The eigenvalue equation on the Eguchi-Hanson space
  We consider the eigenvalue equation for the Laplace-Beltrami operator acting on scalar functions on the non-compact Eguchi-Hanson space. The corresponding differential equation is reducible to a confluent Heun equation with Ince symbol [0,2,1_2]. We construct approximations for the eigenfunctions and their asymptotic scattering phases with the help of the Liouville-Green approximation (WKB). Furthermore, for specific discrete eigenvalues obtained by a continued T-fraction we construct the solution by the Frobenius method and determine its scattering phase by a monodromy computation.
