The modified Bessel function of the second kind is defined by $$K_{\nu}(z)=\dfrac{\pi}{2} \dfrac{I_{-\nu}(z)-I_{\nu}(z)}{\sin(\nu \pi)},$$ where $I_{\nu}$ is the modified Bessel function of the first kind.

Properties

Theorem

The following formula holds: $$\mathrm{Ai}(z)=\dfrac{1}{\pi} \sqrt{\dfrac{z}{3}} \mathrm{K}_{\frac{1}{3}} \left( \dfrac{2}{3} x^{\frac{3}{2}} \right),$$ where $\mathrm{Ai}$ is the Airy Ai function and $K_{\nu}$ denotes the modified Bessel $K$.
