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 weighted Plancherel formula II. The case of the ball

Genkai Zhang (1992)

Studia Mathematica

The group SU(1,d) acts naturally on the Hilbert space L ² ( B d μ α ) ( α > - 1 ) , where B is the unit ball of d and d μ α the weighted measure ( 1 - | z | ² ) α d m ( z ) . It is proved that the irreducible decomposition of the space has finitely many discrete parts and a continuous part. Each discrete part corresponds to a zero of the generalized Harish-Chandra c-function in the lower half plane. The discrete parts are studied via invariant Cauchy-Riemann operators. The representations on the discrete parts are equivalent to actions on some holomorphic...

An introduction to finite fibonomial calculus

Ewa Krot (2004)

Open Mathematics

This is an indicatory presentation of main definitions and theorems of Fibonomial Calculus which is a special case of ψ-extented Rota's finite operator calculus [7].

Approximation by q -Bernstein type operators

Zoltán Finta (2011)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Using the q -Bernstein basis, we construct a new sequence { L n } of positive linear operators in C [ 0 , 1 ] . We study its approximation properties and the rate of convergence in terms of modulus of continuity.
