32: 30.1 Special Notation
(For other notation see Notation for the Special Functions.) … The main functions treated in this chapter are the eigenvalues λ n m ( γ 2 ) and the spheroidal wave functions 𝖯𝗌 n m ( x , γ 2 ) , 𝖰𝗌 n m ( x , γ 2 ) , 𝑃𝑠 n m ( z , γ 2 ) , 𝑄𝑠 n m ( z , γ 2 ) , and S n m ( j ) ( z , γ ) , j = 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 . …Meixner and Schäfke (1954) use ps , qs , Ps , Qs for 𝖯𝗌 , 𝖰𝗌 , 𝑃𝑠 , 𝑄𝑠 , respectively.

    37: Mathematical Introduction
    Other examples are: (a) the notation for the Ferrers functions—also known as associated Legendre functions on the cut—for which existing notations can easily be confused with those for other associated Legendre functions14.1); (b) the spherical Bessel functions for which existing notations are unsymmetric and inelegant (§§10.47(i) and 10.47(ii)); and (c) elliptic integrals for which both Legendre’s forms and the more recent symmetric forms are treated fully (Chapter 19). …
