Every classical orthogonal polynomial system $p_n(x)$ satisfies a three-term recurrence relation of the type \[ p_{n+1}(x)=(A_nx+B_n)p_n(x)-C_np_{n-1}(x)~ (n=0,1,2,\ldots, p_{-1}\equiv 0), \] with $C_nA_nA_{n-1}>0$. Moreover, Favard's…
The goal of this paper is to derive a simple recursion that generates a sequence of fractions approximating $\sqrt[n]{k}$ with increasing accuracy. The recursion is defined in terms of a series of first-order non-linear difference equations…
A recent trend in Non-Rigid Structure-from-Motion (NRSfM) is to express local, differential constraints between pairs of images, from which the surface normal at any point can be obtained by solving a system of polynomial equations. The…
We use the theory of q-characters to establish a number of short exact sequences in the category of finite-dimensional representations of the quantum affine groups of types A and B. That allows us to introduce a set of 3-term recurrence…

In this paper we study the cones corresponding to sums of squares of $n$-ary $d$-ic forms with at most $k$ terms. We show that these are strictly nested as $k$ increases, leading to the usual sum of squares cone. We also discuss the duals…

New approach to systems of polynomial recursions is developed based on the Carleman linearization procedure. The article is divided into two main sections: firstly, we focus on the case of uni-variable depth-one polynomial recurrences.…
An explicit perturbative solution to all orders is given for a general class of nonlinear differential equations. This solution is written as a sum indexed by rooted trees and uses the Green function of a linearization of the equations. The…
In this note we provide a full conjugacy and subdifferential calculus for convex convex-composite functions in finite-dimensional space. Our approach, based on infimal convolution and cone-convexity, is straightforward and yields the…
Based on the closed time path formalism, a new Feynman rule for directly calculating the retarded and advanced Green functions is deduced. This Feynman rule is used to calculate the two-point self-energy and three-point vertex correction in…
In this paper, we describe geometrical constructions to obtain triangulations of connected sums of closed orientable triangulated 3-manifolds. Using these constructions, we show that it takes time polynomial in the number of tetrahedra to…
We construct arithmetic terms representing the partial sums of binomial coefficients, and we extend these results to obtain arithmetic terms representing the multisections of binomial coefficient sums. We also introduce an arithmetic term…
Resummation, ie. reorganization of perturbative series, can result in an inconsistent perturbation theory, unless the counterterms are reorganized in an appropriate way. In this paper two methods are presented for resummation of…
Lame equation arises from deriving Laplace equation in ellipsoidal coordinates; in other words, it's called ellipsoidal harmonic equation. Lame functions are applicable to diverse areas such as boundary value problems in ellipsoidal…
An end sum is a non-compact analogue of a connected sum. Suppose we are given two connected, oriented $n$-manifolds $M_1$ and $M_2$. Recall that to form their connected sum one chooses an $n$-ball in each $M_i$, removes its interior, and…

We study infinite words fixed by a morphism and their derived words. A derived word is a coding of return words to a factor. We exhibit two examples of sets of morphisms which are closed under derivation --- any derived word with respect to…
