An asymptotic analysis is used to derive a set of diffusion approximations to the nonclassical transport equation with isotropic scattering. These approximations are shown to reduce to the simplified P$_N$ equations under the assumption of…

For various arithmetic functions $f:\mathbb{N} \to \mathbb{R}$, the behavior of $f(n!)$ and that of $\sum_{n\le N} f(n!)$ can be intriguing. For instance, for some functions $f$, we have ${f(n!)=\sum_{k\le n}f(k)}$, for others, we have…

Let $N_a(x)$ denote the number of primes up to $x$ for which the integer $a$ is a primitive root. We show that $N_a(x)$ satisfies the asymptotic predicted by Artin's conjecture for almost all $1\le a\le \exp((\log \log x)^2)$. This improves…

Consider the Fibonacci numbers defined by setting $F_1=1=F_2$ and $F_n =F_{n-1}+F_{n-2}$ for $n \geq 3$. We let $n_F! = F_1 \cdots F_n$ and $\binom{n}{k}_F = \frac{n_F!}{k_F!(n-k)_F!}$. Let $(x)_{\downarrow_0} = (x)_{\uparrow_0} = 1$ and…

Let $k\ge 1$ be an integer. We prove that a suitable asymptotic formula for the average number of representations of integers $n=p_{1}^{k}+p_{2}^{2}+p_{3}^{2}$, where $p_1,p_2,p_3$ are prime numbers, holds in intervals shorter than the ones…

An involution is a bijection that is its own inverse. Given a permutation $\sigma$ of $[n],$ let $\mathsf{invol}(\sigma)$ denote the number of ways $\sigma$ can be expressed as a composition of two involutions of $[n].$ We prove that the…

We study the asymptotic representation for the zeros of the deformed exponential function $\sum\nolimits_{n = 0}^\infty {\frac1{n!}{q^{n(n - 1)/2}{x^n}}} $, $q\in (0,1)$. Indeed, we obtain an asymptotic formula for these zeros: \[x_n=-…

We present a simplified integral of functions of several variables. Although less general than the Riemann integral, most functions of practical interest are still integrable. On the other hand, the basic integral theorems can be obtained…

We give an asymptotic formula for correlations \[ \sum_{n\le x}f_1(P_1(n))f_2(P_2(n))\cdot \dots \cdot f_m(P_m(n))\] where $f\dots,f_m$ are bounded "pretentious" multiplicative functions, under certain natural hypotheses. We then deduce…

The perturbed NLS equation is asymptotically integrable if the zero-order approximation to the solution is a single soliton. It is not integrable for any other zero-order solution. In the standard application of a Normal Form expansion,…
