Approximate Closed-Form Formulas for the Zeros of the Bessel Polynomials
We find approximate expressions x̃(k,n,a) and ỹ(k,n,a) for the real and imaginary parts of the kth zero zk=xk+iyk of the Bessel polynomial yn(x;a). To obtain these closed-form formulas we use the fact that the points of well-defined curves in the complex plane are limit points of the zeros of the n...

| Summary: | We find approximate expressions x̃(k,n,a) and ỹ(k,n,a) for the real and imaginary parts of the kth zero zk=xk+iyk of the Bessel polynomial yn(x;a). To obtain these closed-form formulas we use the fact that the points of well-defined curves in the complex plane are limit points of the zeros of the normalized Bessel polynomials. Thus, these zeros are first computed numerically through an implementation of the electrostatic interpretation formulas and then, a fit to the real and imaginary parts as functions of k, n and a is obtained. It is shown that the resulting complex number x̃(k,n,a)+iỹ(k,n,a) is O(1/n2)-convergent to zk for fixed k. |
