We consider the uniform asymptotic expansion for the Gauss hypergeometric function \[{}_2F_1(a+\epsilon\lambda,b;c+\lambda;x),\qquad 0<x<1\] as $\lambda\to+\infty$ in the neigbourhood of $\epsilon x=1$ when the parameter $\epsilon>1$ and…

In this paper we prove that the Euler equation describing the motion of an ideal fluid in $\R^d$ is well-posed in a class of functions allowing spatial asymptotic expansions as $|x|\to\infty$ of any a priori given order. These asymptotic…

Asymptotic expansions are derived for the tail distribution of the product of two correlated normal random variables with non-zero means and arbitrary variances, and more generally the sum of independent copies of such random variables.…

In this paper, we reconsider the large-argument asymptotic expansions of the Hankel, Bessel and modified Bessel functions and their derivatives. New integral representations for the remainder terms of these asymptotic expansions are found…

In this paper we establish a Taylor-like expansion in the context of the rough path theory for a family of It ^{o} maps indexed by a small parameter. We treat not only the case that the roughness $p$ satisfies $[p]=2$, but also the case…

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 find asymptotical expansions as $\nu \to 0$ for integrals of the form $\int_{\mathbb{R}^d} F(x) / \big(\omega(x)^2 + \nu^2\big)\, dx$, where sufficiently smooth functions $F$ and $\omega$ satisfy natural assumptions for their behaviour…

In this survey, we review asymptotic results of some orthogonal polynomials which are relate to the Painlev\'e transcendents. They are obtained by applying Deift-Zhou's nonlinear steepest descent method for Riemann-Hilbert problems. In the…

This is a survey article on an old topic in classical analysis. We present some new developments in asymptotics in the last fifty years. We start with the classical method of Darboux and its generalizations, including an uniformity…

In this work we study the asymptotic distribution of eigenvalues in one-dimensional open sets. The method of proof is rather elementary, based on the Dirichlet lattice points problem, which enable us to consider sets with infinite measure.…

A representation for the Riemann zeta function valid for arbitrary complex $s=\sigma+it$ is $\zeta(s)=\sum_{n=0}^\infty A(n,s)$, where \[A(n,s)=\frac{2^{-n-1}}{1-2^{1-s}} \sum_{k=0}^n \left(\!\begin{array}{c}n\\k\end{array}\!\right)…

We provide several asymptotic expansions of the prime counting function $\pi(x)$ and related functions. We define an {\it asymptotic continued fraction expansion} of a complex-valued function of a real or complex variable to be a possibly…

We demonstrate how the asymptotics for large $|z|$ of the generalised Bessel function \[{}_0\Psi_1(z)=\sum_{n=0}^\infty\frac{z^n}{\Gamma(an+b) n!},\] where $a>-1$ and $b$ is any number (real or complex), may be obtained by exploiting the…

In these lectures three different methods of computing the asymptotic expansion of a Hermitian matrix integral is presented. The first one is a combinatorial method using Feynman diagrams. This leads us to the generating function of the…

We establish some asymptotic expansions for infinite weighted convolutions of distributions having light subexponential tails. Examples are presented, some showing that in order to obtain an expansion with two significant terms, one needs…

Taylor expansions of analytic functions are considered with respect to several points, allowing confluence of any of them. Cauchy-type formulas are given for coefficients and remainders in the expansions, and the regions of convergence are…
