The explicit semiclassical treatment of the logarithmic perturbation theory for the bound-state problem for the spherical anharmonic oscillator and the screened Coulomb potential is developed. Based upon the $\hbar$-expansions and suitable…
Inspired by a question asked on the list {\tt mathfun}, we revisit {\em Kempner-like series}, i.e., harmonic sums $\sum' 1/n$ where the integers $n$ in the summation have ``restricted'' digits. First we give a short proof that $\lim_{k \to…
We apply the Euler--Maclaurin formula to find the asymptotic expansion of the sums $\sum_{k=1}^n (\log k)^p / k^q$, ~$\sum k^q (\log k)^p$, ~$\sum (\log k)^p /(n-k)^q$, ~$\sum 1/k^q (\log k)^p $ in closed form to arbitrary order ($p,q…
We study three special Dirichlet series, two of them alternating, related to the Riemann zeta function. These series are shown to have extensions to the entire complex plane and we find their values at the negative integers (or residues at…
Integral relations and transformation rules are used to obtain, out of an asymptotic solution, a new group of four pairs of solutions to the double-confluent Heun equation. Each pair presents the same series coefficients but has solutions…
High-harmonic spectroscopy driven by circularly-polarized laser pulses and their counter-rotating second harmonic is a new branch of attosecond science which currently lacks quantitative interpretations. We extend this technique to the…

The study of the convergence of power series expansions of energy eigenvalues for anharmonic oscillators in quantum mechanics differs from general understanding, in the case of quasi-exactly solvable potentials. They provide examples of…
Solutions of nonlinear functional equations are generally not expressed as a finite number of combinations and compositions of elementary and known special functions. One of the approaches to study them is, firstly, to find formal solutions…
We give asymptotics for shifted convolutions of the form $$\sum_{n < X} \frac{\sigma_{2u}(n,\chi)\sigma_{2v}(n+k,\psi)}{n^{u+v}}$$ for nonzero complex numbers $u,v$ and nontrivial Dirichlet characters $\chi,\psi$. We use the technique of…
For every couple (p;q) of strictly positive integers, the `` alternate congruo-harmonic '' series parametrized by (p;q), whose general term is (-1)^k/(pk+q), converges infra-linearly and very slowly. On the basis of a generalized continued…
The products of the two and three bipolar harmonics ${\cal Y}^{\ell_1 \ell_2}_{LM}({\bf r}_{31}, {\bf r}_{32})$ are represented as the finite sums of powers of the three relative coordinates $r_{32}, r_{31}$ and $r_{21}$. The complete…
Algorithms for numerical computation of symmetric elliptic integrals of all three kinds are improved in several ways and extended to complex values of the variables (with some restrictions in the case of the integral of the third kind).…
We prove several supercongruences involving the harmonic number of order two $H_n^{(2)}:=\sum_{k=1}^n1/k^2$. For example, if $p>5$ is prime and $\alpha$ is $p$-integral, then we can completely determine $$…
In this paper, we mainly show that generalized hyperharmonic number sums with reciprocal binomial coefficients can be expressed in terms of classical (alternating) Euler sums, zeta values and generalized (alternating) harmonic numbers.
In this paper, we study the alternating Euler $T$-sums and $\S$-sums, which are infinite series involving (alternating) odd harmonic numbers, and have similar forms and close relations to the Dirichlet beta functions. By using the method of…
We present an easily defined countable family of permutations of the natural numbers for which explicit rearrangements (i.e., the sums induced by the permutations) can be computed. The digamma function proves to be the key tool for the…
Decays of unstable heavy particles usually involve the coherent sum of several amplitudes, like in a multiple slit experiment. Dedicated amplitude analysis techniques have been widely used to resolve these amplitudes for better…
