The Hirsch index (commonly referred to as h-index) is a bibliometric indicator which is widely recognized as effective for measuring the scientific production of a scholar since it summarizes size and impact of the research output. In a…
For functions $f$ of a continuous variable in $\mathbb{R}^{+}$ we show that the Hirsch function $h_f$ equals $f$ iff $(f(f(x)) = x f(x))$ on $\mathbb{R}^{+}$, leading for continuous $f$ to $f$ = $\emptyset$ or the power function $f(x)$ =…
In this work, we discuss the continuity of $h$-convex functions by introducing the concepts of $h$-convex curves ($h$-cord). Geometric interpretation of $h$-convexity is given. The fact that for a $h$-continuous function $f$, is being…
The h-index can be used as a predictor of itself. However, the evolution of the h-index with time is shown in the present investigation to be dominated for several years by citations to previous publications rather than by new scientific…
An arithmetic function $f$ is Leibniz-additive if there is a completely multiplicative function $h_f$, i.e., $h_f(1)=1$ and $h_f(mn)=h_f(m)h_f(n)$ for all positive integers $m$ and $n$, satisfying $$ f(mn)=f(m)h_f(n)+f(n)h_f(m) $$ for all…
Integral properties of multifunctions determined by vector valued functions are presented. Such multifunctions quite often serve as examples and counterexamples. In particular it can be observed that the properties of being integrable in…
We construct a H\"older continuous function on the unit interval which coincides in uncountably (in fact continuum) many points with every function of total variation smaller than 1 passing through the origin. We say that a function with…
In this paper we introduce a new fractional derivative with respect to another function the so-called $\psi$-Hilfer fractional derivative. We discuss some properties and important results of the fractional calculus. In this sense, we…
We examine the question of which characteristic functions yield Weyl-Heisenberg frames for various values of the parameters. We also give numerous applications of frames of characteristic functions to the general case (g,a,b).
In the paper, the authors establish, by using Cauchy integral formula in the theory of complex functions, an integral representation for the geometric mean of $n$ positive numbers. From this integral representation, the geometric mean is…
Given a suitable arithmetic function h, we investigate the average order of h as it ranges over the values taken by an integral binary form F. A general upper bound is obtained for this quantity, in which the dependence upon the…
In this note, we establish the Lipschitz continuity of finite-dimensional globally convex functions on all given balls and global Lipschitz continuity for eligible functions of that type. The Lipschitz constants in both situations draw…
In this note I prove the following property of Herglotz functions, which to my knowledge is new: For a Herglotz function $h(z)$ and a real number $r \in \mathbb R$ define a Herglotz function $g_r(z) = (r - h(z))^{-1}.$ Let $\mu_r^{(s)}$ be…
In this paper, we prove that every continuous $h$-mid-convex with suitable conditions on $h$ is $h$-convex function. Also, we extend Ostrowski theorem, Blumberg-Sierpinski theorem, Bernstein-Doetsch theorem, Mehdi theorem.
Formulas for calculating the Riesz function, introduced by Marcel Riesz in connection with the Riemann hypothesis, are derived; and the behavior of the Riesz function is discussed.
A multidimensional generalization of the Bernstein class of functions and the properties of functions of the introduced class are examined. In particular, a new proof of the integral representation of Bernstein functions of many variables…
In this paper a natural generalization of the familiar H -function of Fox namely the I -function is proposed. Convergence conditions, various series representations, elementary properties and special cases for the I -function have also been…
We determine the precise conditions under which any skew Schur function is equal to a Schur function over both infinitely and finitely many variables.
Using generalized hypergeometric functions to perform symbolic manipulation of equations is of great importance to pure and applied scientists. There are in the literature a great number of identities for the Meijer-G function. On the other…
We give necessary and sufficient criteria for a distribution to be smooth or uniformly H\"{o}lder continuous in terms of approximation sequences by smooth functions; in particular, in terms of those arising as regularizations…
