A polynomial family $\{p_n(x)\}$ is Appell if it is given by $\frac{e^{xt}}{g(t)} = \sum_{n=0}^\infty p_n(x)t^n$ or, equivalently, $p_n'(x) = p_{n-1}(x)$. If $g(t)$ is an entire function, $g(0)\neq 0$, with at least one zero, the…

We give asymptotics for shifted convolutions of the form $$\sum_{n < X} \frac{\sigma_{2u}(n,\chi)\sigma_{2v}(n+k,\psi)}{n^{u+v}}$$ for nonzero complex numbers $u,v$ and nontrivial Dirichlet characters $\chi,\psi$. We use the technique of…

We consider random orthonormal polynomials $$ P_{n}(x)=\sum_{i=0}^{n}\xi_{i}p_{i}(x), $$ where $\xi_{0}$, . . . , $\xi_{n}$ are independent random variables with zero mean, unit variance and uniformly bounded $(2+\ep_0)$-moments, and…

The purpose of this note is to characterize those orthogonal polynomials sequences $(P_n)_{n\geq0}$ for which $$ \pi(x)\mathcal{D}_q P_n(x)=(a_n x+b_n)P_n(x)+c_n P_{n-1}(x),\quad n=0,1,2,\dots, $$ where $\mathcal{D}_q$ is the Askey-Wilson…

We show that every real nonnegative polynomial $f$ can be approximated as closely as desired by a sequence of polynomials $\{f_\epsilon\}$ that are sums of squares. Each $f_\epsilon$ has a simple et explicit form in terms of $f$ and…

A new approach to summation of divergent field-theoretical series is suggested. It is based on the Borel transformation combined with a conformal mapping and does not imply the exact asymptotic parameters to be known. The method is tested…

Sequence transformations are valuable numerical tools that have been used with considerable success for the acceleration of convergence and the summation of diverging series. However, our understanding of their theoretical properties is far…

The primary purpose of this paper is to investigate the question of invertibility of the sum of operators. The setting is bounded and unbounded linear operators. Some interesting examples and consequences are given. As an illustrative…

We show that any differential operator of the form $L(y)=\sum_{k=0}^{k=N} a_{k}(x) y^{(k)}$, where $a_k$ is a real polynomial of degree $\leq k$, has all real eigenvalues in the space of polynomials of degree at most n, for all n. The…

We study sums of powers of Fibonacci and Lucas polynomials of the form $% \sum_{n=0}^{q}F_{tsn}^{k}(x) $ and $\sum_{n=0}^{q}L_{tsn}^{k}% (x) $, where $s,t,k$ are given natural numbers, together with the corresponding alternating sums…

We consider several families of binomial sum identities whose definition involves the absolute value function. In particular, we consider centered double sums of the form \[S_{\alpha,\beta}(n) :=…

Consider a random trigonometric polynomial $X_n: \mathbb R \to \mathbb R$ of the form $$ X_n(t) = \sum_{k=1}^n \left( \xi_k \sin (kt) + \eta_k \cos (kt)\right), $$ where $(\xi_1,\eta_1),(\xi_2,\eta_2),\ldots$ are independent identically…

We compute the sum and the alternating sum of the reciprocals of triangular numbers using two standard methods from calculus: a telescoping series approach and a power series approach. We then extend these results to generalized…

An approach is suggested defining effective sums of divergent series in the form of self-similar exponential approximants. The procedure of constructing these approximants from divergent series with arbitrary noninteger powers is developed.…

Euler gives a long introduction, giving all the arguments for and against the use of divergent series in calculus and then gives his own definition of the sum of a diverging series. Then in the second half of this paper he evaluates the the…

Many combinatorial sequences (for example, the Catalan and Motzkin numbers) may be expressed as the constant term of $P(x)^k Q(x)$, for some Laurent polynomials $P(x)$ and $Q(x)$ in the variable $x$ with integer coefficients. Denoting such…
