Abstract

In this paper we consider Bessel equations of the type t2X(2)(t)+tX(1)(t)+(t2I-A2)X(t)=0, where A is an n×n complex matrix and X(t) is an n×m matrix for t > 0. Following the ideas of the scalar case we introduce the concept of a fundamental set of solutions for the above equation expressed in terms of the data dimension. This concept allows us to give an explicit closed form solution of initial and two-point boundary value problems related to the Bessel equation.
