1: 9.15 Mathematical Applications
Airy functions play an indispensable role in the construction of uniform asymptotic expansions for contour integrals with coalescing saddle points, and for solutions of linear second-order ordinary differential equations with a simple turning point. …

  • 10: 3.5 Quadrature
    To avoid cancellation we try to deform the path to pass through a saddle point in such a way that the maximum contribution of the integrand is derived from the neighborhood of the saddle point. … with saddle point at t = 1 , and when c = 1 the vertical path intersects the real axis at the saddle point. … If f is meromorphic, with poles near the saddle point, then the foregoing method can be modified. …
