We find two series expansions for Legendre's second incomplete elliptic integral $E(\lambda, k)$ in terms of recursively computed elementary functions. Both expansions converge at every point of the unit square in the $(\lambda, k)$ plane.…
We study the 'bad science matrix problem': among all matrices $A\in\mathbb{R}^{n\times n}$ whose rows have unit $\ell_2$-norm, determine the maximum of $\beta(A)=\frac{1}{2^n}\sum_{x\in\{\pm1\}^n}\|Ax\|_\infty$. Steinerberger [1]…
For the fifth Painlev\'e equation it is known that a general solution is represented asymptotically by an elliptic function in cheese-like strips near the point at infinity. We present an explicit asymptotic formula for the error term of…
If $G$ is a graph, $A$ and $B$ its induced subgraphs, and $f\colon A\to B$ an isomorphism, we say that $f$ is a \emph{partial automorphism} of $G$. In 1992, Hrushovski proved that graphs have the \emph{extension property for partial…
We show that in the point process limit of the bulk eigenvalues of $\beta$-ensembles of random matrices, the probability of having no eigenvalue in a fixed interval of size $\lambda$ is given by \[\bigl(\…
In this text we study, for positive random variables, the relation between the behaviour of the Laplace transform near infinity and the distribution near zero. A result of De Bruijn shows that $E(e^{-\lambda X}) \sim \exp(r\lambda^\alpha)$…
In this paper, we investigate extreme values of $\omega(E(\mathbb{F}_p))$, where $E/\mathbb{Q}$ is an elliptic curve with complex multiplication and $\omega$ is the number-of-distinct-prime-divisors function. For fixed $\gamma > 1$, we…
We investigate here the asymptotic behaviour of a large typical meandric system. More precisely, we show the quenched local convergence of a random uniform meandric system $M_n$ on $2n$ points, as $n \rightarrow \infty$, towards the…
We give bounds on the error in the asymptotic approximation of the log-Gamma function $\ln\Gamma(z)$ for complex $z$ in the right half-plane. These improve on earlier bounds by Behnke and Sommer (1962), Spira (1971), and Hare (1997). We…
The population $\mathrm{KL}_{\inf}$ is a fundamental quantity that appears in lower bounds for (asymptotically) optimal regret of pure-exploration stochastic bandit algorithms, and optimal stopping time of sequential tests. Motivated by…
For various compactly supported perturbations of the Laplacian in odd dimensions $n$, we prove a sharp upper bound of the resonance counting function $N(r)$ of the type $N(r) \le A_n r^n(1+o(1))$ with an explicit constant $A_n$. In a few…
We find two convergent series expansions for Legendre's first incomplete elliptic integral $F(\lambda,k)$ in terms of recursively computed elementary functions. Both expansions are valid at every point of the unit square $0<\lambda,k<1$.…
We obtain two sequences of rational numbers which converge to the Euler-Gompertz constant. Denote by <f(x)> the integral of f(x)e^{-x} from 0 to infinity. Recall that the Euler-Gompertz constant \delta is <ln(x+1)>. Main idea. Let P_n(x) be…
The irregularities of a distribution of $N$ points in the unit interval are often measured with various notions of discrepancy. The discrepancy function can be defined with respect to intervals of the form $[0,t)\subset [0,1)$ or arbitrary…
We show an elementary method to have (finite time and asymptotic) computer assisted explicit upper bounds on convergence to equilibrium (decay of correlations) and escape rate for systems satisfying a Lasota Yorke inequality. The bounds are…
We study a class of integral functionals known as nonlocal perimeters, which, intuitively, express a weighted interaction between a set and its complement. The weight is provided by a positive kernel K, which might be singular. In the first…
The subject of the article is linear systems of wave equations on cosmological backgrounds with convergent asymptotics. The condition of convergence corresponds to the requirement that the second fundamental form, when suitably normalised,…
For the first Painlev\'e transcendents Kitaev established an asymptotic representation in terms of the Weierstrass pe-function in cheese-like strips near the point at infinity. We present an explicit error bound of this asymptotic…
We present expressions for the coefficients which arise in asymptotic expansions of multiple integrals of Laplace type (the first term of which is known as Laplace's approximation) in terms of asymptotic series of the functions in the…
