For $0\neq x>-1$ let $$\Delta(x)={{\ln \Gamma(x+1)} \over x}.$$ Recently Adell and Alzer proved the complete monotonicity of $\Delta'$ on $(-1,\infty)$ by giving an integral representation of $(-1)^n \Delta^{(n+1)}(x)$ in terms of the…

The divergence of the harmonic series is proved by direct comparison with a series whose nth partial sum telescopes to the natural logarithm of n. The key idea is to apply the classical inequality x>=log(1+x) (valid for x>-1) with x=1/k and…

We present a general framework for the rigorous numerical analysis of time-fractional nonlinear parabolic partial differential equations, with a fractional derivative of order $\alpha\in(0,1)$ in time. The framework relies on three…

Let $\Delta(x)$ denote the error term in the Dirichlet divisor problem. Our main results are the asymptotic formulas $$ \int_1^X \Delta^3(x){\rm d}x = BX^{7/4} + O_\epsilon(X^{\beta+\epsilon}) \qquad(B > 0) $$ and $$ \int_1^X…

This work deals with the a posteriori error estimates for the Darcy-Forchheimer problem. We introduce the corresponding variational formulation and discretize it by using the finite-element method. A posteriori error estimate with two types…

We establish $L^p$ error estimates for monotone numerical schemes approximating Hamilton-Jacobi equations on the $d$-dimensional torus. Using the adjoint method, we first prove a $L^1$ error bound of order one for finite-difference and…

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…

We present several new results involving $\Delta(x+U)-\Delta(x)$, where $U = o(x)$ and $$ \Delta(x):=\sum_{n\le x}d(n)-x\log x-(2\gamma-1)x $$ is the error term in the classical Dirichlet divisor problem.

We derive optimal order a posteriori error estimates in the $L^\infty(L^2)$ and $L^1(L^2)$-norms for the fully discrete approximations of time fractional parabolic differential equations. For the discretization in time, we use the $L1$…

We define a parametric variant of generalized Euler sums and construct contour integration to give some explicit evaluations of these parametric Euler sums. In particular, we establish several explicit formulas of (Hurwitz) zeta functions,…

Let $d(n)$ be the number of divisors of $n$, let $$ \Delta(x) := \sum_{n\le x}d(n) - x(\log x + 2\gamma -1) $$ denote the error term in the classical Dirichlet divisor problem, and let $\zeta(s)$ denote the Riemann zeta-function. Several…

We obtain an error estimate between viscosity solutions and \delta-viscosity solutions of nonhomogeneous fully nonlinear uniformly elliptic equations. The main assumption, besides uniform ellipticity, is that the nonlinearity is…

We deduce asymptotic formulas for the alternating sums $\sum_{n\le x} (-1)^{n-1} f(n)$ and $\sum_{n\le x} (-1)^{n-1} \frac1{f(n)}$, where $f$ is one of the following classical multiplicative arithmetic functions: Euler's totient function,…

Dirichlet's $L$-functions are natural extensions of the Riemann zeta function. In this paper we first give a brief survey of Ap\'ery-like series for some special values of the zeta function and certain $L$-functions. Then, we establish two…
