Enumeration of integral tetrahedra.
2010 Mathematics Subject Classification: 33C45, 40G05.In this paper we give some results concerning the equiconvergence and equisummability of series in Jacobi polynomials.
It is assumed that activity times in stochastic activity networks (SANs) are independent Erlang random variable (r.v.). A recurrence method of determining the th moments of the completion time is presented. Applications are provided for illustration and are used to evaluate the applicability and appropriateness of the Erlang model to represent activity network.
We perform a complete study of the truncation error of the Jacobi-Anger series. This series expands every plane wave in terms of spherical harmonics . We consider the truncated series where the summation is performed over the ’s satisfying . We prove that if is large enough, the truncated series gives rise to an error lower than as soon as satisfies where is the Lambert function and are pure positive constants. Numerical experiments show that this asymptotic is optimal. Those results...
We perform a complete study of the truncation error of the Gegenbauer series. This series yields an expansion of the Green kernel of the Helmholtz equation, , which is the core of the Fast Multipole Method for the integral equations. We consider the truncated series where the summation is performed over the indices . We prove that if is large enough, the truncated series gives rise to an error lower than as soon as satisfies where is the Lambert function, depends only on and are...

Let || · || be the uniform norm in the unit disk. We study the quantities Mn (α) := inf (||zP(z) + α|| - α) where the infimum is taken over all polynomials P of degree n - 1 with ||P(z)|| = 1 and α > 0. In a recent paper by Fournier, Letac and Ruscheweyh (Math. Nachrichten 283 (2010), 193-199) it was shown that infα>0Mn (α) = 1/n. We find the exact values of Mn (α) and determine corresponding extremal polynomials. The method applied uses known cases of maximal ranges of polynomials.
The aim of this article is to give new refinements and sharpenings of Shafer's inequality involving the arctangent function. These are obtained by means of a change of variables, which makes the computations much easier than the classical approach.
