The hypergeometric function, the confluent hypergeometric function and WKB solutions

Takashi Aoki, Toshinori Takahashi, Mika Tanda

Open publisher page 6 citations

Abstract

Relations between the hypergeometric function with a large parameter and Borel sums of WKB solutions of the hypergeometric differential equation with the large parameter are established. The confluent hypergeometric function is also investigated from the viewpoint of exact WKB analysis. As applications, asymptotic expansion formulas for those classical special functions with respect to parameters are obtained.
