Also generally called Bessel functions. Solutions $Z_\nu$ of the Bessel differential equation
\begin{equation}\label{e:Bessel}
z^2 \frac{d^2 Z}{dz^2} + z \frac{dZ}{dz} + (z^2-\nu^2) Z = 0
\end{equation}
where $\nu$ is an arbitrary real or complex number. The cylinder functions are functions of one complex variable.
Cylinder functions of arbitrary order.
If $\nu$ is not an integer, then the general solution of equation \eqref{e:Bessel} has the form
\[
c_1 J_\nu + c_{-1} J_{-\nu}
\]
where $J_{\pm \nu}$ are the so-called cylinder functions of the first kind or Bessel functions of the first kind. They have the expansion
\begin{equation}\label{e:Bessel_f}
J_\nu (z) = \left(\frac{z}{2}\right)^\nu \sum_{m=0}^\infty \frac{(-1)^m}{m! \Gamma (\nu +m +1)} \left(\frac{z}{2}\right)^{2m} \, ,
\end{equation}
where $\Gamma$ is the Gamma-function (i.e. the standard extension of the factorial to a meromorphic function on $\mathbb C$) and $z^\nu$ is given by ${\rm exp}\, (\log z)$, with the convention of having chosen the determination of $\log z$ such that $-\pi < {\rm Im}\, (\log z) \leq \pi$.
The formula \eqref{e:Bessel_f} still makes sense when $\nu$ is a nonnegative integer. For $n\in \mathbb N$ the function $J_{-n}$ is defined to be $(-1)^n J_n$ (the Bessel functions of integer order are usually defined as the coefficients of the following Laurent series:
\[
\left. e^{\frac{z}{2} \left(t - \frac{1}{t}\right)} = \sum_{n=-\infty}^\infty t^n J_n (z) \qquad \right)\, .
\]
The series on the right-hand side of \eqref{e:Bessel_f} converges absolutely and uniformly on any compact subset of $\mathbb C$. The functions $J_\nu$ are holomorphic on $\mathbb C \setminus \{0\}$ (in fact they are entire functions when $\nu$ is an integer). $\infty$ is a singular point, in the sense of the theory of analytic functions.
If $\nu$ is an integer, then $J_{\pm \nu}$ are linearly dependent and the linear combinations of them no longer yield the general solutions of \eqref{e:Bessel}. Therefore, apart from cylinder functions of the first kind one introduces cylinder functions of the second kind, commonly called Bessel functions of the second kind (or Neumann functions, Weber functions, cf. Neumann functions):
\begin{equation}\label{e:Bessel_f2}
Y_\nu (z) = \frac{J_\nu (z) \cos \nu \pi - J_{-\nu} (z)}{\sin \nu \pi} \qquad \mbox{for}\; \nu\not\in \mathbb Z
\end{equation}
\[
Y_n (z) = \lim_{\nu\to n} Y_\nu (z) \qquad \mbox{for}\; n\in \mathbb Z\,
\]
Another, less common notation, for the Bessel functions of the second kind is $N_\nu$. By means of these functions the general solution of equation \eqref{e:Bessel} can be written in the form
\[
Z_\nu = c_1 J_\nu + c_2 Y_\nu\, .
\]
For applications, a third class of solutions of \eqref{e:Bessel}, called cylinder functions of the third kind or Hankel functions are rather important They are denoted by $H^{(1)}_\nu$ and $H^{(2)}_\nu$ and defined as
\begin{align}
&H^{(1)}_\nu = J_\nu + i Y_\nu\\
&H^{(2)}_\nu = J_\nu - i Y_\nu\\
\end{align}
In particular, when $\nu\not\in \mathbb Z$, we have the expressions
\begin{align}
&H^{(1)}_\nu (z) = \frac{J_{-\nu} (z) - e^{-\nu \pi i} J_\nu (z)}{i\sin \nu\pi}\\
&H^{(2)}_\nu (z) = \frac{J_{-\nu} (z) - e^{\nu \pi i} J_\nu (z)}{-i\sin \nu\pi i}\, ,
\end{align}
whereas for integer values $n$ of $\nu$ analogous formulas hold if we replace the right hand sides with their limits as $\nu\to n$. When $\nu\in \mathbb R$, if we restrict the domain of the Hankel functions to the real axis, we get a pair of complex conjugate solutions of \eqref{e:Bessel}, of which the functions $J_\nu$ give the real part and the functions $Y_\nu$ give the imaginary part.
