Asymptotic distribution of odd balanced unimodal sequences with rank congruent to a modulo c

Kim et al. (Proc Am Math Soc 144:687–3700, 2016) introduced the notion of odd-balance unimodal sequences in 2016. Like was shown by Bryson et al. (Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 109:16063–16067, 2012) for the generating function of strongly unimodal sequences, the generating function for odd-balanced unimodal sequences also has quantum modular behavior. Odd-balanced unimodal sequences thus appear to be a fundamental piece in the world of modular forms and combinatorics, and understanding their asymptotic properties is important for understanding their place in this puzzle. In light of this, we compute an asymptotic estimate for odd balanced unimodal sequences for ranks congruent to $$a \pmod {c}$$ a ( mod c ) for $$c\ne 2$$ c ≠ 2 or a multiple of 4. We find the interesting result that the odd balanced unimodal sequences are asymptotically related to the overpartition function. This is in contrast to strongly unimodal sequences which, are asymptotically related to the partition function. Our proofs of the main theorems rely on the representation of the generating function in question as a mixed mock modular form.

On the number of semismooth integers

Let [Formula: see text] be a fixed positive number. Define [Formula: see text] as the number of positive integers [Formula: see text] having no prime factors [Formula: see text], and define [Formula: see text] as the number of positive integers [Formula: see text] having [Formula: see text] prime factors [Formula: see text], with all the other prime factors [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we give an asymptotic estimate for the ratio [Formula: see text], provided that [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], and [Formula: see text] as [Formula: see text]. Also, combining this estimate with conventional ones for [Formula: see text], we provide sharp estimates for [Formula: see text].

On the Stochastic Magnus Expansion and Its Application to SPDEs

We derive the stochastic version of the Magnus expansion for linear systems of stochastic differential equations (SDEs). The main novelty with respect to the related literature is that we consider SDEs in the Itô sense, with progressively measurable coefficients, for which an explicit Itô-Stratonovich conversion is not available. We prove convergence of the Magnus expansion up to a stopping time $$\tau $$ τ and provide a novel asymptotic estimate of the cumulative distribution function of $$\tau $$ τ . As an application, we propose a new method for the numerical solution of stochastic partial differential equations (SPDEs) based on spatial discretization and application of the stochastic Magnus expansion. A notable feature of the method is that it is fully parallelizable. We also present numerical tests in order to asses the accuracy of the numerical schemes.

On sums of coefficients of polynomials related to the Borwein conjectures

Recently, Li (Int J Number Theory, 2020) obtained an asymptotic formula for a certain partial sum involving coefficients for the polynomial in the First Borwein conjecture. As a consequence, he showed the positivity of this sum. His result was based on a sieving principle discovered by himself and Wan (Sci China Math, 2010). In fact, Li points out in his paper that his method can be generalized to prove an asymptotic formula for a general partial sum involving coefficients for any prime $$p>3$$ p > 3 . In this work, we extend Li’s method to obtain asymptotic formula for several partial sums of coefficients of a very general polynomial. We find that in the special cases $$p=3, 5$$ p = 3 , 5 , the signs of these sums are consistent with the three famous Borwein conjectures. Similar sums have been studied earlier by Zaharescu (Ramanujan J, 2006) using a completely different method. We also improve on the error terms in the asymptotic formula for Li and Zaharescu. Using a recent result of Borwein (JNT 1993), we also obtain an asymptotic estimate for the maximum of the absolute value of these coefficients for primes $$p=2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13$$ p = 2 , 3 , 5 , 7 , 11 , 13 and for $$p>15$$ p > 15 , we obtain a lower bound on the maximum absolute value of these coefficients for sufficiently large n.

On approximation of Bernstein-Durrmeyer-type operators in movable interval

In the present paper, we introduce a new type of Bernstein-Durrmeyer operators preserving linear functions in movable interval. The approximation rate of the new operators for continuous functions and Voronovskaja?s asymptotic estimate are obtained.

On the Number of Quadratic Twists with a Rational Point of Almost Minimal Height

We investigate the number of curves having a rational point of almost minimal height in the family of quadratic twists of a given elliptic curve. This problem takes its origin in the work of Hooley, who asked this question in the setting of real quadratic fields. In particular, he showed an asymptotic estimate for the number of such fields with almost minimal fundamental unit. Our main result establishes the analogue asymptotic formula in the setting of quadratic twists of a fixed elliptic curve.

Approximation by a generalization of Szasz-Mirakjan type operators

In the present paper we propose a new generalization of Sz\'{a}sz-Mirakjan-type operators. We discuss their weighted convergence and rate of convergence via weighted modulus of continuity. We also give an asymptotic estimate through Voronovskaja type result for these operators.

Coalescence Phenomenon of Quantum Cohomology of Grassmannians and the Distribution of Prime Numbers

The occurrence and frequency of a phenomenon of resonance (namely the coalescence of some Dubrovin canonical coordinates) in the locus of small quantum cohomology of complex Grassmannians are studied. It is shown that surprisingly this frequency is strictly subordinate and highly influenced by the distribution of prime numbers. Two equivalent formulations of the Riemann hypothesis are given in terms of numbers of complex Grassmannians without coalescence: the former as a constraint on the disposition of singularities of the analytic continuation of the Dirichlet series associated to the sequence counting non-coalescing Grassmannians, and the latter as asymptotic estimate (whose error term cannot be improved) for their distribution function.
