11: Mathematical Introduction
The mathematical project team has endeavored to take into account the hundreds of research papers and numerous books on special functions that have appeared since 1964. …
12: 31.11 Expansions in Series of Hypergeometric Functions
The series of Type I (§31.11(iii)) are useful since they represent the functions in large domains. …
13: Foreword
In 1964 the National Institute of Standards and Technology11 1 Then known as the National Bureau of Standards. published the Handbook of Mathematical Functions with Formulas, Graphs, and Mathematical Tables, edited by Milton Abramowitz and Irene A. …The provision of standard reference data of this type is a core function of NIST. Much has changed in the years since A&S was published. …The new printed volume, the NIST Handbook of Mathematical Functions, serves a similar function as the original A&S, though it is heavily updated and extended. The online version, the NIST Digital Library of Mathematical Functions (DLMF), presents the same technical information along with extensions and innovative interactive features consistent with the new medium. …

15: 20.1 Special Notation
m , n integers.
q ( ) the nome, q = e i π τ , 0 < | q | < 1 . Since τ is not a single-valued function of q , it is assumed that τ is known, even when q is specified. Most applications concern the rectangular case τ = 0 , τ > 0 , so that 0 < q < 1 and τ and q are uniquely related.
16: 32.10 Special Function Solutions
The solution (32.10.34) is an essentially transcendental function of both constants of integration since P VI  with α = β = γ = 0 and δ = 1 2 does not admit an algebraic first integral of the form P ( z , w , w , C ) = 0 , with C a constant. …
17: Errata
  • Equations (14.5.3), (14.5.4)

    The constraints in (14.5.3), (14.5.4) on ν + μ have been corrected to exclude all negative integers since the Ferrers function of the second kind is not defined for these values.

    §14.15 Uniform Asymptotic Approximations
    §14.15(i) Large μ , Fixed ν
    (The inverse hyperbolic functions again take their principal values.) Since (14.15.30) holds for negative x , corresponding approximations for 𝖰 ν μ ( x ) , uniformly valid in the interval 1 < x < 1 , can be obtained from (14.9.9) and (14.9.10). …
    19: 28.2 Definitions and Basic Properties
    Since (28.2.1) has no finite singularities its solutions are entire functions of z . …
    20: 31.9 Orthogonality
    §31.9(i) Single Orthogonality
    The branches of the many-valued functions are continuous on the path, and assume their principal values at the beginning. … The right-hand side may be evaluated at any convenient value, or limiting value, of ζ in ( 0 , 1 ) since it is independent of ζ . For corresponding orthogonality relations for Heun functions31.4) and Heun polynomials (§31.5), see Lambe and Ward (1934), Erdélyi (1944), Sleeman (1966a), and Ronveaux (1995, Part A, pp. 59–64).
