The Jacobi expansionis well known and easily obtained from the generating function of the Besselcoefficients. The sum of the series on the right of equation (1) when sin (n+½)x is replaced by cos (n+½)x cannot be found in this way but it can be expressed in terms of a definite integral as shown below. The result so obtained is useful in reducing certain triple cosine series to dual series and so simplifying the solution given by one of us for such series in an earlier paper [1].

Let Z(t) ··· (Z1(t), …, Zk (t)) be an indecomposable critical k-type age-dependent branching process with generating function F(s, t). Denote the right and left eigenvalues of the mean matrix M by u and v respectively and suppose μ is the vector of mean lifetimes, i.e. Mu = u, vM = v.It is shown that, under second moment assumptions, uniformly for s ∈ ([0, 1]k of the form s = 1 – cu, c a constant. Here vμ is the componentwise product of the vectors and Q[u] is a constant.This result is then used to give a new proof of the exponential limit law.

Thinning Rate

The action of water and the electron beam on organic specimens in the electron microscope results in the removal of oxidizable material (primarily hydrogen and carbon) by reactions similar to the water gas reaction .which has the form:The energy required to force the reaction to the right is supplied by the interaction of the electron beam with the specimen.The mass of water striking the specimen is given by:where u = gH2O/cm2 sec, PH2O = partial pressure of water in Torr, & T = absolute temperature of the gas phase. If it is assumed that mass is removed from the specimen by a reaction approximated by (1) and that the specimen is uniformly thinned by the reaction, then the thinning rate in A/ min iswhere x = thickness of the specimen in A, t = time in minutes, & E = efficiency (the fraction of the water striking the specimen which reacts with it).

The Given

(1) This is a subject to which very little study has been directed. The first to enunciate any proposition regarding it was Jacobi; but the solitary result which he reached received no attention from mathematicians,—certainly no fruitful attention,—during seventy years following the publication of it.Jacobi was concerned with a problem regarding the partition of a fraction with composite denominator (u1 − t1) (u2 − t2) … into other fractions whose denominators are factors of the original, where u1, u2, … are linear homogeneous functions of one and the same set of variables. The specific character of the partition was only definable by viewing the given fraction (u1−t1)−1 (u2−t2)−1…as expanded in series form, it being required that each partial fraction should be the aggregate of a certain set of terms in this series. Of course the question of the order of the terms in each factor of the original denominator had to be attended to at the outset, since the expansion for (a1x+b1y+c1z−t)−1 is not the same as for (b1y+c1z+a1x−t)−1. Now one general proposition to which Jacobi was led in the course of this investigation was that the coefficient ofx1−1x2−1x3−1…in the expansion ofy1−1u2−1u3−1…, whereis |a1b2c3…|−1, provided that in energy case the first term of uris that containing xr.

The purpose of the present paper is to give a new, simple proof of the theorem of M. Davis, H. Putnam and J. Robinson [1961], which states that every recursively enumerable relation A(a1, …, an) is exponential diophantine, i.e. can be represented in the formwhere a1 …, an, x1, …, xm range over natural numbers and R and S are functions built up from these variables and natural number constants by the operations of addition, A + B, multiplication, AB, and exponentiation, AB. We refer to the variables a1,…,an as parameters and the variables x1 …, xm as unknowns.Historically, the Davis, Putnam and Robinson theorem was one of the important steps in the eventual solution of Hilbert's tenth problem by the second author [1970], who proved that the exponential relation, a = bc, is diophantine, and hence that the right side of (1) can be replaced by a polynomial equation. But this part will not be reproved here. Readers wishing to read about the proof of that are directed to the papers of Y. Matijasevič [1971a], M. Davis [1973], Y. Matijasevič and J. Robinson [1975] or C. Smoryński [1972]. We concern ourselves here for the most part only with exponential diophantine equations until §5 where we mention a few consequences for the class NP of sets computable in nondeterministic polynomial time.

Two Sides

The pupa is bilaterally symmetrical, that is, setae occur in similar situations on each side of the body, so that it will suffice to describe the arrangement on one side only. The setae on the two sides of the same pupa, however, often vary as regards their sub-divisions, and similar variations occur between different individuals; as an example, in Table I are shown some of the variations that were found in ten pupae taken at random. An examination of a larger number would have revealed a wider range. As a rule, a seta which is sometimes single, sometimes divided, is longer when single. For example, in one pupa the seta at the posterior angle ofthe seventh segment was single on the right side, double on the left; the former measuring 266μ, and the latter only 159μ in length. This fact is not specifically mentioned in the descriptions which follow, but should be understood.

With a holomorphic function f(z) defined in a domain H which includes the closed interval [—1, 1] we associate the Neumann series1where Pn(z), Qn(t) are, respectively, the nth Legendre polynomials of the first and second kind and γ is a closed and rectifiable Jordan curve which includes [— 1, 1] in its interior and is included, together with its interior, in H.

In a paper with the above title, T. M. Apostol and S. Chowla [1] proved the following result:Theorem 1.For relatively prime integers h and k, l ≤ h ≤ k, the seriesdoes not admit of an Euler product decomposition, that is, an identity of the form1except when h = k = l; fc = 1, fc = 2. The series on the right is extended over all primes p and is assumed to be absolutely convergent forR(s)>1.

Let {ξ; t = 1, 2, …} be a stationary normal sequence with zero means, unit variances, and covariances let be independent and standard normal, and write . In this paper we find bounds on which are roughly of the order where ρ is the maximal correlation, ρ =sup {0, r 1 , r 2, …}. It is further shown that, at least for m-dependent sequences, the bounds are of the right order and, in a simple example, the errors are evaluated numerically. Bounds of the same order on the rate of convergence of the point processes of exceedances of one or several levels are obtained using a ‘representation' approach (which seems to be of rather wide applicability). As corollaries we obtain rates of convergence of several functionals of the point processes, including the joint distribution function of the k largest values amongst ξ1, …, ξn.
