We review some aspects of the theory of spherical Bessel functions and Struve functions by means of an operational procedure essentially of umbral nature, capable of providing the straightforward evaluation of their definite integrals and of successive derivatives. The method we propose allows indeed the formal reduction of these family of functions to elementary ones of Gaussian type. We study the problem in general terms and present a formalism capable of providing a unifying point of view including Anger and Weber functions too. The link to the multi-index Bessel functions is also briefly discussed.
In this paper, sums represented in (3) are studied. The expressions are derived in terms of Bessel functions of the first and second kinds and their integrals. Further, we point out the integrals can be written as a Meijer G function.
An operatorial method, already employed to formulate a generalization of the Ramanujan master theorem, is applied to the evaluation of integrals of various type. This technique provide a very flexible and powerful tool yielding new results encompassing various aspects of the special function theory.
The close form of some integrals involving recently developed generalized k-Struve functions is obtained. The outcome of these integrations is expressed in terms of generalized Wright functions. Several special cases are deduced which lead to some known results.
In this paper necessary and sufficient conditions are deduced for the starlikeness of Bessel functions of the first kind and their derivatives of the second and third order by using a result of Shah and Trimble about transcendental entire functions with univalent derivatives and some Mittag-Leffler expansions for the derivatives of Bessel functions of the first kind, as well as some results on the zeros of these functions.
In the present investigation our main aim is to give lower bounds for the ratio of some normalized $q$-Bessel functions and their sequences of partial sums. Especially, we consider Jacksons second and third $q$-Bessel functions and we apply one normalization for each of them.
