In quantum field theory, physicists routinely use "normal ordering" of operators, which just amounts to shuffling all creation operators to the left. Potentially confusing, then, is the occurrence in the literature of normal-ordered…

We consider the generalised Beta function introduced by Chaudhry {\it et al.\/} [J. Comp. Appl. Math. {\bf 78} (1997) 19--32] defined by \[B(x,y;p)=\int_0^1 t^{x-1} (1-t)^{y-1} \exp \left[\frac{-p}{4t(1-t)}\right]\,dt,\] where $\Re (p)>0$…

A central problem in computational statistics is to convert a procedure for sampling combinatorial from an objects into a procedure for counting those objects, and vice versa. Weconsider sampling problems coming from *Gibbs distributions*,…

We present a new approximation to the normal distribution quantile function. It has a similar form to the approximation of Beasley and Springer [3], providing a maximum absolute error of less than $2.5 \cdot 10^{-5}$. This is less accurate…

In the thirties of the last century, I. M. Vinogradov established uniform distribution modulo 1 of the sequence $p\alpha$ when $\alpha$ is a fixed irrational real number and $p$ runs over the primes. In particular, he showed that the…

For an irrational $\alpha\in(0,1)$, we investigate the Ostrowski sum-of-digits function $\sigma_\alpha$. For $\alpha$ having bounded partial quotients and $\vartheta\in\mathbb R\setminus\mathbb Z$, we prove that the function $g:n\mapsto…

In this paper we explore the theory of fractional powers of non-negative (and not necessarily self-adjoint) operators and its amazing relationship with the Chebyshev polynomials of the second kind to obtain results of existence, regularity…

Asymptotic statistical theory for estimating functions is reviewed in a generality suitable for stochastic processes. Conditions concerning existence of a consistent estimator, uniqueness, rate of convergence, and the asymptotic…

The factorial moments of the standard Poisson distribution are well known. The present note presents an explicit combinatorial sum for the factorial moments of the Poisson distribution of order $k$. Unlike the standard Poisson distribution…

In this paper, we compute the asymptotic average of the decimals of some real numbers. With the help of this computation, we prove that if a real number cannot be represented as a finite decimal and the asymptotic average of its decimals is…

Thanks to Littlewood (1922) and Ingham (1928), we know the first two terms of the asymptotic formula for the square mean integral value of the Riemann zeta function $\zeta$ on the critical line. Later, Atkinson (1939) presented this formula…

Rational best approximations (in a Chebyshev sense) to real functions are characterized by an equioscillating approximation error. Similar results do not hold true for rational best approximations to complex functions in general. In the…

In the first part of the paper we give a definition of G_q-function and we establish a regularity result, obtained as a combination of a q-analogue of the Andre'-Chudnovsky Theorem [And89, VI] and Katz Theorem [Kat70, \S 13]. In the second…

In this article we prove a general theorem which establishes the existence of limiting distributions for a wide class of error terms from prime number theory. As a corollary to our main theorem, we deduce previous results of Wintner (1935),…

In this article we define a class of fractional Orlicz-Sobolev spaces on Carnot groups and, in the spirit of the celebrated results of Bourgain-Brezis-Mironescu and of Maz'ya-Shaposhnikova, we study the asymptotic behavior of the Orlicz…

The main objective of this article is to study the asymptotic behavior of Salie sums over arithmetic progressions. We deduce from our asymptotic formula that Salie sums possess a bias of being positive. The method we use is based on…

We consider a problem posed by Shparlinski, of giving nontrivial bounds for rational exponential sums over the arithmetic function $\tau(n)$, counting the number of divisors of $n$. This is done using some ideas of Sathe concerning the…

Gromov proposed an averaged version of the Dehn function and claimed that in many cases it should be subasymptotic to the Dehn function. Using results on random walks in nilpotent groups, we confirm this claim for most nilpotent groups. In…

Stirling numbers of the first kind are common in number theory and combinatorics; through Ewen's sampling formula, these numbers enter into the calculation of several population genetics statistics, such as Fu's Fs. In previous papers we…

Let $\Phi_k(n)=|\{ (x_1, x_2, \cdots, x_k)\in \left(\mathbb{Z}/n\mathbb{Z}\right)^k; \ \gcd(x_1^2+x_2^2+ \cdots+ x_k^2, n)=1\}|$ be a general totient function introduced first by Cald\'{e}ron et. al. Motivated by the classical works of…
