A uniform asymptotic expansion for the jacobi polynomials with explicit remainder

Research output: Journal Publications and ReviewsRGC 21 - Publication in refereed journalpeer-review

Abstract

A new asymptotic expansion is derived for the Jacobi polynonmial Pn(α,β)(cos θ) asn → ∞ which holds uniformly for Θ ∈ [0, π/2]. An explicit expression is also given for the error term associated with the expansion. Our approach begins with a contour integral representation, followed by a suitable canonical transformation
