At the internet site of The Heun Project, a strong declaration is made that only Maple incorporates Heun functions, which arise in the solution of differential equations that are extremely important in physics, such as the solution of Schroedinger's equation for the hydrogen atom.  Indeed solutions appear in Heun functions, which are highly obscure and complicated to use because of their five or six arguments, but when one tries to convert them to another function, nothing seems to work.  For instance, if one inquires of FunctionAdvisor(display, HeunG), the resulting list contains

"The location of the "branch cuts" for HeunG are [sic, is] unknown ..." followed by several other "unknown" and an "unable". Such a solution of a differential equation is hollow.

Incidentally, Maple's treatment of integral equations is very weak -- only linear equations with simple solutions, although procedures by David Stoutemyer from 40 years ago are available to enhance this capability.

When can we expect these aspects of Maple to work properly, for applications in physics?

hi, is there a way to collect all commands in one place which have been used during a clickable math session of a document? in fact this would help in creating automated tasks.

How I can get a list of all label refernces of a worksheet. In fact I want to write a small code which would produce the LaTex output (written to a text file) for my indicated labels. thanx

I am new to Maple. I am working though the manual and in chapter two I tried to get the derivative of ln(x^2+1). I am getting something completely different that the actual derivative. I tried a simple derivatie (the derivative of 2x and get 0). I do not know what I am doing wrong. Any help will be appreciated.

we always have subscript variable in the math book, but how could this be natral done in maple

I want to get a seq a₁ a₂ a₃

seq(a[i],i=1..3)

but how could I get a  a_ij

seq(a[i_j],i=1..3);

and

seq(a[ij],i=1..3);  both was not right

I am currently running into an issue where the numerical solution to an equation (involving an integral, yes, but the value I am solving for is simly a constant in the integral) is taking significantly longer than I would hope it would to solve. I am solving a similar equation (with a simpler expression) and it is significantly easier to solve, and I am hoping for that kind of speed.

On the last two lines in the attachment, I have two expressions. The penultimate expression is the baseline speed that I would like to match. The last expression is the fsolve I would like to speed up.

Is there any way to numerically speed up the process? I found that when I did tracelast after halting the process, there were HUGE numbers being added and subtracted, multiplied and divided. Not only did this significantly slow down the proecss but it also adds much numerical instability, which I would also like to avoid.

All help would be appreciated.

how to compute non-reduced hilbert series?

hilbertseries return a simplified version of hilbert series,

how to output non-simplified version of hilbert series?

Hi all,

I google and found a program using C# connect with Maple. The Maple file is mla file - a pakage library type of Maple. I want to review data structure and all interfaces funtions to understand the way to implement this features.

Please help me the way to read the original Maple code. I uploaded the .mla file into mediafire if you want to review it. Link http://www.mediafire.com/download/abd9kpk3q6oq8lb/CHEMISTRY.mla

Why the disparity in the solution of P1 and P2? P1 uses finite difference while P2 uses midrich.

See them here P1.mw     and   P2.mw

I want to put the solution obtained from ShowSolution() command of Student[Calculus1] into my LaTeX file. How I can achieve that?

I succeeded in getting latex of ExpandSteps because it was a module, but ShowSolution() is not a module.

How can one use maple to linearized nonlinear ODE of this type Linearize.mw

with maple.

Best regards.

How can one deduce values of f(eta), diff(f(eta),eta) and diff(f(eta),eta$2) from values of f1,f2,f3,f4,.. in the results of the finite difference here Trial.mw . I need the outcome for f and its 1st and 2nd derivatives as listed above. Please help.

How do I compute the Lyapunov exponents for Lorenz system

Hello, my problem is that I've changed in tools maple default mode to "Maple input" from "2-d" I've aplied it globbaly and it doesnt'work. Still when type Enter it switch automatically to 2-d Math, and I have to change it by Ctrl-M to 1-d. Any ideas how to solve it? I want 2-d just to output.

Hi there,

I've got the following differential equation system:,

dU/dt = delta·dotD -lambda·U - kappa·U^2
dL/dt = (1-phi)·lambda·U + 1/4 ·kappa·U^2

being phi, delta, kappa, lambda, kappa some fixed parameters of the system, and where dotD (the derivative wrt time of a function D), which is defined a piecewise funtion:

dotD(t)=1/(3·T1)·DT for t in [0,T1]

dotD(t)=2/(3·(T2-T1-T))·DT for t in [T1+T,T2]

where T and DT are also known, and T1 approaches 0, and T2 approaches T1+T.

Setting the equation system in Maple and trying to solve it, gives a NULL result. However, trying to solve each piece separately seems to work fine.

Why is this?

Furthermore, taking limits for the [T1+T,T2] part (having solved each piece separately) yields an invalid limits point error. Ain't the possibility to take limits for both parameters at the same time?

Any ideas?

This is the Maple worksheet: MaplePrimes_LQ_model_solve.mw

Thank you.
