We derive Mehler--Heine type asymptotic formulas for Charlier and Meixner polynomials, and also for their associated families. These formulas provide good approximations for the polynomials in the neighborhood of $x=0,$ and determine the…
In this paper we study asymptotic distributions associated to piecewise quasi-polynomials. The main result obtained here is used in another paper of the authors "The equivariant index of twisted Dirac operators and semi-classical limits".
Many limits are known for hypergeometric orthogonal polynomials that occur in the Askey scheme. We show how asymptotic representations can be derived by using the generating functions of the polynomials. For example, we discuss the…
We establish a new asymptotic formula for the number of polynomials of degree $n$ with $k$ prime factors over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. The error term tends to $0$ uniformly in $n$ and in $q$, and $k$ can grow beyond $\log n$.…
Using the circle method, we obtain asymptotic formulae for the number of integer solutions to certain quadratic polynomials that are uniform in the coefficients of the polynomial.
In this monograph, we prove an asymptotic approximation for integrals of probability densities over sets in finite dimensional euclidean space, which are far away from the origin (asymptotic sets). We use this approximation to investigate…
We derive the local and central limit theorems for the Stirling numbers of the second kind by elementary means, obtaining as corollaries effective asymptotic estimates for the Bell numbers and for the moments of the distribution. We also…
We introduce and study a notion of Asymptotic Preserving schemes, related to convergence in distribution, for a class of slow-fast Stochastic Differential Equations. In some examples, crude schemes fail to capture the correct limiting…
In this paper, we combine the method of multiple scales and the method of matched asymptotic expansions to construct uniformly-valid asymptotic solutions to autonomous and non-autonomous difference equations in the neighbourhood of a…
This paper reports on recent work to compute the asymptotic solution of a n-th order ordinary differential equation. Symbolic methods are used to compute the asymptotics over a large region. Application is made to the computation of 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…
A previous paper by the authors found explicit contour integral formulas for certain joint moments of the multi-species q-TAZRP (totally asymmetric zero range process), using algebraic methods. These contour integral formulas have a…
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.…
For the Chebyshev-Stirling numbers, a special case of the Jacobi-Stirling numbers, asymptotic formulae are derived in terms of a local central limit theorem. The underlying probabilistic approach also applies to the classical Stirling…
In statistical physics and information theory, although the exponent of the partition function is often of our primary interest, there are cases where one needs more detailed information. In this paper, we present a general framework to…
In this paper, we provide a complete Plancherel-Rotach asymptotic analysis of polynomials that satisfy a second-order difference equation with linear coefficients. According to the signs of the parameters, we classify the difference…
In this paper, the asymptotic formulas for Eulerian numbers, refined Eulerian numbers and the coefficients of descent polynomials are obtained directly from the spline interpretations of these numbers. Having related these numbers directly…
Asymptotic expansions are obtained for contour integrals of the form \[ \int_a^b \exp \left( - zp(t) + z^{\nu /\mu } r(t) \right)q(t)dt, \] in which $z$ is a large real or complex parameter, $p(t)$, $q(t)$ and $r(t)$ are analytic functions…
We use a Mellin-Barnes integral representation for the Lerch transcendent $\Phi(z,s,a)$ to obtain large $z$ asymptotic approximations. The simplest divergent asymptotic approximation terminates in the case that $s$ is an integer. For…
We analyze the Bell polynomials $B_{n}(x)$ asymptotically as $n\to\infty$. We obtain asymptotic approximations from the differential-difference equation which they satisfy, using a discrete version of the ray method. We give some examples…
