A collection of objects, some of which are good and some are bad, is to be divided fairly among agents with different tastes, modeled by additive utility functions. If the objects cannot be shared, so that each of them must be entirely…

In the present paper, we show that, for every $\delta>0$, the function $(\log {\mathcal{L}}(s))^{(m)}$, where $m\in {\mathbb{N}} \cup \{ 0\}$ and ${\mathcal{L}} (s) := \sum_{n=1}^\infty a(n) n^{-s}$ is an element of the Selberg class…

The function $y=\Phi_\alpha(x)$, the solution of $y^\alpha e^y=x$ for $x$ and $y$ large enough, has a series expansion in terms of $\ln x$ and $\ln\ln x$, with coefficients given in terms of Stirling cycle numbers. It is shown that this…

In this paper, two new series for the logarithm of the $\Gamma$-function are presented and studied. Their polygamma analogs are also obtained and discussed. These series involve the Stirling numbers of the first kind and have the property…

Let $r,m$ be positive integers. Let $0\le x <1$ be a rational number. Let $\Phi_s(x,z)$ be the $s$-th Lerch function $\sum_{k=0}^{\infty}\tfrac{z^{k+1}}{(k+x+1)^s}$ with $s=1,2,\ldots ,r$. When $x=0$, this is the polylogarithmic function.…

In this paper, we have investigated the sufficient conditions for periodicity of meromorphic functions and obtained two results directly improving the result of \emph{Bhoosnurmath-Kabbur} \cite{Bho & Kab-2013}, \emph{Qi-Dou-Yang} \cite{Qi &…

In this paper, we give a simple proof and strengthening of a uniqueness theorem of meromorphic functions which partially share 0, $\infty$ CM and 1 IM with their difference operators. Meanwhile, we partial solve a conjecture given by…

In Combinatorics Stirling numbers may be defined in several ways. One such definition is given in [1], where an extensive consideration of Stirling numbers is presented. In this paper an alternative definition of Stirling numbers of both…

Let $\mathcal{S}^*(\alpha_1,\alpha_2)$, where $ \alpha_1, \alpha_2 \in (0,1]$, represent the class of functions $f$ that are analytic in the open unit disk $\mathbb{D}$, normalized by $f(0) = f'(0) - 1=0$, and satisfying the following…

Differential equations of the form $f'' + A(z)f' + B(z)f = 0$ (*) are considered, where $A(z)$ and $B(z) \not\equiv 0$ are entire functions. The Lindel\"of function is used to show that for any $\rho \in (1/2, \infty)$, there exists an…

Let $\chi$ be a real non-principal character modulo a prime $q$ and $L(s,\chi)$ be the corresponding $L$-function. We prove that for any real number $s\geq 1$ there holds $$ -\frac{L'(s,\chi )}{L(s,\chi)}\leq c \log q,$$ where $c$ can be…

This paper is devoted to the uniqueness problem of the power of a meromorphic function with its differential polynomial sharing a set. Our result will extend a number of results obtained in the theory of normal families. Some questions are…

This thesis is concerned with the behavior of random analytic functions. In particular, we are interested in the value distribution of Taylor series with independent random coefficients. We begin with a study of the properties of Fourier…

This is the second part of a work devoted to the study of linear Mahler systems in several variables from the perspective of transcendence and algebraic independence. From the lifting theorem obtained in the first part, we first derive a…

We say that a function $\alpha(x)$ belongs to the set ${\bf A}^{(\gamma)}$ if it has an asymptotic expansion of the form $\alpha(x)\sim \sum^\infty_{i=0}\alpha_ix^{\gamma-i}$ as $x\to\infty$, which can be differentiated term by term…

The Stirling number of a simple graph is the number of partitions of its vertex set into a specific number of non-empty independent sets. In 2015, Engbers et al. showed that the coefficients in the normal ordering of a word $w$ in the…

Two meromorphic functions $f$ and $g$ are said to weakly share a small function $a$ with bi-weight $(n,k)$ if the functions $f-a$ and $g-a$ have the same zeros with multiplicities truncated at level $n+1$, while zeros whose multiplicities…

For a function $f$ starlike of order $\alpha$, $0\leqslant \alpha <1$, a non-constant polynomial $Q$ of degree $n$ which is non-vanishing in the unit disc $\mathbb{D}$ and $\beta>0$, we consider the function $F:\mathbb{D}\to\mathbb{C}$…
