The generalization of the factorization method performed by Mielnik [J. Math. Phys. {\bf 25}, 3387 (1984)] opened new ways to generate exactly solvable potentials in quantum mechanics. We present an application of Mielnik's method to…

Cyclotomic polylogarithms are reviewed and new results concerning the special constants that occur are presented. This also allows some comments on previous literature results using PSLQ.

In this paper, we consider several special polynomials related to associated sequences of polynomials. Finally, we give some new and interesting identities of those polynomials arising from transfer formula for the associated sequences.

We determine the special values at positive integers of the spectral zeta function associated with the combinatorial Laplacian on the regular tree. These values admit explicit formulas in terms of certain polynomials, which we show to be…

The basis of this work is a simple, extended corollary of Wilson's theorem. This corollary generates many more quotients than those already generated by Wilson's theorem, and it was of interest to derive how they relate to each other and…

We use the periodicity properties of generalized Gauss sums to factor numbers. Moreover, we derive rules for finding the factors and illustrate this factorization scheme for various examples. This algorithm relies solely on interference and…

While the definition of a fractional integral may be codified by Riemann and Liouville, an agreed-upon fractional derivative has eluded discovery for many years. This is likely a result of integral definitions including numerous constants…

Dawid, Kjaerulff and Lauritzen (1994) provided a preliminary description of a hybrid between Monte-Carlo sampling methods and exact local computations in junction trees. Utilizing the strengths of both methods, such hybrid inference methods…

The Jacobi-Stirling numbers of the first and second kinds were introduced in 2006 in the spectral theory and are polynomial refinements of the Legendre-Stirling numbers. Andrews and Littlejohn have recently given a combinatorial…

We give the theorem of coincidence of a class of functions defined by a generalised modulus of smoothness with a class of functions defined by the order of the best approximation by algebraic polynomials. We also prove the appropriate…

In this paper we present a systematic way to describe exceptional Jacobi polynomials via two partitions. We give the construction of these polynomials and restate the known aspects of these polynomials in terms of their partitions. The aim…

Exponential sums have applications to a variety of scientific fields, including, but not limited to, cryptography, coding theory and information theory. Closed formulas for exponential sums of symmetric Boolean functions were found by Cai,…

Six years after William Rowan Hamilton's discovery of quaternions, in 1849 James Cockle introduced the algebra of split quaternions. (He called them ``coquaternions.'') In this paper we define regular functions on split quaternions and…

Stanley introduces polynomials which help evaluate symmetric group characters and conjectures that the coefficients of the polynomials are positive. Stanley later gives a conjectured combinatorial interpretation for the coefficients of the…

Newton, in notes that he would rather not have seen published, described a process for solving simultaneous equations that later authors applied specifically to linear equations. This method that Euler did not recommend, that Legendre…

We show that Galois theory of cyclotomic number fields provides a powerful tool to construct systematically integer-valued matrices commuting with the modular matrix S, as well as automorphisms of the fusion rules. Both of these…
