Consider a sum of convex functions, where the only information known about each individual summand is the location of a minimizer. In this work, we give an exact characterization of the set of possible minimizers of the sum. Our results…
We investigate exponential sums over singular binary quartic forms, proving an explicit formula for the finite field Fourier transform of this set. Our formula shares much in common with analogous formulas proved previously for other vector…
This paper proposes a totally constructive approach for the proof of Hilbert's theorem on ternary quartic forms. The main contribution is the ladder technique, with which the Hilbert's theorem is proved vividly.
In this paper, we derive the quadratic formula as a consequence of constructively proving the existence of standard and factored forms for general form real quadratic functions. Emphasis is put on connections to graphing of corresponding…
Carlitz proved a few generalizations of Mehler's formula. Later, Srivastava et al. gave a new proof for some extensions of Carlitz's formula. Here, a direct proof of the further generalization is given.
It is well--known that certain properties of continuous functions on the circle $\mathbb T$, related to the Fourier expansion, can be improved by a change of variable, i.e., by a homeomorphism of the circle onto itself. One of the results…
The operational calculus associated with Hermite numbers has been shown to be an effective tool for simplifying the study of special functions. Within this context, Hermite polynomials have been viewed as Newton binomials, with the…
We prove an analogue of Gutzmer's formula for Hermite expansions. As a consequence we obtain a new proof of a characterisation of the image of $ L^2(\R^n) $ under the Hermite semigroup. We also obtain some new orthogonality relations for…
We provide a systematic study of sesquilinear hermitian forms and a new proof of the calculus of some exponential sums defined with quadratic hermitian forms. The computation of the number of solutions of equations such as Tr(f(x)+v.x)=0 or…
We extend the Reed Dawson identity for Knuth's old sum with a complex parameter, and we offer two separate hypergeometric series-based proofs of this generalization, and we apply this generalization to introduce binomial-harmonic sum…
The theories of hypergeometric functions and modular forms are highly intertwined. For example, particular values of truncated hypergeometric functions and hypergeometric character sums are often congruent or equal to Fourier coefficients…
We provide several new $q$-congruences for truncated basic hypergeometric series, mostly of arbitrary order. Our results include congruences modulo the square or the cube of a cyclotomic polynomial, and in some instances, parametric…
Expressions are given for the exponential of a hermitian matrix, A. Replacing A by iA these are explicit formulas for the Fourier transform of exp(iA). They extend to any size matrix the previous results for the 2 X 2, 3 X 3, and 4 X 4…
We present an elementary method for proving enumeration formulas which are polynomials in certain parameters if others are fixed and factorize into distinct linear factors over Z. Roughly speaking the idea is to prove such formulas by…
We give a large sieve type inequality for functions supported on primes. As application we prove a conjecture by Elliott, and give bounds for short character sums over primes. The proves uses a combination of the large sieve and the Selberg…
In this paper, sufficient conditions for the existence of trigonometric Hermite-Jacobi appro\-ximations of a system of functions that are sums of convergent Fourier series are found. Based on these results, sufficient conditions are…
In this note, we will give a short proof of an identity for cubic partitions.
This study presents the derivation of a recursive formula for integrals of products of $N$ Hermite polynomials, establishing a numerically stable scheme for their accurate evaluation in computer codes. The derivation is notably simple and…
In his notebooks, Ramanujan presented without proof many remarkable formulae for the solutions to generalized modular equations. Much later, proofs of the formulae were provided by making use of highly nontrivial identities for theta series…
We generalize Menon's identity by considering sums representing arithmetical functions of several variables. As an application, we give a formula for the number of cyclic subgroups of the direct product of several cyclic groups of arbitrary…
