There exist many explicit evaluations of Dirichlet series. Most of them are constructed via the same approach: by taking products or powers of Dirichlet series with a known Euler product representation. In this paper we derive a result of a…
We give simple proofs of some simple statements concerning the Lambert problem. We first restate and reprove the known existence and uniqueness results for the Keplerian arc. We also prove in some cases that the elapsed time is a convex…
A numerical approach to solve the perturbed Lambert's problem is presented. The proposed technique uses the Theory of Functional Connections, which allows the derivation of a constrained functional that analytically satisfies the boundary…
While preparing the correspondence between Leonhard Euler and Christian Goldbach for publication, Martin Mattmueller asked whether the lemma given in the postscript of Euler's letter dated July 26, 1749, was enough for completing the proof…
Euler discovered recurrence for divisor sum functions as a consequence of the pentagonal numbers theorem. With similar idea and also motivated by Ewell's work in 1977, we prove new recurrences for certain divisor sum functions and…
The study of the Mittag-Leffler function and its various generalizations has become a very popular topic in mathematics and its applications. In the present paper we prove the following estimate for the $q$-Mittag-Leffler function:…
Recently, we have studied a delay differential equation which has a coefficient that is a linear function of time. The equation has shown the oscillatory transient dynamics appear and disappear as the delay is increased between zero to…
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,…
We consider a particular generalized Lambert function, $y(x)$, defined by the implicit equation $y^\beta = 1 - e^{-xy}$, with $x>0$ and $ \beta > 1$. Solutions to this equation can be found in terms of a certain continued exponential.…
In 1956 Marguerite Frank and Paul Wolfe proved that a quadratic function which is bounded below on a polyhedron $P$ attains its infimum on $P$. In this work we search for larger classes of sets $F$ with this Frank-and-Wolfe property. We…
The law of the iterated logarithm for partial sums of weakly dependent processes was intensively studied by Walter Philipp in the late 1960s and 1970s. In this paper, we aim to extend these results to nondegenerate U-statistics of data that…
In a seminal paper of 1915, V. Brun introduced Brun's sieve, which is based on Brun's inequality for the M\"{o}bius function and is a very powerful tool in modern number theory. The importance of the M\"{o}bius function in enumeration…
The C library \texttt{libkww} provides functions to compute the Kohlrausch-Williams-Watts function, i.e.\ the Laplace-Fourier transform of the stretched (or compressed) exponential function $\exp(-t^\beta)$ for exponents $\beta$ between 0.1…
In 1655, John Wallis whilst at the University of Oxford discovered the famous and beautiful formula for pi, now known as Wallis' Product. Since then, several analogous formulae have been discovered generalising the original. One more modern…
Measuring attenuation coefficients is a fundamental problem that can be solved with diverse techniques such as X-ray or optical tomography and lidar. We propose a novel approach based on the observation of a sample from a few different…
Starting in the 1970s with the fundamental work of Imre Simon, \emph{scattered factors} (also known as subsequences or scattered subwords) have remained a consistently and heavily studied object. The majority of work on scattered factors…
In 1997 the author found a criterion for the Riemann hypothesis for the Riemann zeta function, involving the nonnegativity of certain coefficients associated with the Riemann zeta function. In 1999 Bombieri and Lagarias obtained an…
We generalize the Mittag-Leffler function by attaching an exponent to its Taylor coefficients. The main result is an asymptotic formula valid in sectors of the complex plane, which extends work by Le Roy [Bull. des sciences math. 24, 1900]…
For Hurwitz Zeta function,we consider its Taylor series expansion about various points as an analytic function of second variable in appropriate discs.We show that these Taylor are all polynomials in second variable for a non positive…
In this paper new $\Gamma$-functional is constructed upon the basis of the set of almost linear increments of the Hardy-Littlewood integral. This functional generates a $\Gamma$-equivalent of the Fermat-Wiles theorem and also new set of…
