Based on Euclid's algorithm, we find a kind of special sequences which play an interesting role in the study of primes. We call them W Sequences. They not only ties up the distribution of primes in short interval but also enables us to give…

The function $y = g(x) = \mathrm{log}\big(W(e^x)\big)$, where $W()$ denotes the Lambert W function, is the solution to the equation $y + e^y = x$. It appears in various problem situations, for instance the calculation of current-voltage…

We consider a particular generalized Lambert function, $y(x)$, defined by the implicit equation $y^\beta = 1 - e^{-xy}$, with $x>0$ and $ \beta > 1$. Solutions to this equation can be found in terms of a certain continued exponential.…
