By application of the theory for second-order linear differential equations with two turning points developed in [Olver F.W.J., Philos. Trans. Roy. Soc. London Ser. A 278 (1975), 137-174], uniform asymptotic approximations are obtained in…
We present a new method for approximating real-valued functions on ${\mathbb R}^+$ by linear combinations of exponential functions with complex coefficients. The approach is based on a multi-point Pad\'e approximation of the Laplace…
Statistical applications often involve the calculation of intractable multidimensional integrals. The Laplace formula is widely used to approximate such integrals. However, in high-dimensional or small sample size problems, the shape of the…
In this paper, we present a new method via the transfer matrix approach to obtain asymptotic formulae of orthogonal polynomials with asymptotically identical coefficients of bounded variation. We make use of the hyperbolicity of the…
We propose a formula for finding the horizontal, oblique or curvilinear asymptote of any rational polynomial function of any positive degree, as a sum of matrix determinants formed directly from the coefficients of the terms in the given…
Recently there has been a renewed interest in asymptotic Euler-MacLaurin formulas, partly due to applications to spectral theory of differential operators. Using elementary means, we recover such formulas for compactly supported smooth…
We show how the asymptotic expansion for the gamma function $\Gamma(x)$, similar to that obtained by Boyd [Proc. Roy. Soc. London A447 (1994) 609--630], can be obtained by using a form of Lagrange's inversion theorem with a remainder. A…
We are interested in the asymptotic behavior of orthogonal polynomials of the generalized Jacobi type as their degree $n$ goes to $\infty$. These are defined on the interval $[-1,1]$ with weight function…
In 1938 E. T. Bell introduced "The Iterated Exponential Integers". He proved that these numbers may be expressed by polynomials with rational coefficients. However, Bell gave no formulas for any of the coefficients except the trivial one,…
This article is devoted to derivation of the Laplace transforms of the derivatives with respect to parameters of certain special functions, namely, the Mittag-Leffler type, Wright and Le Roy type functions. These formulas show…
Assuming the asymptotic character of divergent perturbation series, we address the problem of ambiguity of a function determined by an asymptotic power expansion. We consider functions represented by an integral of the Laplace-Borel type,…

Starting from the divergence pattern of perturbation expansions in Quantum Field Theory and the (assumed) asymptotic character of the series, we address the problem of ambiguity of a function determined by the perturbation expansion. We…
We develop a Laplace's method to compute the asymptotic expansions of sums of sharply peaked sequences. These series arise as discretizations (Riemann sums) of sharply-peaked integrals, whose asymptotic behavior can be computed by the…
In this paper, the asymptotic formulas for Eulerian numbers, refined Eulerian numbers and the coefficients of descent polynomials are obtained directly from the spline interpretations of these numbers. Having related these numbers directly…
Defining a family of recurrences, we generalize Comtet's formula for the generating function of the enumeration of indecomposable permutations. Consequently, we generalize Panaitopol's asymptotic expansion for the prime counting function,…
We consider the fractional Laplacian on a domain and investigate the asymptotic behavior of its eigenvalues. Extending methods from semi-classical analysis we are able to prove a two-term formula for the sum of eigenvalues with the leading…
Asymptotic expansions are derived for solutions of the parabolic cylinder and Weber differential equations. In addition the inhomogeneous versions of the equations are considered, for the case of polynomial forcing terms. The expansions…
We use a probabilistic approach to describe the behavior as $n -> \infty$ of the Laplace transforms of $P^n$, where $P$ a fixed complex polynomial. As a consequence we obtain a new elementary proof of an result of Gillis-Ismail-Offer in the…
Surprisingly, apart from some special cases, simple asymptotic expansions for the associated Legendre functions $P_\nu ^\mu (z)$ and $Q_\nu ^\mu (z)$ for large degree $\nu$ or large order $\mu$ are not available in the literature. The main…
