Title: The Meijer G-function


Abstract:

Many special functions of mathematical physics have a hypergeometric
character and are solutions of a special case of the generalized hyperge-
ometric di_erential equation. The G-functions form a general class of
solutions of this equation. Meijer de_ned these by means of Barnes inte-
grals and studied its properties, in particular its asymptotic expansions.
We will give an introduction to this area by means of an example.

Colloquium coordinators are Prof.dr. A.C.D. van Enter (e-mail : A.C.D.van.Enter@rug.nl) and
Dr. A.V. Kiselev (e-mail: a.v.kiselev rug.nl )
