==Periodic solutions==

For countably many special values of a (in terms of q), called ''eigenvaluescharacteristic values'', the Mathieu equation admits solutions which are periodic with period <math>2\pi</math>. The characteristic values of the Mathiue cosine, sine functions respectively are written <math>a_n(q), \, b_n(q)</math>, where n in '''N'''.