Each pair of functions $\{J_\nu, J_{-\nu}\}$, $\{Y_\nu, Y_{-\nu}\}$ and $\{H^{(1)}_\nu, H^{(2)}_\nu\}$ forms, when $\nu\not\in \mathbb Z$, a fundamental system of solutions of \eqref{e:Bessel}. The pairs $\{J_\nu, Y_\nu\}$ and $\{H^{(1)}_\nu, H^{(2)}_\nu\}$ form each a fundamental system of solutions for every value of $\nu$.
Some notable identities
We have the following important identities relating cylinder functions with their derivatives
\begin{align}
& \pi\, z \left( J_\nu (z) J'_{-\nu} (z) - J'_\nu (z) J_{-\nu} (z)\right) = - 2 \sin \nu\pi\\
& \pi\, z \left( J_\nu (z) Y'_{\nu} (z) - J'_\nu (z) Y_{\nu} (z)\right) = -2\\
& \pi\, z \left( H^{(1)}_\nu (z) (H^{(2)}_\nu)' (z)- (H^{(1)}_\nu)' (z) H^{(2)}_{\nu} (z) \right) = -4i
\end{align}
Similar formulas hold for expressions of the form $J_\nu Y''_\nu - J''_\nu Y_\nu$, $J'_\nu Y''_\nu - J''_\nu Y'_\nu$ and so on (see Section 3.63 of [Wa]).
Moreover, all cylinder functions $Z_\nu$ satisfy the recurrence formulas
\begin{align}
&z Z_{\nu-1} (z) + z Z_{\nu+1} (z) = 2\nu Z_\nu (z)\\
& Z_{\nu-1} (z) - Z_{\nu+1} (z) = 2 Z'_\nu (z)\, .
\end{align}
Modified cylinder functions
Modified cylinder functions are cylinder functions of an imaginary argument. For instance the function $I_\nu$ is defined as
\[
I_\nu (z) = \left\{\begin{array}{l}
&e^{-\frac{1}{2}\nu \pi i} J_\nu \left(z e^{\frac{1}{2}\pi i}\right) \qquad \mbox{if } -\pi < {\rm arg}\, z \leq \frac{\pi}{2}\\
&e^{\frac{3}{2}\nu \pi i} J_\nu \left(z e^{-\frac{3}{2}\pi i}\right) \qquad \mbox{if } \frac{\pi}{2} < {\rm arg}\, z \leq \pi
\end{array}\right.
\]
and the Macdonald function $K_\nu$ as
\[
K_\nu (z) = \frac{\pi i}{2} e^{\frac{1}{2}\nu \pi i} H^{(1)}_\nu (iz) = \frac{\pi i}{2} e^{-\frac{1}{2}\nu \pi i} H^{(1)}_{-\nu} (iz)
\]
(in particular observe that $K_{-\nu} = K_\nu$).
Obviously these functions are solutions of the differential equation
\[
z^2 \frac{d^2 Z}{dz^2} + z \frac{dZ}{dz} - (\nu^2 + z^2) Z = 0
\]
and in fact $\{I_\nu, K_\nu\}$ forms a fundamental system of solutions (similar to what happens for the usual cylinder functions,
the pair $\{I_\nu, I_{-\nu}\}$ forms a fundamental system only when $\nu$ is not an integer).
Moreover, the modified cylinder functions satisfy the recurrence relation
\begin{align}
&z (I_{\nu-1} (z) + I_{\nu+1} (z)) = 2 \nu I_\nu (z)\\
&z (K_{\nu-1} (z) + K_{\nu+1} (z)) = 2 \nu K_\nu (z)\, .
\end{align}

are the ultraspherical polynomials. In expansions of cylinder functions one uses Lommel polynomials (cf. Lommel polynomial), Neumann series, Fourier–Bessel series, and Dirichlet series.
Connected with spherical functions are the Anger functions, the Struve functions, the Lommel functions (cf. Anger function; Struve function; Lommel function), as well as the Kelvin functions and the Airy functions.
Cylinder functions can be defined as limit functions of spherical functions in the following way:
Here, asymptotic representations of spherical functions are connected with cylinder functions and vice versa, for example, as in Hilb's formula
and in the expansions of Macdonald, Watson, Tricomi, and others (see [1], [2], [4]).
