An improved Neumann series of Bessel functions representation for solutions of perturbed Bessel equations
share
New representations for an integral kernel of the transmutation operator and for a regular solution of the perturbed Bessel equation of the form -u^''+(ℓ(ℓ+1)/x^2+q(x))u=ω^2u are obtained. The integral kernel is represented as a Fourier-Jacobi series. The solution is represented as a Neumann series of Bessel functions uniformly convergent with respect to ω. For the coefficients of the series convenient for numerical computation recurrent integration formulas are obtained. The new representation improves the ones from arXiv:1609.06679 and arXiv:1712.01363 for large values of ω and ℓ and for non-integer values of ℓ. The results are based on application of several ideas from the classical transmutation (transformation) operator theory, asymptotic formulas for the solution, results connecting the decay rate of the Fourier transform with the smoothness of a function, the Paley-Wiener theorem and some results from constructive approximation theory. We show that the analytical representation obtained among other possible applications offers a simple and efficient numerical method able to compute large sets of eigendata with a nondeteriorating accuracy.
