A recovery of Brouncker's proof for the quadrature continued fraction.

Sergey Khrushchev (2006)

Publicacions Matemàtiques

350 years ago in Spring of 1655 Sir William Brouncker on a request by John Wallis obtained a beautiful continued fraction for 4/π. Brouncker never published his proof. Many sources on the history of Mathematics claim that this proof was lost forever. In this paper we recover the original proof from Wallis' remarks presented in his Arithmetica Infinitorum. We show that Brouncker's and Wallis' formulas can be extended to MacLaurin's sinusoidal spirals via related Euler's products. We derive Ramanujan's...

A recursion formula for the moments of the gaussian orthogonal ensemble

M. Ledoux (2009)

Annales de l'I.H.P. Probabilités et statistiques

We present an analogue of the Harer–Zagier recursion formula for the moments of the gaussian Orthogonal Ensemble in the form of a five term recurrence equation. The proof is based on simple gaussian integration by parts and differential equations on Laplace transforms. A similar recursion formula holds for the gaussian Symplectic Ensemble. As in the complex case, the result is interpreted as a recursion formula for the number of 1-vertex maps in locally orientable surfaces with a given number of...

A simple method for constructing non-liouvillian first integrals of autonomous planar systems

Axel Schulze-Halberg (2006)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

We show that a transformation method relating planar first-order differential systems to second order equations is an effective tool for finding non-liouvillian first integrals. We obtain explicit first integrals for a subclass of Kukles systems, including fourth and fifth order systems, and for generalized Liénard-type systems.

A transplantation theorem for ultraspherical polynomials at critical index

J. J. Guadalupe, V. I. Kolyada (2001)

Studia Mathematica

We investigate the behaviour of Fourier coefficients with respect to the system of ultraspherical polynomials. This leads us to the study of the “boundary” Lorentz space λ corresponding to the left endpoint of the mean convergence interval. The ultraspherical coefficients c ( λ ) ( f ) of λ -functions turn out to behave like the Fourier coefficients of functions in the real Hardy space ReH¹. Namely, we prove that for any f λ the series n = 1 c ( λ ) ( f ) c o s n θ is the Fourier series of some function φ ∈ ReH¹ with | | φ | | R e H ¹ c | | f | | λ .
