The Gegenbauer function
, was labeled inadvertently as
the ultraspherical (Gegenbauer) polynomial
. In order to resolve this inconsistency,
this function now links correctly to its definition.
This change affects Gegenbauer functions which appear in
§§14.3(iv), 15.9(iii).
The validity constraint was added.
Additionally, specific source citations are now given in the metadata for all equations
in Chapter 9 Airy and RelatedFunctions.
A number of additions and changes have been made to the metadata
to reflect new and changed references as well as to how some equations have been derived.
