields the irrationality of ζ(3).
