Some results for the q-Bernoulli and q-Euler polynomials

We show some results for the q-Bernoulli and q-Euler polynomials. The formulas in series of the Carlitz's q-Stirling numbers of the second kind are also considered. The q-analogues of well-known formulas are derived from these results.     

A 2-adic formula for Bernoulli numbers of the second kind and for the Nörlund numbers

We give a formula expressing Bernoulli numbers of the second kind as 2-adically convergent sums of traces of algebraic integers. We use this formula to prove and explain the formulas and conjectures of Adelberg concerning the initial 2-adic digits of these numbers. We also give analogous results for the Nörlund numbers.     

Measures of inconsistency and defaults

We introduce a method for measuring inconsistency based on the number of formulas needed for deriving a contradiction. The relationships to previously considered methods based on probability measures are discussed. Those methods are extended to conditional probability and default reasoning.     

Two new q-exponential operator identities and their applications

In this paper, we use the q-Chu–Vandermonde formula to prove two new operator identities, which are the extensions of Liu's results. These two q-exponential operator identities are used to derive some q-summation formulas and q-integrals.     

Schur Q-polynomials, multiple hypergeometric series and enumeration of marked shifted tableaux

We study Schur Q-polynomials evaluated on a geometric progression, or equivalently q-enumeration of marked shifted tableaux, seeking explicit formulas that remain regular at q=1. We obtain several such expressions as multiple basic hypergeometric series, and as determinants and pfaffians of continuous q-ultraspherical or continuous q-Jacobi polynomials. As special cases, we obtain simple closed formulas for staircase-type partitions.     

Series transformations and integrals involving the Riemann Ξ-function

The transformation formulas of Ramanujan, Hardy, Koshliakov and Ferrar are unified, in the sense that all these formulas come from the same source, namely, a general formula involving an integral of Riemann's Ξ-function. We give proofs of all of these transformation formulas using the theory of Mellin transforms and the residue theorem. Our study includes new extensions of the formulas of Koshliakov and Ferrar through their connection with integrals involving the Riemann Ξ-function.     

First order theory for literal‐paraconsistent and literal‐paracomplete matrices

In this paper a first order theory for the logics defined through literal paraconsistent‐paracomplete matrices is developed. These logics are intended to model situations in which the ground level information may be contradictory or incomplete, but it is treated within a classical framework. This means that literal formulas, i.e. atomic formulas and their iterated negations, may behave poorly specially regarding their negations, but more complex formulas, i.e. formulas that include a binary connective are well behaved. This situation may and does appear for instance in data bases (© 2010 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)     

Classes of series identities and associated hypergeometric reduction formulas

The main object of the present paper is to investigate some classes of series identities and their applications and consequences leading naturally to several (known or new) hypergeometric reduction formulas. We also indicate how some of these series identities and reduction formulas would yield several series identities which emerged recently in the context of fractional calculus (that is, calculus of integrals and derivatives of any arbitrary real or complex order).     

Eigenvectors of the Baxter-Bazhanov-Stroganov τ<Superscript>(2)</Superscript>(<Emphasis Type="Italic">t</Emphasis><Subscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">q</Emphasis></Subscript>) model with fixed-spin boundary conditions

We give explicit formulas for the eigenvectors of the transfer matrix of the Baxter-Bazhanov-Stroganov (BBS) model (N-state spin model) with fixed-spin boundary conditions. We obtain these formulas from the formulas for the eigenvectors of the periodic BBS model by a limit procedure. The latter formulas were derived in the framework of Sklyanin’s method of separation of variables. In the case of fixed-spin boundaries, we solve the corresponding T-Q Baxter equations for the functions of separated variables explicitly. As a particular case, we obtain the eigenvectors of the Hamiltonian of the Ising-like ℤ_N quantum chain model. __________ Translated from Teoreticheskaya i Matematicheskaya Fizika, Vol. 155, No. 1, pp. 94–108, April, 2008.     

Generalized Q-functions and Dirichlet-to-Neumann maps for elliptic differential operators

The classical concept of Q-functions associated to symmetric and selfadjoint operators due to M.G. Krein and H. Langer is extended in such a way that the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map in the theory of elliptic differential equations can be interpreted as a generalized Q-function. For couplings of uniformly elliptic second order differential expression on bounded and unbounded domains explicit Krein type formulas for the difference of the resolvents and trace formulas in an H²-framework are obtained.     

