Abstract: We derive eigenfunction expansions for a fundamental solution of Laplace's equation in three-dimensional Euclidean space in 5-cyclidic coordinates. There are three such expansions in terms of internal and external 5-cyclidic harmonics of first, second and third kind. The internal and external 5-cyclidic harmonics are expressed by solutions of a Fuchsian differential equation with five regular singular points.
