In this note we investigate the existence of zeros of linear twists of $L$-functions outside of the critical strip. In particular, we show that the Lerch zeta function $L(\lambda,\alpha,s)$ has infinitely many zeros for $1<\sigma<1+\eta$,…
In this paper, we reconsider the large-$a$ asymptotic expansion of the Hurwitz zeta function $\zeta(s,a)$. New representations for the remainder term of the asymptotic expansion are found and used to obtain sharp and realistic error bounds.…
We consider the asymptotic expansion of the functional series \[S_{\mu,\gamma}(a;\lambda)=\sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{n^\gamma e^{-\lambda n^2/a^2}}{(n^2+a^2)^\mu}\] for real values of the parameters $\gamma$, $\lambda>0$ and $\mu\geq0$ as…

Taking $t$ at random, uniformly from $[0,T]$, we consider the $k$th moment, with respect to $t$, of the random variable corresponding to the $2\beta$th moment of $\zeta(1/2+ix)$ over the interval $x\in(t, t+1]$, where $\zeta(s)$ is the…
In this study, we consider the asymptotic behaviour of the first discrete Painlev\{e} equation in the limit as the independent variable becomes large. Using an asymptotic series expansion, we identify two types of solutions which are…
Exact and asymptotic formulae are displayed for the coefficients $\lambda_n$ used in Li's criterion for the Riemann Hypothesis. In particular, we argue that if (and only if) the Hypothesis is true, $\lambda_n \sim n(A \log n +B)$ for $n \to…
We study the distribution of partition parts in arithmetic progressions and find asymptotic results that capture all exponentially growing terms. This is accomplished by studying the behavior of non-modular Eisenstein series that appear in…
We prove that the Stokes semigroup is a bounded analytic semigroup on $L^{\infty}_{\sigma}$ of angle $\pi/2$ for two-dimensional exterior domains. This result is an end point case of the $L^{p}$-boundedness of the semigroup for $p\in…
We study the distribution of large (and small) values of several families of $L$-functions on a line $\text{Re(s)}=\sigma$ where $1/2<\sigma<1$. We consider the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$ in the $t$-aspect, Dirichlet $L$-functions in…
Stokes phenomenon refers to the fact that the asymptotic expansion of complex functions can differ in different regions of the complex plane, and that beyond the so-called Stokes lines has an unphysical divergence. An important special case…
Singularly-perturbed ordinary differential equations often exhibit Stokes' phenomenon, which describes the appearance and disappearance of oscillating exponentially small terms across curves in the complex plane known as Stokes curves.…
In the study of low-speed or low-Froude flows of a potential gravity-driven fluid past a wave-generating object, the traditional asymptotic expansion in powers of the Froude number predicts a waveless free-surface at every order. This is…
The Stieltjes constants $\gamma_n$ appear in the coefficients in the Laurent expansion of the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$ about the simple pole $s=1$. We present an asymptotic expansion for $\gamma_n$ as $n\rightarrow \infty$ based on…
We consider the asymptotic expansion of the single-parameter Mittag-Leffler function $E_a(-x)$ for $x\to+\infty$ as the parameter $a\to1$. The dominant expansion when $0<a<1$ consists of an algebraic expansion of $O(x^{-1})$ (which vanishes…
