Mathematical function
The Wright omega function along part of the real axis In mathematics , the Wright omega function or Wright function ,[note 1] ω , is defined in terms of the Lambert W function as:
ω ( z ) = W ⌈ I m ( z ) − π 2 π ⌉ ( e z ) . {\displaystyle \omega (z)=W_{{\big \lceil }{\frac {\mathrm {Im} (z)-\pi }{2\pi }}{\big \rceil }}(e^{z}).} One of the main applications of this function is in the resolution of the equation z = ln(z ), as the only solution is given by z = e −ω(π i ) .
y = ω(z ) is the unique solution, when z ≠ x ± i π {\displaystyle z\neq x\pm i\pi } x ≤ −1, of the equation y + ln(y ) = z . Except on those two rays, the Wright omega function is continuous , even analytic .
Properties [ edit ] The Wright omega function satisfies the relation W k ( z ) = ω ( ln ( z ) + 2 π i k ) {\displaystyle W_{k}(z)=\omega (\ln(z)+2\pi ik)}
It also satisfies the differential equation
d ω d z = ω 1 + ω {\displaystyle {\frac {d\omega }{dz}}={\frac {\omega }{1+\omega }}} wherever ω is analytic (as can be seen by performing separation of variables and recovering the equation ln ( ω ) + ω = z {\displaystyle \ln(\omega )+\omega =z} integral can be expressed as:
∫ w n d z = { ω n + 1 − 1 n + 1 + ω n n if n ≠ − 1 , ln ( ω ) − 1 ω if n = − 1. {\displaystyle \int w^{n}\,dz={\begin{cases}{\frac {\omega ^{n+1}-1}{n+1}}+{\frac {\omega ^{n}}{n}}&{\mbox{if }}n\neq -1,\\\ln(\omega )-{\frac {1}{\omega }}&{\mbox{if }}n=-1.\end{cases}}} Its Taylor series around the point a = ω a + ln ( ω a ) {\displaystyle a=\omega _{a}+\ln(\omega _{a})}
ω ( z ) = ∑ n = 0 + ∞ q n ( ω a ) ( 1 + ω a ) 2 n − 1 ( z − a ) n n ! {\displaystyle \omega (z)=\sum _{n=0}^{+\infty }{\frac {q_{n}(\omega _{a})}{(1+\omega _{a})^{2n-1}}}{\frac {(z-a)^{n}}{n!}}} where
q n ( w ) = ∑ k = 0 n − 1 ⟨ ⟨ n + 1 k ⟩ ⟩ ( − 1 ) k w k + 1 {\displaystyle q_{n}(w)=\sum _{k=0}^{n-1}{\bigg \langle }\!\!{\bigg \langle }{\begin{matrix}n+1\\k\end{matrix}}{\bigg \rangle }\!\!{\bigg \rangle }(-1)^{k}w^{k+1}} in which
⟨ ⟨ n k ⟩ ⟩ {\displaystyle {\bigg \langle }\!\!{\bigg \langle }{\begin{matrix}n\\k\end{matrix}}{\bigg \rangle }\!\!{\bigg \rangle }} is a second-order Eulerian number .
