The second solution of the Mathieu equation
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 24 October 2008
Extract
The fact that the Mathieu equation, and, as was proved in the preceding paper, the more general Hill equation, can admit of but one solution of period π or 2π, suggests the problem of determining how far the second solution deviates from periodicity when the first solution has either the period π or the period 2π
