Mellin–Barnes integrals and the method of brackets

The method of brackets is a method for the evaluation of definite integrals based on a small number of rules. This is employed here for the evaluation of Mellin–Barnes integral. The fundamental idea is to transform these integral representations into a bracket series to obtain their values. The expansion of the gamma function in such a series constitute the main part of this new application. The power and flexibility of this procedure is illustrated with a variety of examples.

Effects of COVID-19 on Variations of Taxpayers in Tourism-Reliant Regions: The Case of the Mexican Caribbean

Given the tourism industry’s risk and vulnerability to pandemics and the need to better understand the impacts on tourism destinations, this research assesses the effect of the COVID-19 outbreak on the variation of taxpayer units in the Mexican Caribbean region, which includes some of the major sun-and-sand beach destinations in Latin America. Using monthly data of registered taxpayer entities at the state and national levels as the analysis variable, probability distributions and definite integrals are employed to determine variations of the year following the lockdown, compared with previous years’ data. Results indicate that despite the government’s measures to restrict businesses’ operations and a reduction in tourism activities, registered taxpayers at the regional level did not decrease for most of 2020. Further, as business activities and tourism recovered, taxpayer units increased at the end of 2020 and beginning of 2021. Surprisingly, such a pattern was not observed at the national level, which yielded no statistically significant variations. A discussion of factors influencing the resilience of the tourism region in the study (e.g., outbound markets’ geographic proximity, absence of travel restrictions, closure of competing destinations) and implications for public finances are presented.

Some BBP-type series for polylog integrals

An investigation into a family of definite integrals containing log-polylog functions will be undertaken in this paper. It will be shown that Euler sums play an important part in the solution of these integrals and may be represented as a BBP-type formula. In a special case we prove that the corresponding log integral can be represented as a linear combination of the product of zeta functions and the Dirichlet beta function.

On Weighted Simpson’s 38 Rule

Numerical approximations of definite integrals and related error estimations can be made using Simpson’s rules (inequalities). There are two well-known rules: Simpson’s 13 rule or Simpson’s quadrature formula and Simpson’s 38 rule or Simpson’s second formula. The aim of the present paper is to extend several inequalities that hold for Simpson’s 13 rule to Simpson’s 38 rule. More precisely, we prove a weighted version of Simpson’s second type inequality and some Simpson’s second type inequalities for Lipschitzian, bounded variations, convex functions and the functions that belong to Lq. Some applications of the second type Simpson’s inequalities relate to approximations of special means and Simpson’s 38 formula, and moments of random variables are made.

Novel Symmetric Numerical Methods for Solving Symmetric Mathematical Problems

The mathematical model for many problems is arising in different industries of natural science, basically formulated using differential, integral and integro-differential equations. The investigation of these equations is conducted with the help of numerical integration theory. It is commonly known that a class of problems can be solved by applying numerical integration. The construction of the quadrature formula has a direct relation with the computation of definite integrals. The theory of definite integrals is used in geometry, physics, mechanics and in other related subjects of science. In this work, the existence and uniqueness of the solution of above-mentioned equations are investigated. By this way, the domain has been defined in which the solution of these problems is equivalent. All proposed four problems can be solved using one and the same methods. We define some domains in which the solution of one of these problems is also the solution of the other problems. Some stable methods with the degree p<=8 are constructed to solve some problems, and obtained results are compared with other known methods. In addition, symmetric methods are constructed for comparing them with other well-known methods in some symmetric and asymmetric mathematical problems. Some of our constructed methods are compared with Gauss methods. In addition, symmetric methods are constructed for comparing them with other well-known methods in some symmetric and asymmetric mathematical problems. Some of our constructed methods are compared with Gauss methods. On the intersection of multistep and hybrid methods have been constructed multistep methods and have been proved that these methods are more exact than others. And also has been shown that, hybrid methods constructed here are more exact than Gauss methods. Noted that constructed here hybrid methods preserves the properties of the Gauss method.

A Note on a Fourier Sine Transform

This is a compilation of definite integrals of the product of the hyperbolic cosecant function and polynomial raised to a general power. In this work, we used our contour integral method to derive a Fourier sine transform in terms of the Lerch function. Almost all Lerch functions have an asymmetrical zero-distribution. A summary table of the results are produced for easy reading. A vast majority of the results are new.

Some Characterizations of the Extended Beta and Gamma Functions: Properties and Applications

The article represents the elementary and general introduction of some characterizations of the extended gamma and beta Functions and their important properties with various representations. This paper provides reviews of some of the new proposals to extend the form of basic functions and some closed-form representation of more integral functions is described. Some of the relative behaviors of the extended function, the special cases resulting from them when fixing the parameters, the decomposition equation, the integrative representation of the proposed general formula, the correlations related to the proposed formula, the frequency relationships, and the differentiation equation for these basic functions were investigated. We also investigated the asymptotic behavior of some special cases, known formulas, the basic decomposition equation, integral representations, convolutions, recurrence relations, and differentiation formula for these target functions by studying. Applications of these functions have been presented in the evaluation of some reversible Laplace transforms to the complex of definite integrals and the infinite series of related basic functions.

A class of definite integrals involving a quotient function with a reducible polynomial, logarithm and nested logarithm functions are derived with a possible connection to contact problems for a wedge.
