Truncation error bounds for modified continued fractions with applications to special functions

Much recent work has been done to investigate convergence of modified continued fractions (MCF's), following the proof by Thron and Waadeland [35] in 1980 that a limit-periodic MCFK(a _n , 1;x ₁), with andnth approximant

Uniformly convergent difference schemes for singularly perturbed parabolic diffusion-convection problems without turning points

We consider first the initial-boundary value problem for the parabolic equation

Solutions rationnelles de certaines équations fonctionnelles

Dans cet article, nous démontrons essentiellement les deux résultats suivants, qui montrent que les solutions séries formelles à coefficients dans de certaines équations fonctionnelles sont rationnelles. Soient tout d'abords un entier naturel non nul, eta _i ,b _i ,(i = 1, , s), 2s nombres complexes, lesa _i étant non nuls. On définit l'ensembleA comme étant l'intersection des parties de , contenant l'origine et stables par toutes les applicationsg _i (x) = a _i x + b _i . On a alors le résultat suivant: Théorème 1.Soient f, R ₁, ,R _s s + 1 fractions rationnelles de (x), régulières à l'origine, et a_i, b_i (i = 1,, s), 2s éléments de . On suppose que les a_i sont non nuls et de module strictement inférieur à un pour tout i = 1,, s. Soit y(x) un élément de [[x]], vérifiant l'équation fonctionnelle

A fourth order method for a singular two-point boundary value problem

Recently, Chawla et al. described a second order finite difference method for the class of singular two-point boundary value problems:

The many limits of mixed means

The sequences introduced by Carlson (1971) are variants of the Gauss arithmetic geometric sequences (which have been elegantly discussed by D. A. Cox (1984, 1985)). Given (complex)a ₀,b ₀ we define

Convolution quadrature and discretized operational calculus. I

Numerical methods are derived for problems in integral equations (Volterra, Wiener-Hopf equations) and numerical integration (singular integrands, multiple time-scale convolution). The basic tool of this theory is the numerical approximation of convolution integrals

Interpolatory properties of best rationalL 1-approximations

In this paper the distribution of the zeros of the error function for bestL ₁-approximation by rational functions fromR _n,m is considered. It is shown that the maximal distance between such zeros isO(1/(n–m)), ifn > m.Communicated by Edward B. Saff.     

A proof of Freud's conjecture for exponential weights

LetW (x) be a function nonnegative inR, positive on a set of positive measure, and such that all power moments ofW ²(x) are finite. Let {p _n (W ²;x)} ₀ denote the sequence of orthonormal polynomials with respect to the weightW ²(x), and let {A _n } ₁ and {B _n } ₁ denote the coefficients in the recurrence relation

Purification and partial characterization of two lectin isoforms fromCratylia mollis mart. (camaratu bean)

Two additional electrophoretically distinct molecular forms, isoforms (iso) 2 and 3, with lectin properties were isolated fromCratylia mollis Mart, seeds (FABACEAE), by extraction with 0.15M NaCl and ammonium sulfate fractionation, followed by chromatography on Sephadex G-75 and Bio-Gel P-200 (iso 2), as well as CM-Cellulose and Sephadex G-75 (iso 3). Both isoforms were human group nonspecific and showed distinct specificity. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis resolved iso 2 and 3 in polypeptides of apparent mol wts 60 and 31 kDa, respectively; a distinct isoelectric focusing pattern was obtained for iso 2 and 3, under denaturing and reducing conditions.
