Consider a sequence X = (Xn: n ≥ 1) of independent and identically distributed random variables, and an independent geometrically distributed random variable M with parameter p. The random variable SM = X1 + ∙ ∙ ∙ + XM is called a geometric sum. In this paper we obtain asymptotic expansions for the distribution of SM as p ↘ 0. If EX1 > 0, the asymptotic expansion is developed in powers of p and it provides higher-order correction terms to Renyi's theorem, which states that P(pSM > x) ≈ exp(-x/EX1). Conversely, if EX1 = 0 then the expansion is given in powers of √p. We apply the results to obtain corrected diffusion approximations for the M/G/1 queue. These expansions follow in a unified way as a consequence of new uniform renewal theory results that are also developed in this paper.

There has been a growing interest in higher-order spatial discretization methods due to their potential for delivering high accuracy at reasonable computational overhead for the Direct Numerical Simulation (DNS) of vortex-dominated flows. Many of the existing high-order schemes for unstructured grids use more degrees-of-freedom (DOF) in each cell to achieve high-order accuracy. This paper formulates and demonstrates a high-order correction method for unstructured grids. Using this approach, there is no increase in DOF within each cell. By adding higher order correction terms, higher order accuracy can be achieved. The present technique is innovative in that it can be readily added to existing lower order solvers, it can achieve very high-order accuracy, it is stable, and it can make use of either central or upwind schemes. Many examples are presented and used to demonstrate the high-order accuracy.
