We consider finite iterated generalized harmonic sums weighted by the binomial $\binom{2k}{k}$ in numerators and denominators. A large class of these functions emerges in the calculation of massive Feynman diagrams with local operator…
Given $\beta>0$ and $\delta>0$, the function $t^{-\beta}$ may be approximated for $t$ in a compact interval $[\delta,T]$ by a sum of terms of the form $we^{-at}$, with parameters $w>0$ and $a>0$. One such an approximation, studied by…
Matrix Lie groups provide a language for describing motion in such fields as robotics, computer vision, and graphics. When using these tools, we are often faced with turning infinite-series expressions into more compact finite series (e.g.,…
We develop a general finite-alphabet framework for Euler-type sums based on the notion of a monoidal alphabet. An alphabet of summand letters is called monoidal when it is closed under pointwise multiplication, thereby inducing the usual…
In this paper, we formulate a new \emph{multiple-correction method}. The goal is to accelerate the rate of convergence. In particular, we construct some sequences to approximate the Euler-Mascheroni and Landau constants, which are faster…
The generalized hyperharmonic numbers $h_n^{(m)}(k)$ are defined by means of the multiple harmonic numbers. We show that the hyperharmonic numbers $h_n^{(m)}(k)$ satisfy certain recurrence relation which allow us to write them in terms of…
The construction of discrete velocity models or numerical methods for the Boltzmann equation, may lead to the necessity of computing the collision operator as a sum over lattice points. The collision operator involves an integral over a…
As is well known, the idea of a fractional sum and difference on uniform lattice is more current, and gets a lot of development in this field. But the definitions of fractional sum and fractional difference of $f(z)$ on non-uniform lattices…
In Bayesian inference, the approximation of integrals of the form $\psi = \mathbb{E}_{F}{l(X)} = \int_{\chi} l(\mathbf{x}) d F(\mathbf{x})$ is a fundamental challenge. Such integrals are crucial for evidence estimation, which is important…
This paper presents a quadratic formula-based nonlinear representation for a given single-variable function f(x), $-1 \leq x \leq 1$. First, we construct the explicit polynomial coefficient functions a(x), b(x), and c(x) using a…
Suppose that some harmonic analysis arguments have been invoked to show that the indicator function of a set of residue classes modulo some integer has a large Fourier coefficient. To get information about the structure of the set of…

For W a finite Coxeter group, a formula is found for the size of W equivalence classes of subsets of a base. The proof is a case-by-case analysis using results and tables of Carter and Orlik/Solomon. As a corollary we obtain an alternating…
We develop a new type of orthogonal polynomial, the modified discrete Laguerre (MDL) polynomials, designed to accelerate the computation of bosonic Matsubara sums in statistical physics. The MDL polynomials lead to a rapidly convergent…
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…
In a former paper it has been shown that the elliptic Gau{\ss} sums, whose use has been proposed in the context of counting points on elliptic curves and primality tests, can be computed by using modular functions. In this work we give…
We examine a family of three-dimensional exponential sums with monomials and provide estimates which are in some instances sharper than those stemming from approaches entailing the use of existing bounds pertaining to analogous sums.
We show that integrals of the form \[ \dint_{0}^{1} x^{m}{\rm Li}_{p}(x){\rm Li}_{q}(x)dx, (m\geq -2, p,q\geq 1) \] and \[ \dint_{0}^{1} \frac{\ds \log^{r}(x){\rm Li}_{p}(x){\rm Li}_{q}(x)}{\ds x}dx, (p,q,r\geq 1) \] satisfy certain…
In this paper, we investigate the parity of three class of Hurwitz-type cyclotomic Euler sums using the methods of contour integration and residue computation, and derive explicit parity formulas for linear, quadratic, and some higher-order…
The problem to compute the vertices of a polytope given by affine inequalities is called vertex enumeration. The inverse problem, which is equivalent by polarity, is called the convex hull problem. We introduce `approximate vertex…
