The leading asymptotic behaviour of the Humbert functions $\Phi_2$, $\Phi_3$, $\Xi_2$ of two variables is found, when the absolute values of the two independent variables become simultaneosly large. New integral representations of these…
We consider transcendental entire solutions of linear $q$-difference equations with polynomial coefficients and determine the asymptotic behavior of their Taylor coefficients. We use this to show that under a suitable hypothesis on the…
We show the connection formula for the basic hypergeometric series ${}_3\varphi_1(a_1,a_2,a_3;b_1;q,x)$ between around the origin and infinity by the using of the $q$-Borel-Laplace transformations. We also show the limit $q\to 1-0$ of the…
Asymptotic expansions are derived for Gegenbauer (ultraspherical) polynomials for large order $n$ that are uniformly valid for unbounded complex values of the argument $z$, including the real interval $0 \leq z \leq 1$ in which the zeros in…
We establish a new asymptotic formula for the number of polynomials of degree $n$ with $k$ prime factors over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. The error term tends to $0$ uniformly in $n$ and in $q$, and $k$ can grow beyond $\log n$.…
Uniform asymptotic expansions involving exponential and Airy functions are obtained for Laguerre polynomials $L_{n}^{(\alpha)}(x)$, as well as complementary confluent hypergeometric functions. The expansions are valid for $n$ large and…
We employ the exponentially improved asymptotic expansions of the confluent hypergeometric functions on the Stokes lines discussed by the author [Appl. Math. Sci. {\bf 7} (2013) 6601--6609] to give the analogous expansions of the modified…
Integral representations of two $q$-difference operators are provided in terms of special functions arising in the theory of asymptotic solutions to $q$-difference equations in the complex domain. Both representations are unified through…
We will use a discrete analogue of the classical Laplace method to show that for infinitely many positive integers $n$, the main term of the asymptotic expansion of the scaled $q$-exponential $(-q^{-nt+1/2}u;q)_{\infty}$ could be expressed…
The refined asymptotic expansion of the confluent hypergeometric function $M(a,b,z)$ on the Stokes line $\arg\,z=\pi$ given in {\it Appl. Math. Sci.} {\bf 7} (2013) 6601--6609 is employed to derive the correct exponentially small…
Reformulated uniform asymptotic expansions are derived for ordinary differential equations having a large parameter and a simple turning point. These involve Airy functions, but not their derivatives, unlike traditional asymptotic…
Asymptotic expansions are derived for associated Legendre functions of degree $\nu$ and order $\mu$, where one or the other of the parameters is large. The expansions are uniformly valid for unbounded real and complex values of the argument…
Using the Riemann-Hilbert approach, we explicitly construct the asymptotic $\Psi$-function corresponding to the solution $y\sim\pm\sqrt{-x/2}$ as $|x|\to\infty$ to the second Painlev\'e equation $y_{xx}=2y^3+xy-\alpha$. We precisely…
An algebraic $q$-difference equation is considered. A sufficient condition for the existence of a formal power-logarithmic expansion of a solution to such an equation in the neighborhood of zero is proposed. An example of applying this…
In this paper, we derive new asymptotic expansions for the solutions of higher order elliptic equations in the presence of small inclusions. As a byproduct, we derive a topological derivative based algorithm for the reconstruction of…
This paper is a continuation of our analysis, begun in arXiv:1310.2276, of the rational solutions of the inhomogeneous Painleve-II equation and associated rational solutions of the homogeneous coupled Painleve-II system in the limit of…
What are the asymptotic moments of coefficients obtained when expanding prod_{m=1}^infty (1-q^m)^k in series? A few examples are given, as well as a new multiplicative representation for coefficients when k=10 and k=14.
We construct a new type of convergent, and asymptotic, representations, dyadic expansions. Their convergence is geometric and the region of convergence often extends from infinity down to $0^+$. We show that dyadic expansions are…
We introduce a finite difference and $q$-difference analogues of the Asymptotic Iteration Method of Ciftci, Hall, and Saad. We give necessary, and sufficient condition for the existence of a polynomial solution to a general linear…
We address the problem of ambiguity of a function determined by an asymptotic perturbation expansion. Using a modified form of the Watson lemma recently proved elsewhere, we discuss a large class of functions determined by the same…
