We study the Lambert series [Formula: see text], for all [Formula: see text]. We obtain the complete asymptotic expansion of [Formula: see text] near [Formula: see text]. Our analysis of the Lambert series yields the asymptotic forms for several related [Formula: see text]-series: the [Formula: see text]-gamma and [Formula: see text]-polygamma functions, the [Formula: see text]-Pochhammer symbol and the Jacobi theta functions. Some typical results include [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], with relative errors of order [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] respectively.

Horner’s traditional method of processing well test data can be improved by a special transformation of the pressure curves, which reduces the time the converted curves reach the asymptotic regimes necessary for processing these data. In this case, to take into account the action of the «skin factor» and the effect of the wellbore, it is necessary to use a more complete asymptotic expansion of the exact solution of the conductivity equation at large values of time. At the same time, this method does not allow to completely eliminate the influence of the wellbore, since the used asymptotic expansion of the solution for small values of time is limited by the existence of a singular point, in the vicinity of which the asymptotic expansion ceases to be valid. To solve this problem, a new method of processing well test data is proposed, which allows completely eliminating the influence of the wellbore. The method is based on the introduction of a modified inflow function to the well, which includes a component of the boundary condition corresponding to the influence of the wellbore.

We derive inequalities and a complete asymptotic expansion for the Landau constants Gn, as n → ∞ using the asymptotic sequence n!/(n + k)!. We also introduce a q-analogue of the Landau constants and calculate their large degree asymptotics. In the process, we also establish q-analogues of identities due to Ramanujan and Bailey.

We consider the scattering problem for the nonlinear Klein–Gordon Equation with long range nonlinearity in one dimension. We prove that for all prescribed asymptotic solutions there is a solution of the equation with such behavior, for some choice of initial data. In the case the nonlinearity has the good sign (repulsive) the result hold for arbitrary size asymptotic data. The method of proof is based on reducing the long range phase effects to an ODE; this is done via an appropriate ansatz. We also find the complete asymptotic expansion of the solutions.


Berry & Howls (1991) (hereinafter called BH) refined the method of steepest descent to study exponentially accurate asymptotics of a general class of integrals involving exp {– kf ( z )} along doubly infinite contours in the complex plane passing over saddlepoints of f ( z ). Here we derive analogous results for integrals with integrands of a similar form, but whose local expansions in powers of 1/ k are made about the finite endpoints of semi-infinite contours of integration. We treat endpoints where f ( z ) behaves locally linearly or quadratically. Generically, local endpoint expansions made by the method of steepest descent diverge because of the presence of saddles of f ( z ). We derive ‘resurgence relations’ which express the original integral exactly as a truncated endpoint expansion plus a remainder, involving the global saddle structure of f ( z ) via integrals through certain ‘adjacent’ saddles. The saddles adjacent to the endpoint are determined by a topological rule. If the least term of the endpoint expansion is the N 0 ( k ) th, summing to here calculates the endpoint integral up to an error of approximately exp ( – N 0 ( k )). We develop a scheme, involving iteration of the new resurgence relations with a similar one derived in BH, which can reduce this error down to exp( – 2.386 N 0 ( k )). This ‘hyperasymptotic’ formalism parallels that of BH and incorporates automatically any change in the complete asymptotic expansion as the endpoint moves in the complex plane, provided that it does not coincide with other saddles. We illustrate the analytical and numerical use of endpoint hyperasymptotics by application to the complementary error function erfc( x ) and a constructed ‘incomplete’ Airy function.

In this paper, we reconsider the large- a asymptotic expansion of the Hurwitz zeta function ζ ( s , a ). New representations for the remainder term of the asymptotic expansion are found and used to obtain sharp and realistic error bounds. Applications to the asymptotic expansions of the polygamma functions, the gamma function, the Barnes G -function and the s -derivative of the Hurwitz zeta function ζ ( s , a ) are provided. A detailed discussion on the sharpness of our error bounds is also given.
