"In January 1980 when I visited Beijing, Professor Z X Wang, my MSc thesis advisor of many years ago, gave me a copy of his book with Mr D R Guo on Special Functions. On many occasions in the later years, I had consulted the book for various things such as the hypergeometric series and the elliptic functions. The book is systematic, clear and to the point, as one would expect f...(展开全部)

Sahara Jones is going into fifth grade-again. Although she won't be "Sahara Special" anymore (special needs, that is), she doesn't expect this year to be any better than last year. Fifth grade is going to be different, though, because Sahara's class is getting a new teacher: Miss Pointy. From her eggplant-colored lipstick to the strange subjects she teaches, like "Puzzling" a...(展开全部)

Special functions, natural generalizations of the elementary functions, have been studied for centuries. The greatest mathematicians, among them Euler, Gauss, Legendre, Eisenstein, Riemann, and Ramanujan, have laid the foundations for this beautiful and useful area of mathematics. This treatise presents an overview of special functions, focusing primarily on hypergeometric func...(展开全部)
