Asymptotic expansions are obtained for contour integrals of the form \[ \int_a^b \exp \left( - zp(t) + z^{\nu /\mu } r(t) \right)q(t)dt, \] in which $z$ is a large real or complex parameter, $p(t)$, $q(t)$ and $r(t)$ are analytic functions…
In this work in progress, we study the asymptotic behaviour of the $p$-quantile of the Beta distribution, i.e. the quantity $q$ defined implicitly by $\int_0^q t^{a - 1} (1 - t)^{b - 1} \text{d} t = p B (a, b)$, as a function of the first…
This paper establishes new results concerning asymptotic expansions of $q$-series related to partial theta functions. We first establish a new method to obtain asymptotic expansions using a result of Ono and Lovejoy, and then build on these…
This article derives full asymptotic expansions for integrals of the form \[ \int_{0}^{1}f(u)(1+q\cdot u^{n})^{w/n}du \] as $n\rightarrow\infty$, with parameters real $w\neq 0$ and $q\in(-1,1]$, or positive $w$ for $q=-1$. We relate the…
The Riemann-Siegel theta function $\vartheta(t)$ is examined for $t\to+\infty$. Use of the refined asymptotic expansion for $\log\,\g(z)$ shows that the expansion of $\vartheta(t)$ contains an infinite sequence of increasingly subdominant…
In this paper we obtain the precise description of the asymptotic behavior of the solution $u$ of $$ \partial_t u+(-\Delta)^{\frac{\theta}{2}}u=0\quad\mbox{in}\quad{\bf R}^N\times(0,\infty), \qquad u(x,0)=\varphi(x)\quad\mbox{in}\quad{\bf…
In this work we study complete asymptotic expansions for the q-series $\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{1}{n^{b}}q^{n^{a}}$ and $\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{\sigma_{\alpha}(n)}{n^{b}}q^{n^{a}}$ in the scale function $(\log q)^{n}$ as $q\to1^{-}$,…
In this paper, we expand functions of specific $q$-exponential growth in terms of its even (odd) Askey- Wilson $q$-derivatives at $0$ and $\eta=(q^{1/4}+q^{-1/4})/2$. This expansion is a $q$-version of the celebrated Lidstone expansion…
We present expressions for the coefficients which arise in asymptotic expansions of multiple integrals of Laplace type (the first term of which is known as Laplace's approximation) in terms of asymptotic series of the functions in the…
Let $\alpha$ and $\beta$ be irrational real numbers and $0<\F<1/30$. We prove a precise estimate for the number of positive integers $q\leq Q$ that satisfy $\|q\alpha\|\cdot\|q\beta\|<\F$. If we choose $\F$ as a function of $Q$ we get…
In this work we investigate the asymptotics for Euler's $q$-Exponential $E_{q}(z)$, $q$-Gamma function $\Gamma_{q}(z)$, Ramanujan's function $A_{q}(z)$, Jackson's $q$-Bessel function $J_{\nu}^{(2)}$(z;q) of second kind, Stieltjes-Wigert…
This paper analyzes over 30 types of q-series and the asymptotic behavior of their expansions. A method is described for deriving further asymptotic formulas using convolutions of generating functions with subexponential growth. All…
We propose an asymptotic expansion formula for matrix integrals, including oscillatory terms (derivatives of theta-functions) to all orders. This formula is heuristically derived from the analogy between matrix integrals, and formal matrix…
We discuss $Q(n)$, the number of ways a given integer $n$ may be written as a sum of distinct primes, and study its asymptotic form $Q_{as}(n)$ valid in the limit $n\to\infty$. We obtain $Q_{as}(n)$ by Laplace inverting the fermionic…
We present a simple result that allows us to evaluate the asymptotic order of the remainder of a partial asymptotic expansion of the quantile function $h(u)$ as $u\to 0^+$ or $1^-$. This is focussed on important univariate distributions…
In this paper, we prove asymptotic expansions of generalized partial theta functions with a nonprincipal Dirichlet character and relate these expansions to certain $L$-series.
