Hermite Calculus

We develop a new method of umbral nature to treat blocks of Her mite and of Hermite like poly- nomials as independent algebraic quantities. The Calculus we propose allows the formulation of a number of ”practical rules” allowing significant simplific ations in computational problem

On two-dimensional Bessel functions

The general properties of two-dimensional generalized Bessel functions are discussed. Various asymptotic approximations are derived and applied to analyze the basic structure of the two-dimensional Bessel functions as well as their nodal lines.Comment: 25 pages, 17 figure
