We give an overview of basic methods that can be used for obtaining asymptotic expansions of integrals: Watson's lemma, Laplace's method, the saddle point method, and the method of stationary phase. Certain developments in the field of…

We describe a method to evaluate integrals that arise in the asymptotic analysis when two saddle points may be close together. These integrals, which appear in problems from optics, acoustics or quantum mechanics as well as in a wide class…

In this paper we derive non-classical Tauberian asymptotic at infinity for the tail, the density and the derivatives thereof of a large class of exponential functionals of subordinators. More precisely, we consider the case when the L\'evy…

Write $\zeta_m(n)$, $1\le m\le n-1$, for the negative zeros of the $n$-th Bell polynomial, ordered in decreasing size. In this paper, we prove the following asymptotic: for a positive integer $m$ we have $$ \lim_{n\to…

This survey text deals with irrationality, and linear independence over the rationals, of values at positive odd integers of Riemann zeta function. The first section gives all known proofs (and connections between them) of Ap\'ery's Theorem…

We describe a Riemann-Hilbert problem for a family of $q$-orthogonal polynomials, $\{ P_n(x) \}_{n=0}^\infty$, and use it to deduce their asymptotic behaviours in the limit as the degree, $n$, approaches infinity. We find that the…

Our goal is to find asymptotic formulas for orthonormal polynomials $P_{n}(z)$ with the recurrence coefficients slowly stabilizing as $n\to\infty$. To that end, we develop spectral theory of Jacobi operators with long-range coefficients and…

One of the many remarkable properties of the Ap\'ery numbers $A (n)$, introduced in Ap\'ery's proof of the irrationality of $\zeta (3)$, is that they satisfy the two-term supercongruences \begin{equation*} A (p^r m) \equiv A (p^{r - 1} m)…

We derive the first exact, rigorous but practical, globally valid remainder terms for asymptotic expansions about saddles and contour endpoints of arbitrary order degeneracy derived from the method of steepest descents. The exact remainder…

We compute the pointwise asymptotics of orthogonal polynomials with respect to a general class of pure point measures supported on finite sets as both the number of nodes of the measure and also the degree of the orthogonal polynomials…

An important component of Ap\'ery's proof that $\zeta (3)$ is irrational involves representing $\zeta (3)$ as the limit of the quotient of two rational solutions to a three-term recurrence. We present various approaches to such Ap\'ery…

Asymptotic expansions are given for large values of $n$ of the generalized Bernoulli polynomials $B_n^\mu(z)$ and Euler polynomials $E_n^\mu(z)$. In a previous paper L\'opez and Temme (1999) these polynomials have been considered for large…
