Some group-theoretic twists in the ancient method of separation of variables that can be used to provide a foundation for much of special function theory are shown. In particular, it is shown explicitly that all special functions that arise via separation of variables in the equations of mathematical physics can be studied using group theory.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51942454821152,"sku":"NEW0521177391","price":88.8,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/symmetry-and-separation-of-variables-encyclopedia-of-mathematics-and-its-applications-series-number-4-0521177391","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
