An efficient hybrid numerical method for multiple scattering calculations is proposed. We use the well established doubling--adding method to find the reflection function of the lowermost homogeneous slab comprising the atmosphere of our…

The second Hardy-Littlewood conjecture asserts that the prime counting function $\pi(x)$ satisfies the subadditive inequality \begin{align*} \pi(x+y)\leqslant \pi(x)+\pi (y) \end{align*} for all integers $x,y\geqslant 2$. By linking the…

We consider an analogue of Nakada's $\alpha$-continued fraction transformation in the setting of continued fractions with odd partial quotients. More precisely, given $\alpha \in [\frac{1}{2}(\sqrt{5}-1),\frac{1}{2}(\sqrt{5}+1)]$, we show…

This work introduces an unconventional inexact augmented Lagrangian method where the augmenting term is a Euclidean norm raised to a power between one and two. The proposed algorithm is applicable to a broad class of constrained nonconvex…

We consider a class of multi-component hybrid inflation models whose evolution may be analytically solved under the slow-roll approximation. We call it multi-brid inflation (or $n$-brid inflation where $n$ stands for the number of inflaton…

Real and imaginary part of the limit 2N->infinity of the integral int_{x=1..2N} exp(i*pi*x)*x^(1/x) dx are evaluated to 20 digits with brute force methods after multiple partial integration, or combining a standard Simpson integration over…

In this paper we give new estimates for integrals involving some arithmetic functions defined over prime numbers. The main focus here is on the prime counting function $\pi(x)$ and the Chebyshev $\vartheta$-function. Some of these estimates…

The most general situation of the reinforcement of a plate with multiple holes by several patches is considered. There is no restriction on the number and the location of the patches. Two types of the patch attachment are considered: only…

We introduce a new type of partitions that consists of partitions whose different parts alternate in parity (e.g., $3+2+2+1+1$). Various properties of this partition function are studied. In particular, we obtain its asymptotic behavior by…

The proximal point algorithm (PPA) has been developed to solve the monotone variational inequality problem. It provides a theoretical foundation for some methods, such as the augmented Lagrangian method (ALM) and the alternating direction…

We present a new proof of Harish-Chandra's formula $$\Pi(h_1) \Pi(h_2) \int_G e^{\langle \mathrm{Ad}_g h_1, h_2 \rangle} dg = \frac{ [ \! [ \Pi, \Pi ] \!] }{|W|} \sum_{w \in W} \epsilon(w) e^{\langle w(h_1),h_2 \rangle},$$ where $G$ is a…

Given an increasing function $H:[0,1)\to [0,\infty)$ and $$ A_n(H):=\inf_{\tau\in \mathcal{T}_n}(\sum_{i=1}^n \int_{t_{i-1}}^{t_i} (t_i-t)H^2(t)dt)^{{1/2}}, $$ where $\mathcal{T}_n:=\{\tau=(t_i)_{i=0}^n: 0=t_0<t_1<...<t_n=1\}$, we…

We introduce iterated beta integrals, a new class of iterated integrals on the universal abelian covering of the punctured projective line that unifies hyperlogarithms and classical beta integrals while preserving their fundamental…

Let $\mathcal{A}\subset\mathbb{R}_{\geqslant1}$ be a countable set such that $\limsup_{x\to\infty}\frac{1}{\log x}\sum_{\alpha\in\mathcal{A}\cap[1,x]}\frac{1}{\alpha}>0$. We prove that, for every $\varepsilon>0$, there exist infinitely many…

We associate some (old) convergent series related to definite integrals with the cyclotomic equation $x^m-1= 0$, for several natural numbers $m$; for example, for $m = 3$, $x^3-1 = (x-1)(1+x+x^2)$, leads to $\int_0^1dx\frac{1}{(1+x+x^2)} =…

For any fixed $k\geq 2$, we prove that every sufficiently large integer can be expressed as the sum of a $k$th power of a prime and a number with at most $M(k)=6k$ prime factors. For sufficiently large $k$ we also show that one can take…

In this article we show a tecnique based on the Weierstrass product for the sine and cosine function and the bisection formula for the cotangent function that leads to a generalization of the classical Shafer-Fink inequality $ \frac{3…
