We investigate fractional sums of arithmetic functions over products of two or three integers, with emphasis on fixed greatest common divisors and multiplicative weights. Let $f$ be an arithmetic function satisfying $f(n) \ll n^\alpha$ for…
We show that the additive-slow-Farey version of the traditional continued fractions algorithm has a natural interpretation as a method for producing integer partitions of a positive number $n$ into two smaller numbers, with multiplicity. We…
This is a survey on the use of Fourier transformation methods in the treatment of boundary problems for the fractional Laplacian $(-\Delta)^a$ (0<a<1), and pseudodifferential generalizations P, over a bounded open set $\Omega$ in $R^n$. The…
In this paper, given a certain regularity of a function $v$, we derive an explicit formula relating the order $\nu_0\in(0,1)$ of the leading fractional derivative in a fractional differential operator $\mathbf{D_t}$ with the variable…
For a sample of absolutely bounded i.i.d. random variables with a continuous density the cumulative distribution function of the sample variance is represented by a univariate integral over a Fourier series. If the density is a polynomial…
For an integer $c\geq 1$, let $a_c(n)$ count the number of generalized cubic partitions of $n$, which are partitions of $n$ whose even parts may appear in $c$ different colors, and $d_c(n)$ count the number of partitions obtained by adding…
In this paper we establish function field versions of two classical conjectures on prime numbers. The first says that the number of primes in intervals (x,x+x^epsilon] is about x^epsilon/log x and the second says that the number of primes…
I propose and investigate the use of continuous functional equations for the study of meta-Fibonacci integer sequences. This exploratory study includes three sequences with quite different behavior: Conway's famous sequence $A(n)=…
In this paper, we study 1D autonomous fractional ODEs $D_c^{\gamma}u=f(u), 0< \gamma <1$, where $u: [0,\infty)\mapsto\mathbb{R}$ is the unknown function and $D_c^{\gamma}$ is the generalized Caputo derivative introduced by Li and Liu (…
For a distribution $F^{*\tau}$ of a random sum $S_{\tau}=\xi_1+...+\xi_{\tau}$ of i.i.d. random variables with a common distribution $F$ on the half-line $[0,\infty)$, we study the limits of the ratios of tails…
We consider the $d=1$ nonlinear Fokker-Planck-like equation with fractional derivatives $\frac{\partial}{\partial t}P(x,t)=D \frac{\partial^{\gamma}}{\partial x^{\gamma}}[P(x,t) ]^{\nu}$. Exact time-dependent solutions are found for $ \nu =…
We prove new bounds on the distributed fractional coloring problem in the LOCAL model. Fractional $c$-colorings can be understood as multicolorings as follows. For some natural numbers $p$ and $q$ such that $p/q\leq c$, each node $v$ is…
Recently, Mboup, Join and Fliess [27], [28] introduced non-asymptotic integer order differentiators by using an algebraic parametric estimation method [7], [8]. In this paper, in order to obtain non-asymptotic fractional order…
We extend a result of Han\v{c}l, Kolouch and Nair on the irrationality and transcendence of continued fractions. We show that for a sequence $\{\alpha_n\}$ of algebraic integers of bounded degree, each attaining the maximum absolute value…
We study the spectrum of the QCD Dirac operator for two colors with fermions in the fundamental representation and for two or more colors with adjoint fermions. For $N_f$ flavors, the chiral flavor symmetry of these theories is…

Let $\frac{a_1}{b_1}, \frac{a_2}{b_2}, \ldots$ be the Farey fractions of order $n$. We then prove that the inequality $(a_l - a_k)(b_l - b_k) \ge 0$ holds for all $k$ and $l > k$ with $l-k \le \left(\frac{1}{12} - o(1) \right)n$, sharpening…
A finite difference numerical method is investigated for fractional order diffusion problems in one space dimension. For this, a mathematical model is developed to incorporate homogeneous Dirichlet and Neumann type boundary conditions. The…
It is well known that for every $f\in C^m$ there exists a polynomial $p_n$ such that $p^{(k)}_n\rightarrow f^{(k)}$, $k=0,\ldots,m$. Here we prove such a result for fractional (non-integer) derivatives. Moreover, a numerical method is…
