Motivated by extending the functional stochastic calculus, to important functionals to which it does not apply, a notion of functional derivative along a curve is introduced. This new setting is developed by incorporating path-dependent…
This manuscript explores many convolution (restricted summation) type sequences via certain types of matrix based factorizations that can be used to express their generating functions. The last primary (non-appendix) section of the thesis…
Expanding upon recent work, a new class of $A$-functions is introduced that can be viewed as an appropriate generalization of the class of regular $A$-functions, the class of structured $A$-functions, and the class of perfect $A$-functions.…
The Additive Transform of an arithmetic function represents a novel approach to examining the interplay between multiplicative arithmetic function and additive functions. This transform concept introduces a method to systematically generate…
The purpose of this paper is to study the (different) notions of homo-derivations. These are additive mappings $f$ of a ring $R$ that also fulfill the identity \[ f(xy)=f(x)y+xf(y)+f(x)f(y) \qquad \left(x, y\in R\right), \] or (in case of…
The main purpose of this work is to provide the general solutions of a class of linear functional equations. Let $n\geq 2$ be an arbitrarily fixed integer, let further $X$ and $Y$ be linear spaces over the field $\mathbb{K}$ and let…
Given a positive definite binary quadratic form f, let r(n) = |{(x,y): f(x,y)=n}| denote its representation function. In this paper we study linear correlations of these functions. For example, if r_1, ..., r_k are representation functions,…
The main goal of the paper is to prove that the sequence of functions $f(x), Df(x), \dots, D^{2n+1}f(x)$, where $f(x)$ is $x^n\sin x$ or $x^n\cos x$ are linearly independent. Or more generally: that the sequence of functions $D^kf(x),…
This article is centered around generalizing a previous implicit function theorem of the author to be applicable for maps f:E sqcap F to F which can be lifted to Keller C^k_pi maps f_i:E sqcap F_i to F_i with F_i Banach and F=projlim F_i .…
From physical perspective, derivatives can be viewed as mathematical idealizations of the linear growth. The linear growth condition has special properties, which make it preferred. The manuscript investigates the general properties of the…
The paper gives some criteria for partial sums of rational number sequences to be not rational functions and to be not algebraic functions. As an application, we study partial sums of some famous rational number sequences in mathematical…
A finite number of rational functions are compatible if they satisfy the compatibility conditions of a first-order linear functional system involving differential, shift and q-shift operators. We present a theorem that describes the…
The aim of this paper is to establish various factorization results and then to derive estimates for linear functionals through the use of a generalized Taylor theorem. Additionally, several error bounds are established including…
A piecewise linear function can be described in different forms: as an arbitrarily nested expression of $\min$- and $\max$-functions, as a difference of two convex piecewise linear functions, or as a linear combination of maxima of…
In 2012 Chen and Singer introduced the notion of discrete residues for rational functions as a complete obstruction to rational summability. More explicitly, for a given rational function f(x), there exists a rational function g(x) such…
The present research deals with generalizations of the Salem function with arguments defined in terms of certain alternating expansions of real numbers. The special attention is given to modelling such functions by systems of functional…
For functions $f(z)= z+ a_2 z^2 + a_3 z^3 + \cdots$ in various subclasses of normalized analytic functions, we consider the problem of estimating the generalized Zalcman coefficient functional $\phi(f,n,m;\lambda):=|\lambda a_n a_m…
We study rational functions over finite fields under PGL-equivalence. We say that $f, g \in \Bbb F_q(X)$ are \emph{equivalent} if there exist $\psi, \phi \in \Bbb F_q(X)$ of degree one such that $g = \psi \circ f \circ \phi$. Most…
Perturbation or error bounds of functions have been of great interest for a long time. If the functions are differentiable, then the mean value theorem and Taylor's theorem come handy for this purpose. While the former is useful in…
We first introduce the arithmetic subderivative of a positive integer with respect to a non-empty set of primes. This notion generalizes the concepts of the arithmetic derivative and arithmetic partial derivative. More generally, we then…
