Walter Somerville A simple method for finding recurrence relations
Suspect relations
Owing to the relations between Bessel functions, we suspect theremight be some between the integrals
ψn−1(z) + ψn+1(z) =2n + 1
zψn(z)
There are also relations between the angular functions
n cos θ dn(θ)− sin θ τn(θ) =√
n2 −m2dn−1(θ)

Question
Do the integrals have relations, and if so, what are they?

Rank
Rank of a matrix is the number of linearly independentrows/columns.
rank
1 2 34 5 65 7 9
= 2
A non-maximum rank indicates that there are some linear relations.

Current state/Future work
We have found a relation between four types of integrals
It’s not obvious how to fill the matrices using this information
We aim to solve these problems, allowing much fastercalculations of the T -matrix
