As the title suggests, we give a formula for the $n^{th}$ derivative of a quotient of two functions, analogous to Leibniz's formula for the product. This particular note has remained unpublished since 2007 (available only my website),…
The number of ordered factorizations and the number of recursive divisors are two related arithmetic functions that are recursively defined. But it is hard to construct explicit representations of these functions. Taking advantage of their…
We present theory for general partial derivatives of matrix functions on the form $f(A(x))$ where $A(x)$ is a matrix path of several variables ($x=(x_1,\dots,x_j)$). Building on results by Mathias [SIAM J. Matrix Anal. Appl., 17 (1996), pp.…
This paper considers functional series whose terms are higher-order derivatives of Chebyshev polynomials of the second kind, where the degree of the polynomial is related to the order of the derivative. Analytic summation is used to…
We compute the nth derivative of a function given parametrically, and of one given implicitly, and some history for both problems. I am posting this version of the paper at the request of Shaul Zemel, whose forthcoming paper The…
Humbert confluent hypergeometric functions of two variables arise in many problems of mathematical physics and applied analysis, yet their behavior with respect to parameters has not been systematically studied. In this paper we investigate…
This paper presents a reformulation of the Leibniz product rule as a finite sum that expresses the fractional derivative of the product of two differentiable functions. This paper then proves the cases for when the product consists of an…
Double Hurwitz numbers enumerate branched covers of $\mathbb{CP}^1$ with prescribed ramification over two points and simple ramification elsewhere. In contrast to the single case, their underlying geometry is not well understood. In…
A recursion formula for derivatives of Chebyshev polynomials is replaced by an explicit formula.
We develop a new approach to build the eigenfunctions of a translationally shape-invariant potential. For this we show that their logarithmic derivatives can be expressed as terminating continued fractions in an appropriate variable. We…
We consider here a particular quadratic equation linking two elements of a C-Algebra. By analysing powers of the unknowns, it appears a double sequence of polynomials related to classical Bernoulli polynomials. We get the generating…
By employing contour integration the derivation of a generalized double finite series involving the Hurwitz-Lerch zeta function is used to derive closed form formulae in terms of special functions. We use this procedure to find special…
We present closed forms for several functions that are fundamental in number theory and we explain the method used to obtain them. Concretely, we find formulas for the p-adic valuation, the number-of-divisors function, the sum-of-divisors…
We define a new Hurwitz problem which is essentially a small core of the simple Hurwitz problem. The corresponding Hurwitz numbers have simpler formulae, satisfy effective recursion relations and determine the simple Hurwitz numbers. We…
All squigonometric functions admit derivatives that can be expressed as polynomials of the squine and cosquine. We introduce a general framework that allows us to determine these polynomials recursively. We also provide an explicit formula…
According to celebrated Hurwitz theorem, there exists four division algebras consisting of R (real numbers), C (complex numbers), H (quaternions) and O (octonions). Keeping in view the utility of octonion variable we have tried to extend…
In the paper, by virtue of the famous formula of Fa\`a di Bruno, with the aid of several identities of partial Bell polynomials, by means of a formula for derivatives of the ratio of two differentiable functions, and with availability of…
A theory of a derivator version of six-functor-formalisms is developed, using an extension of the notion of fibered multiderivator due to the author. Using the language of (op)fibrations of 2-multicategories this has (like a usual fibered…
The development of high-degree interpolation polynomials which use the values of the function and its subsequent derivatives is reformulated. Also, we present a variant of new formula in barycentric form.
We establish the meromorphic continuation of certain multiple zeta functions of generalized Hurwitz type. From this meromorphic continuation, we obtain explicit formulas for their (derivative) values at nonpositive integers along a given…
