The $\psi(x)$-function, which solves the equation $x = \sinh(aw)e^w$ for $0<a<1$, has a natural connection to the renowned Lambert $W$ function and also physical relevance through its connection to the Lenz-Ising model of ferromagnetism. We…
Let $\mathfrak{f}$ be a transcendental entire function with hyper-order less than one. The aim of this note is to study the value distribution of the differential-difference monomials $\alpha \mathfrak{f}(z)^{q_0}(\mathfrak{f}(z+c))^{q_1}$,…
In this work, we study real numbers $x$ for which $p(x)$ is (absolutely) normal for every non-constant integer-valued polynomial $p$. We call such numbers transcendentally normal. We prove that almost every real number is transcendentally…
In this paper, we give a new proof and an extension of the following result of B\'ezivin. Let $f:\B{N}\to K$ be a multiplicative function taking values in a field $K$ of characteristic 0 and write $F(z)=\sum_{n\geq 1} f(n)z^n\in K[[z]]$ for…
In this paper, we prove a quantitative version of the Oppenheim conjecture for indefinite ternary quadratic forms: for any indefinite irrational ternary quadratic form $Q$ that is not extremely well approxiable by rational forms, and for…
We first observe that the (co)domains of the q-deformed functions are some subsets of the (co)domains of their ordinary counterparts, thereby deeming the deformed functions to be incomplete. In order to obtain a complete definition of…
Let $Z$ and $W$ be a pair of point distributions of finite upper density on the complex plane $\mathbb C$ with the real axis $\mathbb R$. We give several variants of necessary and at the same time sufficient conditions for their…
Tangent numbers $T_{2n-1}$, which enumerate alternating permutations of odd length, play a prominent role in the Taylor series expansion of the tangent function $\tan(x)$. In this work, we adopt a combinatorial approach based on the…
The Tsallis entropy, which possesses non-extensive property, is derived from the first principle employing the non-extensive Hamiltonian or the $q$-deformed Hamiltonian with the canonical ensemble assumption in statistical mechanics. Here,…
This paper is mostly a survey, with a few new results. The first part deals with functional equations for q-exponentials, q-binomials and q-logarithms in q-commuting variables and more generally under q-Heisenberg relations. The second part…
We consider Mahler functions $f(z)$ which solve the functional equation $f(z) = \frac{A(z)}{B(z)} f(z^d)$ where $\frac{A(z)}{B(z)}\in \mathbb{Q}(z)$ and $d\ge 2$ is integer. We prove that for any integer $b$ with $|b|\ge 2$ either $f(b)$ is…
The irrationality exponent of a real number measures how well that number can be approximated by rationals. Real numbers with irrationality exponent strictly greater than $2$ are transcendental numbers, and form a set with rich fractal…
We construct new continued fraction expansions of Jacobi-type J-fractions in $z$ whose power series expansions generate the ratio of the $q$-Pochhamer symbols, $(a; q)_n / (b; q)_n$, for all integers $n \geq 0$ and where $a,b,q \in…
This paper introduces a new numerical method for approximating the Lambert W function in the real domain. The method transforms the function into a simpler form that allows iterative refinement of an initial guess. Two iterative strategies…
We prove and collect numerous explicit and computable results for the fractional Laplacian $(-\Delta)^s f(x)$ with $s>0$ as well as its whole space inverse, the Riesz potential, $(-\Delta)^{-s}f(x)$ with $s\in\left(0,\frac{1}{2}\right)$.…
Continued fraction expansions provide a well-established bridge between algebraic properties of numbers and combinatorics on words. In this article, we investigate the algebraicity of $p$-adic numbers whose continued fractions arise from…
A classical result of Euler states that the tangent numbers are an alternating sum of Eulerian numbers. A dual result of Roselle states that the secant numbers can be obtained by a signed enumeration of derangements. We show that both…
In the present work, we investigate real numbers whose sequence of partial quotients enjoys some combinatorial properties involving the notion of palindrome. We provide three new transendence criteria, that apply to a broad class of…
In Early Transcendentals (The American Mathematical Monthly, Vol. 104, No 7) Steven Weintraub presents a rigorous justifcation of the "early transcendental" calculus textbook approach to the exponential and logarithmic functions. However,…
In this paper we study finite W-algebras for basic classical superalgebras and Q(n) associated to the regular even nilpotent coadjoint orbits. We prove that this algebra satisfies the Amitsur-Levitzki identity and therefore all its…
