Concordant sequences and integral-valued entire functions

Jonathan Pila, Fernando Rodriguez Villegas (1999)

Acta Arithmetica

A classic theorem of Pólya shows that the function 2 z is the “smallest” integral-valued entire transcendental function. A variant due to Gel’fond applies to entire functions taking integral values on a geometric progression of integers, and Bézivin has given a generalization of both results. We give a sharp formulation of Bézivin’s result together with a further generalization.

Conjugation to a shift and the splitting of invariant manifolds

Vassiliĭ Gelfreich (1997)

Applicationes Mathematicae

We give sufficient conditions for a diffeomorphism in the plane to be analytically conjugate to a shift in a complex neighborhood of a segment of an invariant curve. For a family of functions close to the identity uniform estimates are established. As a consequence an exponential upper estimate for splitting of separatrices is established for diffeomorphisms of the plane close to the identity. The constant in the exponent is related to the width of the analyticity domain of the limit flow separatrix....

Counting walks in a quadrant: a unified approach via boundary value problems

Kilian Raschel (2012)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

The aim of this article is to introduce a unified method to obtain explicit integral representations of the trivariate generating function counting the walks with small steps which are confined to a quarter plane. For many models, this yields for the first time an explicit expression of the counting generating function. Moreover, the nature of the integrand of the integral formulations is shown to be directly dependent on the finiteness of a naturally attached group of birational transformations...
