We use the displacement operator to derive an infinite series of integer order derivatives for the Gr\"{u}nwald-Letnikov fractional derivative and show its correspondence to the Riemann-Liouville and Caputo fractional derivatives. We…
We establish closed-form expressions for the infinite series sum from n=2 to infinity of arctanh(n^-k) for all integers k >= 2 by connecting these sums to infinite product formulas involving the gamma function. Our approach uses logarithmic…
This paper considers the computation of the matrix exponential $\mathrm{e}^A$ with numerical quadrature. Although several quadrature-based algorithms have been proposed, they focus on (near) Hermitian matrices. In order to deal with…
We embark on a systematic study of the $(k+1)$-th derivative of $x^{k-r}H(x^r)$, where $H(x):=-x\log x-(1-x)\log(1-x)$ is the binary entropy and $k>r\geq 1$ are integers. Our motivation is the conjectural entropy inequality $\alpha_k…
Recently we have reported a new method of rational approximation of the sinc function obtained by sampling and the Fourier transforms. However, this method requires a trigonometric multiplier that originates from shifting property of the…

We introduce a refined version of the 3D index for 3-manifolds, building on the construction of the 3D $\mathcal{N}=2$ gauge theory $T[M]$ by Dimofte-Gaiotto-Gukov and Gang-Yonekura. The refined index is a superconformal index of $T[M]$…

Accurately estimating the point spread function (PSF) of an optical system requires solving free-space wave propagation, which entails evaluating a diffraction integral. This integral is traditionally computed numerically using Fast Fourier…
