A standard energy eigenvalue problem for directly solving the stationary states of quantum billiards via boundary integral analysis

By using the series expansions of the Bessel functions for the real and imaginary parts of the free particle Green’s function for the two-dimensional stationary states of quantum billiards, it can be shown that some components of the Green’s function are redundant which can be eliminated to make the...
