The refined asymptotic expansion of the confluent hypergeometric function $M(a,b,z)$ on the Stokes line $\arg\,z=\pi$ given in {\it Appl. Math. Sci.} {\bf 7} (2013) 6601--6609 is employed to derive the correct exponentially small…

We examine the asymptotic expansion of the Touchard polynomials $T_n(z)$ (also known as the exponential polynomials) for large $n$ and complex values of the variable $z$. In our treatment $|z|$ may be finite or allowed to be large like…

This paper is devoted to the family $\{G_n\}$ of hypergeometric series of any finite number of variables, the coefficients being the square of the multinomial coefficients $(\ell_1+...+\ell_n)!/(\ell_1!...\ell_n!)$, where $n\in\ZZ_{\ge 1}$.…

Let $F_1=1,F_2=1,\ldots$ be the Fibonacci sequence. Motivated by the identity $\displaystyle\sum_{k=0}^{\infty}\frac{1}{F_{2^k}}=\frac{7-\sqrt{5}}{2}$, Erd\"os and Graham asked whether $\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^{\infty}\frac{1}{F_{n_k}}$ is…

Let R_n be the ring of coinvariants for the diagonal action of the symmetric group S_n. It is known that the character of R_n as a doubly-graded S_n module can be expressed using the Frobenius characteristic map as \nabla e_n, where e_n is…

We prove a functional extension of an exponential inequality originally proposed by Bin Zhao and proved by Xiaosheng Mou. The main result asserts that if $\alpha_1\leq \cdots\leq \alpha_n$ and $\sum_{k=1}^n \alpha_k=0$, then \[ \sum_{k=1}^n…

We determine closed and compact expressions for the epsilon-expansion of certain Gaussian hypergeometric functions expanded around half-integer values by explicitly solving for their recurrence relations. This epsilon-expansion is…

The Dirichlet lambda function $\lambda(s)$ is defined for $\mathrm{Re}(s) > 1$ by \[ \lambda(s) = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} \frac{1}{(2n+1)^s}. \] This function was initially studied by Euler on the real line, where he denoted it by $N(s)$. In…

We establish closed-form expressions for the infinite series sum from n=2 to infinity of arctanh(n^-k) for all integers k >= 2 by connecting these sums to infinite product formulas involving the gamma function. Our approach uses logarithmic…

I propose and investigate the use of continuous functional equations for the study of meta-Fibonacci integer sequences. This exploratory study includes three sequences with quite different behavior: Conway's famous sequence $A(n)=…

Here we solve Pad\'e and Prony interpolation problems for the generalized exponential sums with equal weights: $$H_n(z; h)=\frac{\mu}{n}\sum_{k=1}^n h(\lambda_k z),\quad \text{where}\quad \mu,\lambda_k\in \mathbb{C},$$ and $h$ is a fixed…

Associated to a newform $f(z)$ is a Dirichlet series $L_f(s)$ with functional equation and Euler product. Hecke showed that if the Dirichlet series $F(s)$ has a functional equation of a particular form, then $F(s)=L_f(s)$ for some…
