The method of self-similar factor approximants is completed by defining the approximants of odd orders, constructed from the power series with the largest term of an odd power. It is shown that the method provides good approximations for…

Through an inversion approach, we suggest a possible estimation for the absolute value of Mertens function $\vert M(x) \vert$ that $ \left\vert M(x) \right\vert \sim \left[\frac{1}{\pi \sqrt{\varepsilon}(x+\varepsilon)}\right]\sqrt{x}$…

Let $L$ be a degree-$2$ $L$-function associated to a Maass cusp form. We explore an algorithm that evaluates $t$ values of $L$ on the critical line in time $O(t^{1+\varepsilon})$. We use this algorithm to rigorously compute an abundance of…

The $p$-ary function $f(x)$ mapping $\mathrm{GF}(p^{4k})$ to $\mathrm{GF}(p)$ and given by $f(x)={\rm Tr}_{4k}\big(ax^d+bx^2\big)$ with $a,b\in\mathrm{GF}(p^{4k})$ and $d=p^{3k}+p^{2k}-p^k+1$ is studied with the respect to its exponential…

Given a matrix-valued function $\mathcal{F}(\lambda)=\sum_{i=1}^d f_i(\lambda) A_i$, with complex matrices $A_i$ and $f_i(\lambda)$ entire functions for $i=1,\ldots,d$, we discuss a method for the numerical approximation of the distance to…

Let $f(n)$ denote a multiplicative function with range $\{-1,0,1\}$, and let $F(x) = \sum_{n\leq x} f(n)$. Then $F(x)/\sqrt{x} = a\sqrt{x} + b + E(x)$, where $a$ and $b$ are constants and $E(x)$ is an error term that either tends to $0$ in…

Denote by $\tau$ k (n), $\omega$(n) and $\mu$ 2 (n) the number of representations of n as product of k natural numbers, the number of distinct prime factors of n and the characteristic function of the square-free integers, respectively. Let…

A finite sum of exponential functions may be expressed by a linear combination of powers of the independent variable and by successive integrals of the sum. This is proved for the general case and the connection between the parameters in…

An integer--valued function is an entire function which maps the nonnegative integers $\mathbb N$ to the integers. An example is $2^z$. A Hurwitz function is an entire function having all derivatives taking integer values at $0$. An example…

In this paper, we investigate properties of the fixed point sequence of the Josephus function $J_3$. First, we establish a connection between this sequence and the Chinese Remainder Theorem. Next, we identify a clear numerical pattern for…

This article explores the extension of well-known F1 score used for assessing the performance of binary classifiers. We propose the new metric using probabilistic interpretation of precision, recall, specificity, and negative predictive…

We discuss the spectrum phenomenon for Lipschitz functions on the infinite-dimensional torus. Suppose that $f$ is a measurable, real-valued, Lipschitz function on the torus $\mathbb{T}^{\infty}$. We prove that there exists a number $a \in…

An important tool to quantify the likeness of two probability measures are f-divergences, which have seen widespread application in statistics and information theory. An example is the total variation, which plays an exceptional role among…

Let \tau(.) be the Ramanujan \tau-function, and let k be a positive integer such that \tau(n) is not 0 for n=1,...,[k/2]. (This is known to be true for k < 10^{23}, and, conjecturally, for all k.) Further, let s be a permutation of the set…

Here, we investigate the solutions to equation \[f(f(-x)+x)=f(-f(x))+f(x),\qquad x\in\mathbb{R}\] that are prescribed on the non-positive half-line. We will refer to this prescribed function as the generator of the corresponding solution.…

We present a method to obtain congruences modulo powers of 2 for sequences given by recurrences of finite depth with polynomial coefficients. We apply this method to Catalan numbers, Fu\ss-Catalan numbers, and to subgroup counting functions…

This paper was motivated by work of Arnold where he explains how to count "snakes", i.e. Morse functions on the real axis with prescribed behavior at infinity. This leads immediately to a count of excellent Morse functions on the circle,…

The symmetric function theorem states that a polynomial that is invariant under permutation of variables, is a polynomial in the elementary symmetric polynomials. We deduce this classical result, in the analytic setting, from the…
