| Feb 4, 2022 at 21:12 | comment | added | Alexandre Eremenko | This cannot be a confluent Heun equation since Heun equation has 4 singularities, and under the "confluence" some of them must collide. So you will obtain less than 4. | |
| Feb 3, 2022 at 4:27 | comment | added | Michael Renardy | With that said, even though software packages include Heun functions, actually using them may be tricky due to branch cuts. Determining where the software puts branch cuts and how to change it is far from easy. I once tried and got nowhere. | |
