We construct a new type of convergent asymptotic representations, dyadic factorial expansions. Their convergence is geometric and the region of convergence can include Stokes rays, and often extends down to 0^+. For special functions such…
We introduce the concept of fractels for functions and discuss their analytic and algebraic properties. We also consider the representation of polynomials and analytic functions using fractels, and the consequences of these representations…
