For integers $g,m \geq 0$ and $n>0$, let $S_{g}(n,m)$ denote the graph taken uniformly at random from the set of all graphs on $\{1,2, \ldots, n\}$ with exactly $m=m(n)$ edges and with genus at most $g$. We use counting arguments to…

Let ${\sf G}$ be a locally compact group with polynomial growth of order $d$, a polynomial weight $\nu$ on ${\sf G}$ and a Fell bundle $\mathscr C\overset{q}{\to}{\sf G}$. We study the Banach $^*$-algebras $L^1({\sf G}\,\vert\,\mathscr C)$…

This is a discussion of miscellaneous summation, integration and transformation formulas obtained using Fourier analysis. The topics covered are: Series of the form $\sum_{n\in\mathbb{Z}} c_ne^{\pi i \gamma n^2}$; Fusion of integrals, and…

We study the complexity of approximating complex zero sets of certain $n$-variate exponential sums. We show that the real part, $R$, of such a zero set can be approximated by the $(n-1)$-dimensional skeleton, $T$, of a polyhedral…

Let $G$ be a simple graph with $n$ vertices and $e(G)$ edges, and $q_1(G)\geq q_2(G)\geq\cdots\geq q_n(G)\geq0$ be the signless Laplacian eigenvalues of $G.$ Let $S_k^+(G)=\sum_{i=1}^{k}q_i(G),$ where $k=1, 2, \ldots, n.$ F. Ashraf et al.…

In a recent study of the quantum theory of harmonic oscillators, Gerard 't Hooft proposed the following problem: given $G(z)=\sum_{n=1}^\infty\sqrt{n}\,z^n$ for $|z|<1$, find its analytic continuation for $|z|\ge1$, excluding a branch-cut…

Writing for a general mathematical audience, we provide elementary upper and lower bounds on the growth (as a function of N) of the sum \sum_{n=1}^N (-1)^{\floor{n x}} for various fixed x. For example, if x is a quadratic irrational, then…

The objective of this short note is to provide two closed-form evaluations for the generalized hypergeometric function $_4F_3$ of the argument $\frac1{16}$. This is achieved by means of separating a generalized hypergeometric function…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective curve over a number field $k$. Let $f\colon X \to \mathbb{P}^1$ be a non-constant morphism that realizes the gonality of $X$. In this article we study the growth rate of $\left\{P\in X\left(\overline{k}…

Let $X$ be a connected, locally finite graph with symmetric growth. We prove that there is a vertex coloring $\phi\colon X\to\{0,1\}$ and some $R\in\mathbb{N}$ such that every automorphism $f$ preserving $\phi$ is $R$-close to the identity…

Given a graph G of order n and size m, let s(G)= sum|d(u)-2m/n|, where the sum is taken over all vertices u of G. We investigate upper and lower bounds on eigenvalues of G in terms of s(G).

Given a periodic function $f$, we study the almost everywhere and norm convergence of series $\sum_{k=1}^\infty c_k f(kx)$. As the classical theory shows, the behavior of such series is determined by a combination of analytic and number…

Although many series exist for $\pi$ and $\pi^2$, very few are known for $\pi^3$. In this article, we derive, using a trigonometric identity obtained by Euler, two representations of $\pi^3$ involving infinite sums and the golden ratio. The…

Topographs, introduced by Conway in 1997, are infinite trivalent planar trees used to visualize the values of binary quadratic forms. In this work, we study series whose terms are indexed by the vertices of a topograph and show that they…

The purpose of this note is to prove estimates for $$ \left| \sum_{k=1}^{n} \mbox{sign} \left( \cos \left( \frac{2\pi a}{n} k \right) \right) \mbox{sign} \left( \cos \left( \frac{2\pi b}{n} k \right) \right)\right|,$$ when $n$ is prime and…

We present algorithms to evaluate two types of multiple sums, which appear in higher-order loop computations. We consider expansions of a generalized hypergeometric-type sums, $\sum_{n_1,...,n_N} [Gamma(a1.n+c1) Gamma(a2.n}+c2) ...…

We study random exponential sums of the form $\sum_{k=1}^nX_k\times\ex p\{i(\lambda_k^{(1)}t_1+...+\lambda_k^{(s)}t_s)\}$, where $\{X_n\}$ is a sequence of random variables and $\{\lambda_n^{(i)}:1\leq i\leq s\}$ are sequences of real…

A survey is given on mathematical structures which emerge in multi-loop Feynman diagrams. These are multiply nested sums, and, associated to them by an inverse Mellin transform, specific iterated integrals. Both classes lead to sets of…

By applying the Newton-Gregory expansion to the polynomial associated with the sum of powers of integers $S_k(n) = 1^k + 2^k + \cdots + n^k$, we derive a couple of infinite families of explicit formulas for $S_k(n)$. One of the families…

A large-scale experiment was conducted to find formulas relating to the base $e^\pi$. The numbers in this base are $$x = \sum_{n=0}^\infty {a(n)\over e^{\pi n}}$$ where $a(n)$ is taken from the OEIS catalog. These experiments were inspired…