Sub-Riemannian calculus on hypersurfaces in Carnot groups

We develop a sub-Riemannian calculus for hypersurfaces in graded nilpotent Lie groups. We introduce an appropriate geometric framework, such as horizontal Levi-Civita connection, second fundamental form, and horizontal Laplace-Beltrami operator. We analyze the relevant minimal surfaces and prove some basic integration by parts formulas. Using the latter we establish general first and second variation formulas for the horizontal perimeter in the Heisenberg group. Such formulas play a fundamental role in the sub-Riemannian Bernstein problem.     

Two chain rules for divided differences and Faà di Bruno's formula

In this paper we derive two formulas for divided differences of a function of a function. Both formulas lead to other divided difference formulas, such as reciprocal and quotient rules. The two formulas can also be used to derive Faà di Bruno's formula and other formulas for higher derivatives of composite functions. We also derive a divided difference version of Faà di Bruno's determinant formula.

     

On asymptotics of the q-exponential and q-gamma functions

In this work we present a derivation for the complete asymptotic expansions of Euler?s q-exponential function and Jackson?s q-gamma function via Mellin transform. These formulas are valid everywhere, uniformly on any compact subset of the complex plane.     

On the weak control of slowly damped systems : PMM vol. 42, no. 6, 1978. pp. 1000–1005

Asymptotic formulas are obtained which make it possible to derive the first approximation solution of the Riccati matrix algebraic equation of special form. Method is based on Bass' formulas [1] and the theory of perturbations [2], The problem of control of a slowly damped oscillator is investigated in detail. Formulation of the problem in this paper differs substantially from that in [3] (no assumption is made about single-frequency oscillations, and only a stationary system is considered over an infinite time interval).     

A family of q-Dyson style constant term identities

By generalizing Gessel-Xin's Laurent series method for proving the Zeilberger-Bressoud q-Dyson Theorem, we establish a family of q-Dyson style constant term identities. These identities give explicit formulas for certain coefficients of the q-Dyson product, including three conjectures of Sills' as special cases and generalizing Stembridge's first layer formulas for characters of SL(n,C).     

On numerical realization of the function of the hereditary operator : PMM vol. 42, no. 6, 1978, pp. 1115–1122

The problem of numerical realization of a function of the hereditary operator acting on some function of time is considered. Laplace transformations are used for the operators with kernels of the Rabotnov and Rzhanitsyn type to obtain formulas which reduce the problem in question to that of computing a quadrature. When the variable assumes large values, the formulas become asymptotic equations with an estimable error of approximation.     

Exact waiting time and queue size distributions for equilibrium <Emphasis Type="Italic">M</Emphasis>/<Emphasis Type="Italic">G</Emphasis>/1 queues with Pareto service

This paper solves the problem of finding exact formulas for the waiting time cdf and queue length distribution of first-in-first-out M/G/1 queues in equilibrium with Pareto service. The formulas derived are new and are obtained by directly inverting the relevant Pollaczek-Khinchin formula and involve single integrals of non-oscillating real valued functions along the positive real line. Tables of waiting time and queue length probabilities are provided for certain parameter values under heavy traffic conditions.      

Well-posed reduction formulas for the <Emphasis Type="Italic">q</Emphasis>-Kampé-de-Fériet function

By using the limiting case of Watson’s q-Whipple transformation as n → ∞, we investigate the transformations of the nonterminating q-Kampé-de-Fériet series. Further, new formulas for the transformations and well-posed reduction formulas are established for the basic Clausen hypergeometric series. Several remarkable formulas are also found for new function classes beyond the q-Kampé-de-Fériet function.     

Two operator identities and their applications to terminating basic hypergeometric series and q-integrals

In this paper, we first give two interesting operator identities, and then, using them and the q-exponential operator technique to some terminating summation formulas of basic hypergeometric series and q-integrals, we obtain some q-series identities and q-integrals involving ₃?₂.     

Hypercircle inequalities and sampling theory

In this article the well-known hypercircle inequality is extended to the Riesz bases setting. A natural application for this new inequality is given by the estimation of the truncation error in nonorthogonal sampling formulas. Examples including the estimation of the truncation error for wavelet sampling expansions or for nonorthogonal sampling formulas in Paley–Wiener spaces are exhibited.
