Creative telescoping is a powerful computer algebra paradigm -initiated by Doron Zeilberger in the 90's- for dealing with definite integrals and sums with parameters. We address the mixed continuous-discrete case, and focus on the…
Hermite reduction is a classical algorithmic tool in symbolic integration. It is used to decompose a given rational function as a sum of a function with simple poles and the derivative of another rational function. We extend Hermite…
Continuing a series of articles in the past few years on creative telescoping using reductions, we adapt Trager's Hermite reduction for algebraic functions to fuchsian D-finite functions and develop a reduction-based creative telescoping…
Usually creative telescoping is used to derive recurrences for sums. In this article we show that the non-existence of a creative telescoping solution, and more generally, of a parameterized telescoping solution, proves algebraic…
The ubiquity of the class of D-finite functions and P-recursive sequences in symbolic computation is widely recognized. In this thesis, the presented work consists of two parts related to this class. In the first part, we generalize the…
The long-term goal initiated in this work is to obtain fast algorithms and implementations for definite integration in Almkvist and Zeilberger's framework of (differential) creative telescoping. Our complexity-driven approach is to obtain…
Creative telescoping algorithms compute linear differential equations satisfied by multiple integrals with parameters. We describe a precise and elementary algorithmic version of the Griffiths-Dwork method for the creative telescoping of…
We present a new algorithm to compute minimal telescopers for rational functions in two discrete variables. As with recent reduction-based approaches, our algorithm has the important feature that the computation of a telescoper is…

We showcase a collection of practical strategies to deal with a problem arising from an analysis of integral estimators derived via quasi-Monte Carlo methods. The problem reduces to a triple binomial sum, thereby enabling us to open up the…
Creative telescoping is the method of choice for obtaining information about definite sums or integrals. It has been intensively studied since the early 1990s, and can now be considered as a classical technique in computer algebra. At the…
We present a reduction algorithm that simultaneously extends Hermite's reduction for rational functions and the Hermite-like reduction for hyperexponential functions. It yields a unique additive decomposition and allows to decide…
We extend Zeilberger's approach to special function identities to cases that are not holonomic. The method of creative telescoping is thus applied to definite sums or integrals involving Stirling or Bernoulli numbers, incomplete Gamma…
The Abramov-Petkovsek reduction computes an additive decomposition of a hypergeometric term, which extends the functionality of the Gosper algorithm for indefinite hypergeometric summation. We modify the Abramov-Petkovsek reduction so as to…
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…
Parameterized telescoping (including telescoping and creative telescoping) and refined versions of it play a central role in the research area of symbolic summation. Karr introduced 1981 $\Pi\Sigma$-fields, a general class of difference…
We adapt the theory of normal and special polynomials from symbolic integration to the summation setting, and then built up a general framework embracing both the usual shift case and the $q$-shift case. In the context of this general…
In this note we reinvestigate the task of computing creative telescoping relations in differential-difference operator algebras. Our approach is based on an ansatz that explicitly includes the denominators of the delta parts. We contribute…
A summation framework is developed that enhances Karr's difference field approach. It covers not only indefinite nested sums and products in terms of transcendental extensions, but it can treat, e.g., nested products defined over roots of…
We present a new algorithm for constructing minimal telescopers for rational functions in three discrete variables. This is the first discrete reduction-based algorithm that goes beyond the bivariate case. The termination of the algorithm…
