W 0 (x )的图像，−1/e ≤ x ≤ 4朗伯W函数 （英語：Lambert W function ，又称为欧米加函数 或乘积对数 ），是f (w ) = we w 反函数 ，其中e w 指数函数 ，w 是任意复数。对于任何复数z ，都有：
z
=
W
(
z
)
e
W
(
z
)
.
{\displaystyle z=W(z)e^{W(z)}.}
由于函数f 不是单射 ，因此函数W 是多值 的（除了0以外）。如果我们把x 限制为实数，并要求w 是实数，那么函数仅对于x ≥ −1/e 有定义，在(−1/e , 0)内是多值的；如果加上w ≥ −1的限制，则定义了一个单值函数W 0 (x )（见图）。我们有W 0 (0) = 0，W 0 (−1/e ) = −1。而在[−1/e , 0)内的w ≤ −1分支，则记为W −1 (x )，从W −1 (−1/e ) = −1递减为W −1 (0− ) = −∞。
朗伯W 函数不能用初等函数 来表示。它在组合数学 中有许多用途，例如树 的计算。它可以用来解许多含有指数的方程，也出现在某些微分方程 的解中，例如y' (t ) = a y (t − 1)。

其中 r 1 和 r 2 是不同實常數，為二維多項式的根。於此函數解有單一引數 x 但 r i 和 a o 為函數的參數。如此一來，此一般式類似於 “hypergeometric”（超几何分布）函數與 “Meijer G“，但屬於不同類函數。當 r 1 = r 2 ，(2)的兩方可分解為 (1) 因此其解簡化為標準 W 函數。(2)式代表著 “dilaton”（軸子 ）場的方程，可據此推導線性，雙體重力問題 1+1 維（一空間維與一時間維）當兩不等（靜止）質量，以及，量子力學的特徵能Delta位勢阱 給不等電位於一維空間。 量子力學的一特例特徵能的分析解三體問題，亦即（三維）氢分子離子 。[ 5] x ：

其中 r i 與 s i 是相異實常數而 x 是特徵能和內核距離R之函數。式 (3) 與其特例表示於 (1) 和 (2) 是與一更大類型延遲微分方程 。由于哈代 的“虚假导数”概念，多根的特殊情况得以解决[ 6] Lambert "W" 函數於基礎物理問題之應用並未完全即使標準情況如 (1) 最近在原子，分子，與光學物理領域可見。[ 7]
