We study how well a real number can be approximated by sums of two or more rational numbers with denominators up to a certain size.
A novel method of summation for power series is developed. The method is based on the self-similar approximation theory. The trick employed is in transforming, first, a series expansion into a product expansion and in applying the…
We generalize the method of combinatorial telescoping to the case of multiple summations. We shall demonstrate this idea by giving combinatorial proofs for two identities of Andrews on parity indices of partitions.
We develop a theoretical study of non-terminating hypergeometric summations with one free parameter. Composing various methods in complex and asymptotic analysis, geometry and arithmetic of certain transcendental curves and rational…
In terms of the telescoping method, a simple binomial sum is given. By applying the derivative operators to the equation just mentioned, we establish several general harmonic number identities including some known results.
A submodule $W$ of $V$ is summand absorbing, if $x + y \in W$ implies $x \in W, \; y \in W $ for any $x, y \in V$. Such submodules often appear in modules over (additively) idempotent semirings, particularly in tropical algebra. This paper…
We propose a way to split a given bivariate P-recursive sequence into a summable part and a non-summable part in such a way that the non-summable part is minimal in some sense. This decomposition gives rise to a new reduction-based creative…
In this paper, we study the summability properties of double sequences of real constants which map sequences of random variables to sequences of random variables that are defined on the same probability sample space. We show that a regular…
A general method for calculating asymptotic expansions of infinite sums in thermal field theory is presented. It is shown that the Mellin summation method works elegantly with dimensional regularization. A general result is derived for a…
We evaluate in closed form series of the type $\sum u(n) R(n)$, where $(u(n))_n$ is a strongly $B$-multiplicative sequence and $R(n)$ a (well-chosen) rational function. A typical example is: $$ \sum_{n \geq 1} (-1)^{s_2(n)}…
In some scientific fields, a scaling is able to modify the topology of an observed object. Our goal in the present work is to introduce a new formalism adapted to the mathematical representation of this kind of phenomenon. To this end, we…
The geometric and algebraic theory of valuations on cones is applied to understand identities involving summing certain rational functions over the set of linear extensions of a poset.
Abramov's algorithm enables us to decide whether a univariate rational function can be written as a difference of another rational function, which has been a fundamental algorithm for rational summation. In 2014, Chen and Singer generalized…
The semiring of discrete dynamical systems is a simple algebraic model for modularity in deterministic systems. The objects of the semiring are finite transformations (viewed as directed graphs and regarded up to isomorphism), the sum of…
Summarization is one of the key features of human intelligence. It plays an important role in understanding and representation. With rapid and continual expansion of texts, pictures and videos in cyberspace, automatic summarization becomes…
Recursive formulas extending some known $_{2}F_{1}$ and $_{3}F_{2}$ summation formulas by using contiguous relations have been obtained. On the one hand, these recursive equations are quite suitable for symbolic and numerical evaluation by…
We present a theorem on taking the repeated indefinite summation of a holomorphic function $\phi(z)$ in a vertical strip of $\mathbb{C}$ satisfying exponential bounds as the imaginary part grows. We arrive at this result using transforms…
This review is an extended version of the Seoul ICM 2014 proceedings.It is a short overview of the "topological recursion", a relation appearing in the asymptotic expansion of many integrable systems and in enumerative problems. We recall…
After reviewing some fundamental facts from the theory of theta hypergeometric series we derive, using indefinite summation, several summation, transformation, and expansion formulas for multibasic theta hypergeometric series. Some of the…
We evaluate in closed form several classes of finite trigonometric sums. Two general methods are used. The first is new and involves sums of roots of unity. The second uses contour integration and extends a previous method used by two of…
