An algorithm for numerically computing the exponential of a matrix is presented. We have derived a polynomial expansion of $e^x$ by computing it as an initial value problem using a symbolic programming language. This algorithm is shown to…

In this paper, we can show that \begin{align*} S_{\Lambda}(x)=\sum_{1\leq n\leq x}\Lambda \left(\left[\frac{x}{n}\right]\right)= \sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{\Lambda(n)}{n(n+1)}x +O\left(x^{7/15+1/195+\varepsilon}\right), \end{align*} where…

We study an exponential sum over Laplacian eigenvalues $\lambda_{j} = 1/4+t_{j}^{2}$ with $t_{j} \leqslant T$ for Maass cusp forms on $\Gamma \backslash \mathbb{H}$, where $\Gamma$ is a cofinite Fuchsian group acting on the upper half-plane…

Iteration of the modular l-th power function f(x) = x^l (mod n) provides a common pseudorandom number generator (known as the Blum-Blum-Shub generator when l=2). The period of this pseudorandom number generator is closely related to…

We prove the following superexponential distribution inequality: for any integrable $g$ on $[0,1)^{d}$ with zero average, and any $\lambda>0$ \[ |\{ x \in [0,1)^{d} \; :\; g \geq\lambda \}| \leq e^{-…

The Carmichael lambda function $\lambda(n)$ is defined to be the smallest positive integer $m$ such that $a^m \equiv 1 \pmod{n}$ for all $(a,n)=1.$ $\lambda_k(n)$ is defined to be the $k$th iterate of $\lambda(n).$ Let L(n) be the smallest…

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.…

In 2023, the first author and Vandehey proved that the largest $k$ for which the string of equalities $\lambda(n+1)=\lambda(n+2)=\cdots=\lambda(n+k)$ holds for some $n\leq x$, where $\lambda$ is the Carmichael $\lambda$ function, is bounded…

Given a partition $\lambda$, we write $e_j(\lambda)$ for the $j^{\textrm{th}}$ elementary symmetric polynomial $e_j$ evaluated at the parts of $\lambda$ and $e_jp_A(n)$ for the sum of $e_j(\lambda)$ as $\lambda$ ranges over the set of…
