The purpose of this paper is to compute asymptotically Hankel determinants for weights that are supported in a semi-infinite interval.The main idea is to reduce the problem to determinants of other operators whose determinant asymptotics…

We define an infinite sequence of generalizations, parametrized by an integer $m \ge 1$, of the Stieltjes--Rogers and Thron--Rogers polynomials; they arise as the power-series expansions of some branched continued fractions, and as the…

The Euler numbers occur in the Taylor expansion of $\tan(x)+\sec(x)$. Since Stieltjes, continued fractions and Hankel determinants of the even Euler numbers, on the one hand, of the odd Euler numbers, on the other hand, have been widely…

Gessel walks are lattice paths confined to the quarter plane that start at the origin and consist of unit steps going either West, East, South-West or North-East. In 2001, Ira Gessel conjectured a nice closed-form expression for the number…

Let $H\_0, ..., H\_n$ be $m \times m$ matrices with entries in $\QQ$ and Hankel structure, i.e. constant skew diagonals. We consider the linear Hankel matrix $H(\vecx)=H\_0+\X\_1H\_1+...+\X\_nH\_n$ and the problem of computing sample points…

In this paper we prove Garvan's conjectured formula for the square of the modular discriminant $\Delta$ as a 3 by 3 Hankel determinant of classical Eisenstein series $E_{2n}$. We then obtain similar formulas involving minors of Hankel…

The Hankel determinant $H_{2,1}(F_{f}/2)$ is defined as: \begin{align*} H_{2,1}(F_{f}/2):= \begin{vmatrix} \gamma_1 & \gamma_2 \gamma_2 & \gamma_3 \end{vmatrix}, \end{align*} where $\gamma_1, \gamma_2,$ and $\gamma_3$ are the first, second…

As argued by Hone in the paper [Commun. Pure Appl. Math., 74(11):2310--2347, 2021], a ``mismatch" problem remained unsolved while he was investigating continued fraction expansions and Hankel determinants from hyperelliptic curves. In this…

In the past decade, a lot of attention has been devoted to the enumera-tion of walks with prescribed steps confined to a convex cone. In two dimensions, this means counting walks in the first quadrant of the plane (possibly after a linear…

In this paper, we study Hankel determinants generated from a perturbed Laguerre weight function, Under the double scaling scheme, we give the uniform asymptotic approximations of Hankel determinants in terms of a solution of a third-order…

Fix $n$ a positive integer. Take the $n$-th metallic number $\phi_n=\frac{n+\sqrt{n^2+4}}{2}$ (e.g. $\phi_1$ is the golden number) and let $\Phi_n(q)$ be its $q$-deformation in the sense of S. Morier-Genoud and V. Ovsienko. This is an…

In this note, we briefly introduce the background and motivation of the collaborative work [arXiv:2508.20797], and provide an outline of the main results. The latter relates to matrix and higher order scalar differential equations satisfied…

The Hankel determinant $H_{2,2}(F_{f}/2)$ is defined as: \begin{align*} H_{2,2}(F_{f}/2):= \begin{vmatrix} \gamma_2 & \gamma_3 \gamma_3 & \gamma_4 \end{vmatrix}, \end{align*} where $\gamma_2, \gamma_3,$ and $\gamma_4$ are the second, third,…

E. Heine in the 19th century studied a system of orthogonal polynomials associated with the weight $\left[x(x-\alpha)(x-\beta)\right]^{-\frac{1}{2}}$, $x\in[0,\alpha]$, $0<\alpha<\beta$. A related system was studied by C. J. Rees in 1945,…

We study the Hankel determinant for the weight $x^{\alpha}{\rm exp}(-x-t_1/x-t_2/x^2), x\in[0,+\infty)$, with $\alpha>-1,~t_1\in\mathbb{R}\setminus\{0\}, ~t_2>0.$ Compared with the weight $x^{\alpha}{\rm e}^{-x-t_1/x}$ studied in prior work…

Let S be a subset of {-1,0,1}^2 not containing (0,0). We address the enumeration of plane lattice walks with steps in S, that start from (0,0) and always remain in the first quadrant. A priori, there are 2^8 problems of this type, but some…

For $\ell \geq 1$ and $k \geq 2$, we consider certain admissible sequences of $k-1$ lattice paths in a colored $\ell \times \ell$ square. We show that the number of such admissible sequences of lattice paths is given by the sum of squares…

In this paper, we consider the Hankel determinants associated with the singularly perturbed Laguerre weight $w(x)=x^\alpha e^{-x-t/x}$, $x\in (0, \infty)$, $t>0$ and $\alpha>0$. When the matrix size $n\to\infty$, we obtain an asymptotic…

We calculate the Hankel determinants of sequences of Bernoulli polynomials. This corresponding Hankel matrix comes from statistically estimating the variance in nonparametric regression. Besides its entries' natural and deep connection with…

We introduce the generic Lah polynomials $L_{n,k}(\phi)$, which enumerate unordered forests of increasing ordered trees with a weight $\phi_i$ for each vertex with $i$ children. We show that, if the weight sequence $\phi$ is…
