Let $n\ge 1$ be an integer and $e_n(x)$ denote the truncated exponential Taylor polynomial, i.e. $e_{n}(x)=\sum_{i=0}^n\frac{x^i}{i!}$. A well-known theorem of Schur states that the Galois group of $e_n(x)$ over $\Q$ is the alternating…

Letting $(t_n)$ denote the Thue-Morse sequence with values $0, 1$, we note that the Woods-Robbins product $$ \prod_{n \geq 0} \left(\frac{2n+1}{2n+2}\right)^{(-1)^{t_n}} = 2^{-1/2} $$ involves a rational function in $n$ and the $\pm 1$…

By using Liu's $q$-partial differential equations theory, we prove that if an analytic function in several variables satisfies a system of $q$-partial differential equations, if and only if it can be expanded in terms of homogeneous…

Given ergodic p-invariant measures {\mu_i} on the 1-torus T=R/Z, we give a sharp condition on their entropies, guaranteeing that the entropy of the convolution \muon converges to \log p. We also prove a variant of this result for joinings…

An exponential polynomial of order $q$ is an entire function of the form $$ f(z)=P_1(z)e^{Q_1(z)}+\cdots +P_k(z)e^{Q_k(z)}, $$ where the coefficients $P_j(z),Q_j(z)$ are polynomials in $z$ such that $$ \max\{\deg{Q_j}\}=q. $$ In 1977…

In this article, first we generalize the Thue-Morse sequence $(a(n))_{n=0}^\infty$ (the generalized Thue-Morse sequences) by a cyclic permutation and $k$ -adic expansion of natural numbers, and consider the necessary-sufficient condition…

We consider the asymptotic expansion of the functional series \[S_{\mu,\gamma}(a;\lambda)=\sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{n^\gamma e^{-\lambda n^2/a^2}}{(n^2+a^2)^\mu}\] for real values of the parameters $\gamma$, $\lambda>0$ and $\mu\geq0$ as…

Recently, an analogue over $\mathbb{F}_q[T]$ of Landau's theorem on sums of two squares was considered by Bary-Soroker, Smilansky and Wolf. They counted the number of monic polynomials in $\mathbb{F}_q[T]$ of degree $n$ of the form…

Let $s_q(n)$ denote the sum of the digits in the $q$-ary expansion of an integer $n$. In 2005, Melfi examined the structure of $n$ such that $s_2(n) = s_2(n^2)$. We extend this study to the more general case of generic $q$ and polynomials…
