Can anyone please define in detail about these???
1) What is the selectivity of a filter?
2) What is the
mathematical expression for selectivity?

Hi Antonio,
Selectivity
is usually another name for how much attenuation is available in the
stopband of a filter in a given frequency range. It depends on what
type of filter it is to what the mathematical representation will be.
This is because different filter approximations will have different
transfer functions. However, the more poles in the transfer function
will make the resulting circuit act as the ideal 'brick wall'. A narrowband
system will require a filter with very high selectivity while a wideband
system will require a low selectivity.
