erfc ( x ) {\displaystyle \operatorname 2 (x)} for non-negative x {\displaystyle x} is known as Craig's formula:[5] erfc ( x | x ≥ 0 ) = 2 π ∫ 0 π / 2 exp ( − x 2 sin 2 θ ) d θ . {\displaystyle \operatorname 0 (x|x\geq 0)={\frac Φ 9{\pi }}\int _ Φ 8^{\pi /2}\exp \left(-{\frac Φ 7}{\sin ^ Φ 6\theta }}\right)d\theta \,.} The imaginary error function, denoted erfi, is defined as erfi ( x ) = − i erf ( i x ) = 2 π ∫ 0 x e t 2 d t = 2 π e x 2 D ( x ) , {\displaystyle {\begin Φ 0\operatorname − 9 (x)&=-i\operatorname − 8 (ix)\\&={\frac − 7{\sqrt {\pi }}}\int _ − 6^ − 5e^ − 4}\,\mathrm − 3 t\\&={\frac − 2{\sqrt {\pi }}}e^ − 1}D(x),\end − 0}} where D(x) is the Dawson function (which can be used instead of erfi to avoid arithmetic overflow[3]). Despite the name "imaginary error function", erfi ( x ) {\displaystyle \operatorname 8 (x)} is real when x is real. When the error function is evaluated for arbitrary complex arguments z, the resulting complex error function is usually discussed in scaled form as th

defined by (1) (2) It is implemented in the Wolfram Language as Erfc[z]. Note that some authors (e.g., Whittaker and Watson 1990, p.341) define without the leading factor of . For , (3) where https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Error_function is the incomplete gamma function. The derivative is given by (4) and the indefinite integral by (5) It has the special values (6) (7) (8) It satisfies the identity (9) It has definite integrals (10) (11) (12) For , is bounded by (13) Min Max Re Im Erfc can also be extended to the complex plane, as illustrated above. A generalization is obtained from the erfc differential http://mathworld.wolfram.com/Erfc.html equation (14) (Abramowitz and Stegun 1972, p.299; Zwillinger 1997, p.122). The general solution is then (15) where is the repeated erfc integral. For integer , (16) (17) (18) (19) (Abramowitz and Stegun 1972, p.299), where is a confluent hypergeometric function of the first kind and is a gamma function.
