We generalize the Mittag-Leffler function by attaching an exponent to its Taylor coefficients. The main result is an asymptotic formula valid in sectors of the complex plane, which extends work by Le Roy [Bull. des sciences math. 24, 1900]…

We provide completely effective error estimates for Stirling numbers of the first and second kind, denoted by $s(n,m)$ and $S(n,m)$, respectively. These bounds are useful for values of $m \geq n - O(\sqrt{n})$. An application of our Theorem…

We prove a analogous of Stein theorem for rational functions in several variables: we bound the number of reducible fibers by a formula depending on the degree of the fraction.

We prove a sharp asymptotic formula for certain oscillatory integrals that may be approached using the stationary phase method. The estimates are uniform in terms of auxiliary parameters, which is crucial for application in analytic number…

For positive integers m and n, denote S(m,n) as the associated Stirling number of the second kind and let z be a complex variable. In this paper, we introduce the Stirling functions S(m,n,z) which satisfy S(m,n,z) = S(m,n) for any z which…

The Taylor expansion is a widely used and powerful tool in all branches of Mathematics, both pure and applied. In Probability and Mathematical Statistics, however, a stronger version of Taylor's classical theorem is often needed, but only…

In a rather straightforward manner, we develop the well-known formula for the Stirling numbers of the first kind in terms of the (exponential) complete Bell polynomials where the arguments include the generalised harmonic numbers. We also…

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…

In this paper we improve drastically the estimate for the multiplicity of a binary recurrence. The main contribution comes from an effective version of the Faltings' Product Theorem.

Given an integer $n \ge 2$, its prime factorization is expressed as $n= \prod_{i=1}^s p_i^{a_i}$. We define the function $f(n)$ as the smallest positive integer such that $f(n)!$ is divisible by $n$. The main objective of this paper is to…
