In this paper we discuss three symbolic approaches for the generation of a finite difference scheme of a partial differential equation (PDE). We prove, that for a linear PDE with constant coefficients these three approaches are equivalent…
We consider a stochastic differential equations which is driven by a Levy process. It turns out that the solution process is a Feller process if the coefficient of the SDE is bounded. Using a probabilistic formula we calculate the symbol,…
In fractional calculus there are two approaches to obtain fractional derivatives. The first approach is by iterating the integral and then defining a fractional order by using Cauchy formula to obtain Riemann fractional integrals and…
The Dyson series is an infinite sum of multi-dimensional time-ordered integrals, which serves as a formal representation of the quantum time-evolution operator in the interaction-picture. Using the mathematical tool of divided differences,…
This paper deals with efficient numerical representation and manipulation of differential and integral operators as symbols in phase-space, i.e., functions of space $x$ and frequency $\xi$. The symbol smoothness conditions obeyed by many…
By means of the notion of umbrae indexed by multisets, a general method to express estimators and their products in terms of power sums is derived. A connection between the notion of multiset and integer partition leads immediately to a way…
Asymptotic formulae for Titchmarsh-type divisor sums are obtained with strong error terms that are uniform in the shift parameter. This applies to more general arithmetic functions such as sums of two squares, improving the error term in…
Differential equations are derived which show how generalized Euler vector representations of the Euler rotation axis and angle for a rigid body evolve in time; the Euler vector is also known as a rotation vector or axis-angle vector. The…
This short essay celebrates the mathematical meaning of Pi Day through Euler's formula \[ e^{ix}=\cos x+i\sin x, \] from which Euler's identity \[ e^{i\pi}+1=0 \] follows immediately. We briefly note the historical background of the…
Differential operators usually result in derivatives expressed as a ratio of differentials. For all but the simplest derivatives, these ratios are typically not algebraically manipulable, but must be held together as a unit in order to…
In this work we investigate the statistical mechanics of a family of two dimensional (2D) fluid flows, described by the generalized Euler equations, or $\alpha$-models. These models describe both nonlocal and local dynamics, with one…
The paper generalizes Lazarus Fuchs' theorem on the solutions of complex ordinary linear differential equations with regular singularities to the case of ground fields of arbitrary characteristic, giving a precise description of the shape…
This is an attempt to generalize some basic facts of homological algebra to the case of "complexes" in which the differential satisfies the condition $d^N=0$ instead of the usual $d^2=0$. Instead of familiar sign factors, the constructions…
In this paper we obtain a set of polynomials which are orthogonal with respect to the classical discrete weight function of the Charlier polynomials at which an extra point mass at x=0 is added. We construct a difference operator of…
Euler starts with a hypergeometric series F(a, b, c, x), and differentiates it to get a functional relation. This relation is today known as Euler's identity. Then he integrates to get another and ends up with something like Legendre…
At a crossroads of calculus and combinatorics, the generating function of secant and tangent numbers (Euler numbers) provides enumeration of alternating permutations. In this article, we present a new refinement of Euler numbers to answer…
This short note for non-experts means to demystify the tasks of evaluating the Riemann Zeta Function at non-positive integers and at even natural numbers, both initially performed by Leonhard Euler. Treading in the footsteps of G. H. Hardy…
In this paper, we derive eight basic identities of symmetry in three variables related to generalized Euler polynomials and alternating generalized power sums. All of these are new, since there have been results only about identities of…
A very simple closed-form formula for Sheppard's corrections is recovered by means of the classical umbral calculus. By means of this symbolic method, a more general closed-form formula for discrete parent distributions is provided and the…
Ordinary differential equations have an arithmetic analogue in which functions are replaced by numbers and the derivation operator is replaced by a Fermat quotient operator. In this survey we explain the main motivations, constructions,…
