T. Yano et al., Numerical solutions of the eigenvalue problems of Sturm-Liouville type by using power series approximation about regular-singular points, PROG T PH S, (138), 2000, pp. 747-749
Our Milne-Spline method, though found very useful for most cases of the Stu
rm-Liouville differential equations, I-las not worked well for the associat
ed Laguerre and Legendre equations if m = 0 due to admixture of singular so
lutions inevitable in numerical computations. This paper shows that; the us
e of power series approximation about the regular-singular points resolves
the difficulties.
