We consider the integral $\int_0^\infty\left(\frac{\sin x}{x}\right)^n\;dx$ as a function of the positive integer $n$. We show that there exists an asymptotic series in $\frac{1}{n}$ and compute the first terms of this series together with…

In a recent paper \cite{Temme:2021:AKH} new asymptotic expansions are given for the Kummer functions $M(a,b,z)$ and $U(a,b+1,z)$ for large positive values of $a$ and $b$, with $z$ fixed and special attention for the case $a\sim b$. In this…

We study the arithmetic function sopfr$(n)$ (OEIS A001414) which gives the sum of prime factors (with repetition) of a number $n$. In particular we obtain the asymptotic formula $$ \sum_{n \leq x} \rm{sopfr}(n) \sim \frac{\pi^2}{12}…

Let $ k,l \geq 2$ be natural numbers, and let $d_k,d_l$ denote the $k$-fold and $l$-fold divisor functions, respectively. We analyse the asymptotic behavior of the sum $\sum_{x<n\leq x+H_1}d_k(n)d_l(n+h)$. More precisely, let…

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 show that the proportion of polynomials of degree $n$ over the finite field with $q$ elements, which have a divisor of every degree below $n$, is given by $c_q n^{-1} + O(n^{-2})$. More generally, we give an asymptotic formula for the…

We study the variance of sums of the $k$-fold divisor function $d_k(n)$ over sparse arithmetic progressions, with averaging over both residue classes and moduli. In a restricted range, we confirm an averaged version of a recent conjecture…

We find the asymptotics of the series $\sum_{n=1}^\infty (-1)^n n^{-1} \exp(-t/n)$ as $t\to+\infty$. The answer is an oscillating function of $t$ dominated by $\exp(-(2\pi t)^{1/2})$. The intermediate step is to find the asymptotics of the…

In this article we prove that if the $q-$fractional operator $(~_{q}\nabla_{qa}^\alpha y)(t)$ of order $0<\alpha\leq 1$ , $0<q<1$ and starting at some $qa \in T_q=\{q^k: k \in \mathbb{Z}\}\cup \{0\},~~a>0$ is positive such that $y(a) \geq…

Let $$ \zeta_E(s,q)=\sum_{n=0}^\infty\frac{(-1)^n}{(n+q)^{s}} $$ be the alternating Hurwitz (or Hurwitz-type Euler) zeta function. In this paper, we obtain the following asymptotic expansion of $\zeta_{E}(s,q)$ $$ \zeta_E(s,q)\sim\frac12…

For $q \in (0, 1)$, the deformed exponential function $f(x) = \sum_{n \geq 1} x^n q^{n(n-1)/2}/n!$ is known to have infinitely many simple and negative zeros $\{x_k(q)\}_{k \geq 1}$. In this paper, we analyze the series expansions of…

For the structure functions of the quark propagator, the asymptotic behavior is obtained for general, linear, covariant gauges, and in all directions of the complex $k^2$-plane. Asymptotic freedom is assumed. Corresponding previous results…

We examine the sum of a decaying exponential (depending non-linearly on the summation index) and a Bessel function in the form \[\sum_{n=1}^\infty e^{-an^p}\frac{J_\nu(an^px)}{(an^px/2)^\nu}\qquad (x>0),\] in the limit $a\to0$, where…

The paper compares the asymptotic of the expressions $\frac {1} {x} \sum\limits_{n \leq x} {f(n)}$ and $\sum\limits_{n \leq x} {\frac {f(n)} {n}}$, $\frac {1} {x} \sum\limits_{p \leq x} {f(p)}$ and $\sum\limits_{p \leq x} {\frac {f(p)}…
