Abstract We explore the spectral problem of the two photon Rabi model from the point of view of complex differential equations in the Bargmann representation. The wave-functions are automatically entire but to ensure finite norm one has to effectively construct asymptotic expansions. This is achieved by means of the Mellin transformation and convergent factorial series, which allow direct computation of the spectral determinant. By further analysing the differential equation satisfied by the Mellin transform, we obtain a new form of the spectral conditions—in terms of holonomy matrices and contour integrals.
