| contents | Asymptotic expansions are derived for Gegenbauer (ultraspherical) polynomials for large order $n$ that are uniformly valid for unbounded complex values of the argument $z$, including the real interval $0 \leq z \leq 1$ in which the zeros in the right half plane are located: symmetry extends the results to the left half plane. The approximations are derived from the differential equation satisfied by these polynomials, and other independent solutions are also considered. For large $n$ this equation is characterized by having a simple pole, and expansions valid at this singularity involve Bessel functions and slowly varying coefficient functions. The expansions for these functions are simpler than previous approximations, in particular being computable to a high degree of accuracy. Simple explicit error bounds are derived which only involve elementary functions, and thereby provide a simplification of previous expansions and error bounds associated with differential equations having a large parameter and simple pole. |
