# §19.4(ii) Differential Equations

Let $D_{k}=\ifrac{\partial}{\partial k}$. Then

 19.4.8 $(k{k^{\prime}}^{2}D_{k}^{2}+(1-3k^{2})D_{k}-k)\mathop{F\/}\nolimits\!\left(% \phi,k\right)=\frac{-k\mathop{\sin\/}\nolimits\phi\mathop{\cos\/}\nolimits\phi% }{(1-k^{2}{\mathop{\sin\/}\nolimits^{2}}\phi)^{3/2}},$
 19.4.9 $(k{k^{\prime}}^{2}D_{k}^{2}+{k^{\prime}}^{2}D_{k}+k)\mathop{E\/}\nolimits\!% \left(\phi,k\right)=\frac{k\mathop{\sin\/}\nolimits\phi\mathop{\cos\/}% \nolimits\phi}{\sqrt{1-k^{2}{\mathop{\sin\/}\nolimits^{2}}\phi}}.$

If $\phi=\pi/2$, then these two equations become hypergeometric differential equations (15.10.1) for $\mathop{K\/}\nolimits\!\left(k\right)$ and $\mathop{E\/}\nolimits\!\left(k\right)$. An analogous differential equation of third order for $\mathop{\Pi\/}\nolimits\!\left(\phi,\alpha^{2},k\right)$ is given in Byrd and Friedman (1971, 118.03).
