We propose an ensemble algorithm, which provides a new approach for evaluating and summing up a set of function samples. The proposed algorithm is not a quantum algorithm, insofar it does not involve quantum entanglement. The query…
We study intermediate sums, interpolating between integrals and discrete sums, which were introduced by A. Barvinok [Computing the Ehrhart quasi-polynomial of a rational simplex, Math. Comp. 75 (2006), 1449--1466]. For a given semi-rational…
Let $T$ be the triangle with vertices (1,0), (0,1), (1,1). We study certain integrals over $T$, one of which was computed by Euler. We give expressions for them both as a linear combination of multiple zeta values, and as a polynomial in…
While teaching a course on integral equations, I noticed that a straightforward combination of Neumann series and Fourier series for the resolvent (or the solution) of an integral equation has good approximation qualities. This short…
Polynomial functions $f : \mathbb{N}_+ \longrightarrow \mathbb{N}_+$ are studied for which sums of arbitrary length $f (1) + f (2) + f (3) + >... + f (n)$, with $n \in \mathbb{N}_+$, can be expressed by polynomial functions $g :…

We use the ordinary Euler operator to compute the Ehrhart series for an arbitrary lattice polytope. The resulting formula involves the coefficients of the Ehrhart polynomial, combined via Eulerian numbers. We use this to compute $h^*_{d-1}$…
We use an interpolative technique from \cite{abps} to introduce the notion of multiple $N$-separately summing operators. Our approach extends and unifies some recent results; for instance we recover the best known estimates of the…

We obtain series expansion formulas for the Hadamard fractional integral and fractional derivative of a smooth function. When considering finite sums only, an upper bound for the error is given. Numerical simulations show the efficiency of…
We introduce certain lattice sums associated with hyperplane arrangements, which are (multiple) sums running over integers, and can be regarded as generalizations of certain linear combinations of zeta-functions of root systems. We also…
