The transformation theory of the Appell $F_2(a,b_1,b_2;c_1,c_2;x,y)$ double hypergeometric function is used to obtain a set of series representations of $F_2$ which provide an efficient way to evaluate $F_2$ for real values of its arguments…
We derive the scaling function for the one dimensional noisy Burgers equation in the two-soliton approximation within the weak noise canonical phase space approach. The result is in agreement with an earlier heuristic expression and…

Simple inequalities are established for some integrals involving the modified Bessel functions of the first and second kind. In most cases, we show that we obtain the best possible constant or that our bounds are tight in certain limits. We…
The goal of the \emph{alignment problem} is to align a (given) point cloud $P = \{p_1,\cdots,p_n\}$ to another (observed) point cloud $Q = \{q_1,\cdots,q_n\}$. That is, to compute a rotation matrix $R \in \mathbb{R}^{3 \times 3}$ and a…

In this paper we construct approximations for the Caputo derivative of order $1-\alpha,2-\alpha,2$ and $3-\alpha$. The approximations have weights $0.5\left((k+1)^{-\alpha}-(k-1)^{-\alpha}\right)/\Gamma(1-\alpha)$ and…

This paper examines the problem of extrapolation of an analytic function for $x > 1$ given perturbed samples from an equally spaced grid on $[-1,1]$. Mathematical folklore states that extrapolation is in general hopelessly ill-conditioned,…
Fixpoints are ubiquitous in computer science and when dealing with quantitative semantics and verification one often considers least fixpoints of (higher-dimensional) functions over the non-negative reals. We show how to approximate the…
We propose an analytical approximation for the modified Bessel function of the second kind $K_\nu$. The approximation is derived from an exponential ansatz imposing global constrains. It yields local and global errors of less than one…
The present paper establishes equivalence between uniform rectifiability of the boundary of a domain and the property that the Green function for elliptic operators is well approximated by affine functions (distance to the hyperplanes). The…
We study the best uniform approximation by polynomials of fixed degree of the function sgn(x) on the union of two intervals symmetric with respect to the origin. We obtain precise asymptotics, with explicit constants, for the error of the…
We study the function $\varphi_1$ of minimal $L^1$ norm among all functions $f$ of exponential type at most $\pi$ for which $f(0)=1$. This function, first studied by H\"{o}rmander and Bernhardsson in 1993, has only real zeros $\pm \tau_n$,…

The focus of this article is the approximation of functions which are analytic on a compact interval except at the endpoints. Typical numerical methods for approximating such functions depend upon the use of particular conformal maps from…
