  • Subsection 19.2(ii) and Equation (19.2.9)

    The material surrounding (19.2.8), (19.2.9) has been updated so that the complementary complete elliptic integrals of the first and second kind are defined with consistent multivalued properties and correct analytic continuation. In particular, (19.2.9) has been corrected to read

    19.2.9
    K ( k ) = { K ( k ) , | ph k | 1 2 π , K ( k ) 2 i K ( k ) , 1 2 π < ± ph k < π ,
    E ( k ) = { E ( k ) , | ph k | 1 2 π , E ( k ) 2 i ( K ( k ) E ( k ) ) , 1 2 π < ± ph k < π
  • Equation (10.23.11)
    10.23.11 a k = 1 2 π i | t | = c f ( t ) O k ( t ) d t , 0 < c < c

    Originally the contour of integration written incorrectly as | z | = c , has been corrected to be | t | = c .

  • Section 1.14

    There have been extensive changes in the notation used for the integral transforms defined in §1.14. These changes are applied throughout the DLMF. The following table summarizes the changes.

    Transform New Abbreviated Old
    Notation Notation Notation
    Fourier ( f ) ( x ) f ( x )
    Fourier Cosine c ( f ) ( x ) c f ( x )
    Fourier Sine s ( f ) ( x ) s f ( x )
    Laplace ( f ) ( s ) f ( s ) ( f ( t ) ; s )
    Mellin ( f ) ( s ) f ( s ) ( f ; s )
    Hilbert ( f ) ( s ) f ( s ) ( f ; s )
    Stieltjes 𝒮 ( f ) ( s ) 𝒮 f ( s ) 𝒮 ( f ; s )

    Previously, for the Fourier, Fourier cosine and Fourier sine transforms, either temporary local notations were used or the Fourier integrals were written out explicitly.

  • Figures 36.3.18, 36.3.19, 36.3.20, 36.3.21

    The scaling error reported on 2016-09-12 by Dan Piponi also applied to contour and density plots for the phase of the hyperbolic umbilic canonical integrals. Scales were corrected in all figures. The interval 8.4 x y 2 8.4 was replaced by 12.0 x y 2 12.0 and 12.7 x + y 2 4.2 replaced by 18.0 x + y 2 6.0 . All plots and interactive visualizations were regenerated to improve image quality.

  • Subsections 1.15(vi), 1.15(vii), 2.6(iii)

    A number of changes were made with regard to fractional integrals and derivatives. In §1.15(vi) a reference to Miller and Ross (1993) was added, the fractional integral operator of order α was more precisely identified as the Riemann-Liouville fractional integral operator of order α , and a paragraph was added below (1.15.50) to generalize (1.15.47). In §1.15(vii) the sentence defining the fractional derivative was clarified. In §2.6(iii) the identification of the Riemann-Liouville fractional integral operator was made consistent with §1.15(vi).
