§28.22 Connection Formulas

Contents

§28.22(i) Integer \nu

The joining factors in the above formulas are given by

where A_{n}^{m}(h^{2}), B_{n}^{m}(h^{2}) are as in §28.4(i), and C_{m}(h^{2}), S_{m}(h^{2}) are as in §28.5(i). Furthermore,

§28.22(ii) Noninteger \nu

Here \mathop{\mathrm{me}_{{\nu}}\/}\nolimits\!\left(0,h^{2}\right) (\neq 0) is given by (28.14.1) with z=0, and \mathop{{\mathrm{M}^{{(1)}}_{{\nu}}}\/}\nolimits\!\left(0,h\right) is given by (28.24.1) with j=1, z=0, and n chosen so that |c_{{2n}}^{{\nu}}(h^{2})|=\max(|c_{{2\ell}}^{{\nu}}(h^{2})|), where the maximum is taken over all integers \ell.
