Zusammenfassung:A method for calculating eigenvalues λ^sub mn^(c) corresponding to the wave spheroidal functions in the case of a complex parameter c is proposed, and a comprehensive numerical analysis is performed. It is shown that some points c ^sub s^ are the branch points of the functions λ^sub mn^(c) with different indexes n ^sub 1^ and n ^sub 2^ so that the value λ^sub mn^ ^sub 1^ (c ^sub s^) is a double one: λ^sub mn^ ^sub 1^ (c ^sub s^) = λ^sub mn^ ^sub 2^ (c ^sub s^). The numerical analysis suggests that, for each fixed m, all the branches of the eigenvalues λ^sub mn^(c) corresponding to the even spheroidal functions form a complete analytic function of the complex argument c. Similarly, all the branches of the eigenvalues λ^sub mn^(c) corresponding to the odd spheroidal functions form a complete analytic function of c. To perform highly accurate calculations of the branch points c ^sub s^ of the double eigenvalues λ^sub mn^(c ^sub s^), the Padé approximants, the Hermite-Padé quadratic approximants, and the generalized Newton iterative method are used. A large number of branch points are calculated.[PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]
