Relativistic Coulomb Integrals and Zeilberger’s Holonomic Systems Approach II

  • Conference paper
Algebraic and Algorithmic Aspects of Differential and Integral Operators (AADIOS 2012)

Abstract

We derive the recurrence relations for relativistic Coulomb integrals directly from the integral representations with the help of computer algebra methods. In order to manage the computational complexity of this problem, we employ holonomic closure properties in a sophisticated way.
