§12.5(iii) Mellin–Barnes Integrals

ⓘ

Keywords:: Mellin–Barnes type, integral representations, parabolic cylinder functions
Notes:: See Miller (1955, p. 26). In this reference the conditions on $a$ given in Eqs. (12.5.8) and (12.5.9) are missing. These conditions are needed to ensure that in each integrand no poles of the two gamma functions coincide.
