Let us denote by $Z_{b}(n)$ the number of trailing zeroes in the base b expansion of $n!$. In this paper we study the connection between the expression of $\vartheta(b):=\lim_{n\to \infty}Z_{b}(n)/n$ in base $b$, and that of $Z_{b}(b^{k})$.…

We examine the asymptotic behaviour of the zeros of sections of the binomial expansion. That is, we consider the distribution of zeros of $\displaystyle B_{r,n}(z) = \sum_{k=0}^r {n \choose k} z^k$, where $1 \le r < n$.

We count the number of distinct (scattered) subwords occurring in the base-b expansion of the non-negative integers. More precisely, we consider the sequence $(S_b(n))_{n\ge 0}$ counting the number of positive entries on each row of a…

The real and complex zeros of the parabolic cylinder function $U(a,z)$ are studied. Asymptotic expansions for the zeros are derived, involving the zeros of Airy functions, and these are valid for $a$ positive or negative and large in…

The motion in the complex plane of the zeros to various zeta functions is investigated numerically. First the Hurwitz zeta function is considered and an accurate formula for the distribution of its zeros is suggested. Then functions which…

Understanding the distribution of digits in the expansions of perfect powers in different bases is difficult. Rather than consider the asymptotic digit distributions, we consider the base-10 digits of a restricted sequence of powers of two.…

For a power series which converges in some neighborhood of the origin in the complex plane, it turns out that the zeros of its partial sums---its sections---often behave in a controlled manner, producing intricate patterns as they converge…

Following Wiener, we consider the zeroes of Gaussian analytic functions in a strip in the complex plane, with translation-invariant distribution. We show that the variance of the number of zeroes in a long horizontal rectangle $[0,T]\times…

We demonstrate how the asymptotics for large $|z|$ of the generalised Bessel function \[{}_0\Psi_1(z)=\sum_{n=0}^\infty\frac{z^n}{\Gamma(an+b) n!},\] where $a>-1$ and $b$ is any number (real or complex), may be obtained by exploiting the…

In this paper we study the sequence of strings of $k$ last nonzero digits of $n!$ in a given base $b$. We determine for which $b$ this sequence is automatic and show how to generate it using a uniform morphism. We also compute how often…

In this note, we derive and interpret hidden zeros of tree-level amplitudes of various theories, including Yang-Mills, non-linear sigma model, special Galileon, Dirac-Born-Infeld, and gravity, by utilizing universal expansions of tree-level…

We explore how the asymptotic structure of a random $n$-term weak integer composition of $m$ evolves, as $m$ increases from zero. The primary focus is on establishing thresholds for the appearance and disappearance of substructures. These…

For a fixed integer base $b\geq2$, we consider the number of compositions of $1$ into a given number of powers of $b$ and, related, the maximum number of representations a positive integer can have as an ordered sum of powers of $b$. We…

We study fluctuations in the number of zeros of random analytic functions given by a Taylor series whose coefficients are independent complex Gaussians. When the functions are entire, we find sharp bounds for the asymptotic growth rate of…

In this work, it is introduced a new function based on the non-trivial zeros of the Riemann-zeta function. Such function shows an interesting behavior: when the argument of the function grows, it changes from a pseudo-random behavior to a…

Let $F$ be an entire function of exponential type represented by the Taylor series \[ F(z) = \sum_{n\ge 0} \omega_n \frac{z^n}{n!} \] with unimodular coefficients $|\omega_n|=1$. We show that either the counting function $n_F(r)$ of zeroes…

Let $I(b,d,k)$ be the subseries of the harmonic series keeping the integers having exactly $k$ occurrences of the digit $d$ in base $b$. We prove the existence of an asymptotic expansion to all orders in descending powers of $b$, for fixed…

The main aim of this article is a careful investigation of the asymptotic behavior of zeros of Bernoulli polynomials of the second kind. It is shown that the zeros are all real and simple. The asymptotic expansions for the small, large, and…

We consider a two dimensional reflecting random walk on the nonnegative integer quadrant. This random walk is assumed to be skip free in the direction to the boundary of the quadrant, but may have unbounded jumps in the opposite direction,…

The properties of several functions are employed to investigate the zeros of the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(a+bi)$ $(0<a<1, b\neq 0)$. If the zeros of the zeta function have not the form $\frac{1}{2}+ib$ where $i=\sqrt{-1}$, we derive a…
