For expansions of arbitrary functions in series of Legendre polynomials see §18.18(i), and for expansions of arbitrary functions in series of associated Legendre functions see Schäfke (1961b). … The formulas are also valid with the Ferrers functions as in §14.3(i) with μ = 0 . …

§14.32 Methods of Computation
Essentially the same comments that are made in §15.19 concerning the computation of hypergeometric functions apply to the functions described in the present chapter. In particular, for small or moderate values of the parameters μ and ν the power-series expansions of the various hypergeometric function representations given in §§14.3(i)14.3(iii), 14.19(ii), and 14.20(i) can be selected in such a way that convergence is stable, and reasonably rapid, especially when the argument of the functions is real. In other cases recurrence relations (§14.10) provide a powerful method when applied in a stable direction (§3.6); see Olver and Smith (1983) and Gautschi (1967). …

  • Expansion

    §4.13 has been enlarged. The Lambert W -function is multi-valued and we use the notation W k ( x ) , k , for the branches. The original two solutions are identified via Wp ( x ) = W 0 ( x ) and Wm ( x ) = W ± 1 ( x 0 i ) .

    Other changes are the introduction of the Wright ω -function and tree T -function in (4.13.1_2) and (4.13.1_3), simplification formulas (4.13.3_1) and (4.13.3_2), explicit representation (4.13.4_1) for d n W d z n , additional Maclaurin series (4.13.5_1) and (4.13.5_2), an explicit expansion about the branch point at z = e 1 in (4.13.9_1), extending the number of terms in asymptotic expansions (4.13.10) and (4.13.11), and including several integrals and integral representations for Lambert W -functions in the end of the section.

    Over the preceding two months, the subscript parameters of the Ferrers and Legendre functions, 𝖯 n , 𝖰 n , P n , Q n , 𝑸 n and the Laguerre polynomial, L n , were incorrectly displayed as superscripts. Reported by Roy Hughes on 2022-05-23

  • 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.

    Reported by Hans Volkmer on 2021-06-02

  • Equation (14.6.6)
    14.6.6 𝖯 ν m ( x ) = ( 1 x 2 ) m / 2 x 1 x 1 𝖯 ν ( x ) ( d x ) m

    The right-hand side has been corrected by replacing the Legendre function P ν ( x ) with the Ferrers function 𝖯 ν ( x ) .

  • Equation (14.2.7)

    The Wronskian was generalized to include both associated Legendre and Ferrers functions.
