Extract

1. Particular series of conal and toroidal functions have been studied by various authors*, but so far no method has been given of expanding an arbitrary function in such a series. Ordinary methods fail, since conal functions (and also toroidal functions) are not orthogonal, although they form a complete set. In this paper I give an expansion theorem.
