In Slater's 1960 standard work on confluent hypergeometric functions, also called Kummer functions, a number of asymptotic expansions of these functions can be found. We summarize expansions derived from a differential equation for large…

We study the one-dimensional nonlocal elliptic equation of Kirchhoff type with logarithmic Kirchhoff function. We establish the precise asymptotic formulas for the solution $u_\lambda(x)$ as $\lambda \to \infty$. Here, $\lambda > 0$ is the…

We evaluate certain multidimensional integrals in terms of the Lerch transcendent function $\Phi$, generalizing Guillera-Sondow's formulas. As an application, we get new representations of classical constants like Euler's constant $\gamma$…

The asymptotic behavior of solutions to the second-order linear differential equation $d^{2}w/dz^{2}=\{u^{2}f(\alpha,z)+g(z)\}w$ is analyzed for a large real parameter $u$ and $\alpha\in[0,\alpha_{0}]$, where $\alpha_{0}>0$ is fixed. The…

In this paper we present several new classes of logarithmically completely monotonic functions. Our functions have in common that they are defined in terms of the $q-$gamma and $q-$digamma functions. As an applications of this results, some…

This paper derives a way to express differentiable complex-valued functions as the sum of powers of $(1-e^{\lambda x})$, where $\lambda\in\mathbb{R}$, with an explicit formula for the remainder. This formulation is then used to associate an…

In this paper we study the asymptotic behavior of the (skew) Macdonald and Jack symmetric polynomials as the number of variables grows to infinity. We characterize their limits in terms of certain variational problems. As an intermediate…

We derive asymptotic expansions of the Kummer functions $M(a,b,z)$ and $U(a,b+1,z)$ for large positive values of $a$ and $b$, with $z$ fixed. For both functions we consider $b/a\le 1$ and $b/a\ge 1$, with special attention for the case…

We analyse the canonical energy of vacuum linearised gravitational fields on light cones on a de Sitter, Minkowski, and Anti de Sitter backgrounds in Bondi gauge. We derive the associated asymptotic symmetries. When $\Lambda>0$ the energy…

We study high-dimensional Laplace-type integrals $I(\lambda):=(\lambda/2\pi)^{d/2}\int_{\mathbb R^d} g(x)e^{-\lambda f(x)}dx$ in the regime where both $d$ and $\lambda$ are large. Existing rigorous Laplace-expansion results in growing…

Let ${\mathcal U}(\lambda)$ denote the family of analytic functions $f(z)$, $f(0)=0=f'(0)-1$, in the unit disk $\ID$, which satisfy the condition $\big |\big (z/f(z)\big )^{2}f'(z)-1\big |<\lambda $ for some $0<\lambda \leq 1$. The…
