AbstractWe show that the value distribution (complex oscillation) of solutions of certain periodic second order ordinary differential equations studied by Bank, Laine and Langley is closely related to confluent hypergeometric functions, Bessel functions and Bessel polynomials. As a result, we give a complete characterization of the zero-distribution in the sense of Nevanlinna theory of the solutions for two classes of the ODEs. Our approach uses special functions and their asymptotics. New results concerning finiteness of the number of zeros (finite-zeros) problem of Bessel and Coulomb wave functions with respect to the parameters are also obtained as a consequence. We demonstrate that the problem for the remaining class of ODEs not covered by the above “special function approach” can be described by a classical Heine problem for differential equations that admit polynomial solutions.

In this paper we used a new class of special functions and special polynomials which are solutions different Sturm Liouvile differential equations of second order. These functions form a basis of a space of square integrable functions over set of a real numbers. We investigated some properties of these polynomials and established some recurrence formulas. Using a new class of special functions, we obtained some useful summation formulas and recurrence formulas.

We consider the second-order linear differential equation [Formula: see text] where x ∈ [0, X], X > 0, α ∈ (-∞, 2), Λ is a large complex parameter and g is a continuous function. The asymptotic method designed by Olver [Asymptotics and Special Functions (Academic Press, New York, 1974)] gives the Poincaré-type asymptotic expansion of two independent solutions of the equation in inverse powers of Λ. We add initial conditions to the differential equation and consider the corresponding initial value problem. By using the Green's function of an auxiliary problem, we transform the initial value problem into a Volterra integral equation of the second kind. Then using a fixed point theorem, we construct a sequence of functions that converges to the unique solution of the problem. This sequence has also the property of being an asymptotic expansion for large Λ (not of Poincaré-type) of the solution of the problem. Moreover, we show that the idea may be applied also to nonlinear differential equations with a large parameter.

The generalised Bell and Laguerre polynomials of fractional-order in complex z-plane are defined. Some properties are studied. Moreover, we proved that these polynomials are univalent solutions for second order differential equations. Also, the Laguerre-type of some special functions are introduced.
