§28.7 Analytic Continuation of Eigenvalues

►As functions of $q$, $a_n\left(q\right)$ and $b_n\left(q\right)$ can be continued analytically in the complex $q$-plane. The only singularities are algebraic branch points, with $a_n\left(q\right)$ and $b_n\left(q\right)$ finite at these points. …The normal values are simple roots of the corresponding equations (28.2.21) and (28.2.22). … ► …

Ince (1940a) tabulates the eigenvalues $a_{\nu }^m\left(k^2\right)$, $b_{\nu }^{m+1}\left(k^2\right)$ (with $a_{\nu }^{2m+1}$ and $b_{\nu }^{2m+1}$ interchanged) for $k^2=0.1,0.5,0.9$, $\nu =-\frac{1}{2},0(1)25$, and $m=0,1,2,3$. Precision is 4D.

Arscott and Khabaza (1962) tabulates the coefficients of the polynomials $P$ in Table 29.12.1 (normalized so that the numerically largest coefficient is unity, i.e. monic polynomials), and the corresponding eigenvalues $h$ for $k^2=0.1(.1)0.9$, $n=1(1)30$. Equations from §29.6 can be used to transform to the normalization adopted in this chapter. Precision is 6S.

… ►Initial approximations to the eigenvalues can be found, for example, from the asymptotic expansions supplied in §29.7(i). … ►A third method is to approximate eigenvalues and Fourier coefficients of Lamé functions by eigenvalues and eigenvectors of finite matrices using the methods of §§3.2(vi) and 3.8(iv). … ►

§29.20(ii) Lamé Polynomials

►The eigenvalues corresponding to Lamé polynomials are computed from eigenvalues of the finite tridiagonal matrices $𝐌$ given in §29.15(i), using methods described in §3.2(vi) and Ritter (1998). …

4: 29.9 Stability

… ►If $\nu$ is not an integer, then (29.2.1) is unstable iff $h\le a_{\nu }^0\left(k^2\right)$ or $h$ lies in one of the closed intervals with endpoints $a_{\nu }^m\left(k^2\right)$ and $b_{\nu }^m\left(k^2\right)$, $m=1,2,\mathrm{\dots }$. If $\nu$ is a nonnegative integer, then (29.2.1) is unstable iff $h\le a_{\nu }^0\left(k^2\right)$ or $h\in [b_{\nu }^m\left(k^2\right),a_{\nu }^m\left(k^2\right)]$ for some $m=1,2,\mathrm{\dots },\nu$.

§25.17 Physical Applications

►Analogies exist between the distribution of the zeros of $\zeta \left(s\right)$ on the critical line and of semiclassical quantum eigenvalues. This relates to a suggestion of Hilbert and Pólya that the zeros are eigenvalues of some operator, and the Riemann hypothesis is true if that operator is Hermitian. …
