Abstract: The modified biharmonic equation is encountered in a variety of application areas, including streamfunction formulations of the Navier-Stokes equations. We develop a separation of variables representation for this equation in polar coordinates, for either the interior or exterior of a disk, and derive a new class of special functions which makes the approach stable. We discuss how these functions can be used in conjunction with fast algorithms to accelerate the solution of the modified biharmonic equation or the "bi-Helmholtz" equation in more complex geometries.
