We point out to a connection between a problem of invariance of power series families of probability distributions under binomial thinning and functional equations which generalize both the Cauchy and an additive form of the…

Let $\mu$ be a positive Borel measure on the interval $[0,1)$. For $\gamma>0$, the Hankel matrix $\mathcal{H}_{\mu,\gamma}=(\mu_{n,k})_{n,k\geq0}$ with entries $\mu_{n,k}=\mu_{n+k}$, where $\mu_{n+k}=\int_{0}^{\infty}t^{n+k}d\mu(t)$.…

The practical usefulness of Levin-type nonlinear sequence transformations as numerical tools for the summation of divergent series or for the convergence acceleration of slowly converging series, is nowadays beyond dispute. Weniger's…

In 1960 Schwinger [J. Schwinger, Proc.Natl.Acad.Sci. 46 (1960) 570- 579] proposed the algorithm for factorization of unitary operators in the finite M dimensional Hilbert space according to a coprime decomposition of M. Using a special…

We give a probabilistic interpretation for the Barnes G-function which appears in random matrix theory and in analytic number theory in the important moments conjecture due to Keating-Snaith for the Riemann zeta function, via the analogy…

The Lambert W function gives the solutions of a simple exponential polynomial. The generalized Lambert W function was defined by Mez\"{o} and Baricz, and has found applications in delay differential equations and physics. In this article we…

We introduce a shifted version of the binomial theorem, and use it to study some remarkable trigonometric integrals and their explicit rewriting in terms of binomial multiple sums. Motivated by the expressions of area generating functions…

In the first part of this paper, we express the generalized Bessel function associated with dihedral systems and a constant multiplicity function as a infinite series of confluent Horn functions. The key ingredient leading to this…

We study a novel spline-like basis, which we name the "falling factorial basis", bearing many similarities to the classic truncated power basis. The advantage of the falling factorial basis is that it enables rapid, linear-time computations…

In this mainly expository article, we revisit some formal aspects of B{\'a}ez-Duarte's criterion for the Riemann hypothesis. In particular, starting from Weingartner's formulation of the criterion, we define an arithmetical function $\nu$,…

The transformation of a Laguerre series $f (z) = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} \lambda_{n}^{(\alpha)} L_{n}^{(\alpha)} (z)$ to a power series $f (z) = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} \gamma_{n} z^{n}$ is discussed. Many nonanalytic functions can be expanded in…

We apply an improved version of Batalin-Fradkin-Tyutin (BFT) Hamiltonian method to the a=1 chiral Schwinger Model, which is much more nontrivial than the a>1.$ one. Furthermore, through the path integral quantization, we newly resolve the…

We study Brown's definition of the probabilistic zeta function of a finite lattice as a generalization of that of a finite group. We propose a natural alternative or extension that may be better suited for non-atomistic lattices. The…

We define the generalized-Euler-constant function $\gamma(z)=\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} z^{n-1} (\frac{1}{n}-\log \frac{n+1}{n})$ when $|z|\leq 1$. Its values include both Euler's constant $\gamma=\gamma(1)$ and the "alternating Euler constant"…

Stirling approximation of the factorials and multinominal coefficients are generalized based on the one-parameter ($\kappa$) deformed functions introduced by Kaniadakis [Phys. Rev. E \textbf{66} (2002) 056125]. We have obtained the relation…

Summation formulas, such as the Euler-Maclaurin expansion or Gregory's quadrature, have found many applications in mathematics, ranging from accelerating series, to evaluating fractional sums and analyzing asymptotics, among others. We show…

The classical Lerch's formula states the following normalized product: $$\prod_{n=0}^\infty(x+n)=\frac{\sqrt{2\pi}}{\Gamma(x)},\quad \textrm{Re}(x)>0, $$ where $\Gamma(x)$ is the Euler gamma function. In this note, by using Barnes' multiple…

An overlooked formula of E. Lucas for the generalized Bernoulli numbers is proved using generating functions. This is then used to provide a new proof and a new form of a sum involving classical Bernoulli numbers studied by K. Dilcher. The…
