We consider the asymptotic behavior of the multidimensional Laplace-type integral with a perturbed phase function. Under suitable assumptions, we derive a higher-order asymptotic expansion with an error estimate, generalizing some previous…
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…
We give an overview of basic methods that can be used for obtaining asymptotic expansions of integrals: Watson's lemma, Laplace's method, the saddle point method, and the method of stationary phase. Certain developments in the field of…
Laplace's method is one of the fundamental techniques in the asymptotic approximation of integrals. The coefficients appearing in the resulting asymptotic expansion, arise as the coefficients of a convergent or asymptotic series of a…
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…
Statistical applications often involve the calculation of intractable multidimensional integrals. The Laplace formula is widely used to approximate such integrals. However, in high-dimensional or small sample size problems, the shape of the…
We derive the asymptotic expansion (asymptotics with an arbitrary number of error terms) of k-regular graphs by applying the Laplace method on a recent exact formula from Caizergues and de Panafieu (2023). We also deduce the asymptotic…
A new approach to the problem of finding the asymptotical behaviour of large orders of semiclassical expansion is suggested. Asymptotics of high orders not only for eigenvalues, but also for eigenfunctions, are constructed. Thus, one can…
The matrix analogues of Laplace's method and Watson's lemma are derived via the approach described by Williams and Wong [J. Approx. Theory 24 (4) (1974), 378-384]. Some examples are also given.
Latent variable models for ordinal data represent a useful tool in different fields of research in which the constructs of interest are not directly observable. In such models, problems related to the integration of the likelihood function…
We derive bilateral asymptotic as well as non-asymptotic estimates for the multivariate Laplace integrals. Possible applications: Tauberian theorems for random vectors.
Laplace's method, a family of asymptotic methods used to approximate integrals, is presented as a potential candidate for the tool box of techniques used for knowledge acquisition and probabilistic inference in belief networks with…
The purpose of this article is to describe the singularities of one-dimensional oscillatory integrals, whose phases have a certain singularity, in the form of an asymptotic expansion. In the case of the Laplace integral, an analogous result…
We propose a new asymptotic expansion for the fractional $p$-Laplacian with precise computations of the errors. Our approximation is shown to hold in the whole range $p\in(1,\infty)$ and $s\in(0,1)$, with errors that do not degenerate as…
We develop a Laplace's method to compute the asymptotic expansions of sums of sharply peaked sequences. These series arise as discretizations (Riemann sums) of sharply-peaked integrals, whose asymptotic behavior can be computed by the…
Laguerre and Laguerre-type polynomials are orthogonal polynomials on the interval $[0,\infty)$ with respect to a weight function of the form $w(x) = x^{\alpha} e^{-Q(x)}, Q(x) = \sum_{k=0}^m q_k x^k, \alpha > -1, q_m > 0$. The classical…
Laplace approximations are commonly used to approximate high-dimensional integrals in statistical applications, but the quality of such approximations as the dimension of the integral grows is not well understood. In this paper, we prove a…
In this paper, we present a high-order expansion for elliptic equations in high-contrast media. The background conductivity is taken to be one and we assume the medium contains high (or low) conductivity inclusions. We derive an asymptotic…
By application of the theory for second-order linear differential equations with two turning points developed in [Olver F.W.J., Philos. Trans. Roy. Soc. London Ser. A 278 (1975), 137-174], uniform asymptotic approximations are obtained in…
In this paper, we reconsider the large-argument asymptotic expansions of the Hankel, Bessel and modified Bessel functions and their derivatives. New integral representations for the remainder terms of these asymptotic expansions are found…
