Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Functions of a Complex Variable, Vol. 3
As these students often do not intend to specialize in mathe maties, many topics which might properly find a place in a first course in the function theory have not been treated; for example, Riemann's surfaces. On the other hand the author, having in mind the needs of students of applied mathematics, has dwelt at some length on the theory of linear differential equations, especially as regards the functions of Legendre, Laplace, Bessel, and Lame. As a Splendid application of the principles of the function theory and also on account of their intrinsic value, three chapters have been devoted to the elliptic functions.
