The H-Function: Theory and Applications by A.M. Mathai,Ram Kishore Saxena,Hans J. Haubold

TheH-function or popularly identified within the literature as Fox’sH-function has lately chanced on functions in a wide number of difficulties hooked up with response, diffusion, reaction–diffusion, engineering and communique, fractional vary- tial and crucial equations, many components of theoretical physics, statistical distribution conception, and so on. one of many typical books and so much mentioned ebook at the subject is the 1978 e-book of Mathai and Saxena. on account that then, the topic has grown much, often within the elds of functions. as a result of well known call for, the authors have been asked to - grade and produce out a revised version of the 1978 ebook. It used to be determined to convey out a brand new e-book, more often than not facing fresh functions in statistical distributions, pa- manner types, nonextensive statistical mechanics, astrophysics difficulties, fractional calculus, and so on. and to use the services of Hans J. Haubold in astrophysics quarter additionally. It used to be determined to con ne the dialogue toH-function of 1 scalar variable basically. Matrix variable instances and plenty of variable circumstances usually are not mentioned intimately, yet an perception into those components is given. while going from one variable to many variables, there's not anything referred to as a distinct bivariate or multivariate analogue of a givenfunction. no matter what be the factors used, there is manydifferentfunctions quali ed to be bivariate or multivariate analogues of a given univariate functionality. the various bivariate and multivariateH-functions, at the moment within the literature, also are wondered by means of many authors.
