In this short note, we introduce probabilistic Cauchy functional equations, specifically, functional equations of the following form: $$ f(X_1 + X_2) \stackrel{d}{=} f(X_1) + f(X_2), $$ where $X_1$ and $X_2$ represent two independent…

The generalized $p$-trigonometric and ($p,q$)-trigonometric functions were introduced by P. Lindqvist and S. Takeuchi, respectively. We prove some inequalities and present a few conjectures for the ($p,q$)-functions.

We give a new proof of an approximate functional equation, due to J. R. Wilton, for a trigonometric sum involving the divisor function. This allows us to improve on Wilton's error term and to give an explicit formula for an unspecified…

We study a functional equation whose unknown maps a Euclidean space into the space of probability distributions on [0,1]. We prove existence and uniqueness of its solution under suitable regularity and boundary conditions, we show that it…

Popoviciu's inequality is extended to the framework of h-convexity and also to convexity with respect to a pair of quasi-arithmetic means. Several applications are included.

{The numerical approximation of the solution of the Fokker--Planck equation is a challenging problem that has been extensively investigated starting from the pioneering paper of Chang and Cooper in 1970. We revisit this problem at the light…

We obtain the general solution of the functional equation introduced by Ruijsenaars guaranteeing the commutativity of n operators associated with the quantum Ruijsenaars-Schneider models.

We come back to a non linear integral equation satisfied by the function H, which is distinct from the classical H-equation. Established for the first time by Busbridge (1955), it appeared occasionally in the literature since then. First of…

Mathieu functions of period $\pi$ or $2\pi$, also called elliptic cylinder functions, were introduced in 1868 by \'Emile Mathieu together with so-called modified Mathieu functions, in order to help understand the vibrations of an elastic…

This is a work in two parts devoted to solutions of the so-called {\em four Landau's problems} in Number Theory, listed by Edmund Landau at the 1912 International Congress of Mathematics. In Part I the {\em Goldbach's conjecture} is proved.…

We establish a generalization of Jacobi's elegantissima, which solves the pendulum equation. This amazing formula appears in lectures by the famous cosmologist Georges Lema\^itre, during the academic years 1955-1956 and 1956-1957. Our…

Picard--Vessiot theorem (1910) provides a necessary and sufficient condition for solvability of linear differential equations of order $n$ by quadratures in terms of its Galois group. It is based on the differential Galois theory and is…

The discrete functional $L_p$ Minkowski problem is posed and solved. As a consequence, the general affine P\'{o}lya-Szeg\"{o} principle and the general affine Sobolev inequalities are established.

We present an elementary proof of a general version of Montel's theorem in several variables which is based on the use of tensor product polynomial interpolation. We also prove a Montel-Popoviciu's type theorem for functions…

In his seminal paper ``A census of planar triangulations", published in 1962, the iconic graph theorist (and code-breaker), W.T. Tutte, spent a few pages to prove that a certain bi-variate generating function that enumerates triangulations,…

While effective resolution of Thue equations has been well understood since the work of Baker in the 1960s, similar results for norm-form equations in more than two variables have proven difficult to achieve. In 1983, Vojta was able to…

The main result of the present paper is about the solutions of the functional equation \Eq{*}{ F\Big(\frac{x+y}2\Big)+f_1(x)+f_2(y)=G(g_1(x)+g_2(y)),\qquad x,y\in I, } derived originally, in a natural way, from the invariance problem of…

The idea of the metaplectic theta function was introduced by Tomio Kubota in the 1960s. These theta functions are constructed as residues of Eisenstein series and are only known completely in the case of double covers and, up to the…

The paper is an essentially extended version of the work math.CA/0601371, supplemented with an application. We present new results in the theory of classical $\theta$-functions of Jacobi and $\sigma$-functions of Weierstrass: ordinary…
