§28.20(i) Modified Mathieu’s Equation
When z is replaced by ± i z , (28.2.1) becomes the modified Mathieu’s equation:
28.20.1 w ′′ ( a 2 q cosh ( 2 z ) ) w = 0 ,
28.20.2 ( ζ 2 1 ) w ′′ + ζ w + ( 4 q ζ 2 2 q a ) w = 0 , ζ = cosh z .

8: 9.16 Physical Applications
In the study of the stability of a two-dimensional viscous fluid, the flow is governed by the Orr–Sommerfeld equation (a fourth-order differential equation). …An application of Airy functions to the solution of this equation is given in Gramtcheff (1981). Airy functions play a prominent role in problems defined by nonlinear wave equations. These first appeared in connection with the equation governing the evolution of long shallow water waves of permanent form, generally called solitons, and are predicted by the Korteweg–de Vries (KdV) equation (a third-order nonlinear partial differential equation). The KdV equation and solitons have applications in many branches of physics, including plasma physics lattice dynamics, and quantum mechanics. …
