Bessel–Maitland function explained

In mathematics, the Bessel–Maitland function, or Wright generalized Bessel function, is a generalization of the Bessel function, introduced by . The word "Maitland" in the name of the function seems to be the result of confusing Edward Maitland Wright's middle and last names. It is given by

J\mu,\nu(z)=\sumk\ge

(-z)k
\Gamma(k\mu+\nu+1)k!
