In a similar spirit to the probabilistic generalization of Taylor's theorem by Massey and Whitt [13], we give a probabilistic analogue of the mean value theorem. The latter is shown to be useful in various contexts of reliability theory. In particular, we provide various applications to the evaluation of the mean total profits of devices having random lifetimes, to the mean total-time-on-test at an arbitrary order statistic of a random sample of lifetimes, and to the mean maintenance cost for the second room of queueing systems in steady state characterized by two serial waiting rooms.

Monotonicity analysis of delta fractional sums and differences of order υ∈(0,1] on the time scale hZ are presented in this study. For this analysis, two models of discrete fractional calculus, Riemann–Liouville and Caputo, are considered. There is a relationship between the delta Riemann–Liouville fractional h-difference and delta Caputo fractional h-differences, which we find in this study. Therefore, after we solve one, we can apply the same method to the other one due to their correlation. We show that y(z) is υ-increasing on Ma+υh,h, where the delta Riemann–Liouville fractional h-difference of order υ of a function y(z) starting at a+υh is greater or equal to zero, and then, we can show that y(z) is υ-increasing on Ma+υh,h, where the delta Caputo fractional h-difference of order υ of a function y(z) starting at a+υh is greater or equal to −1Γ(1−υ)(z−(a+υh))h(−υ)y(a+υh) for each z∈Ma+h,h. Conversely, if y(a+υh) is greater or equal to zero and y(z) is increasing on Ma+υh,h, we show that the delta Riemann–Liouville fractional h-difference of order υ of a function y(z) starting at a+υh is greater or equal to zero, and consequently, we can show that the delta Caputo fractional h-difference of order υ of a function y(z) starting at a+υh is greater or equal to −1Γ(1−υ)(z−(a+υh))h(−υ)y(a+υh) on Ma,h. Furthermore, we consider some related results for strictly increasing, decreasing, and strictly decreasing cases. Finally, the fractional forward difference initial value problems and their solutions are investigated to test the mean value theorem on the time scale hZ utilizing the monotonicity results.

AbstractWe study the density of rational points on a higher-dimensional orbifold $$(\mathbb {P}^{n-1},\Delta )$$ ( P n - 1 , Δ ) when $$\Delta $$ Δ is a $$\mathbb {Q}$$ Q -divisor involving hyperplanes. This allows us to address a question of Tanimoto about whether the set of rational points on such an orbifold constitutes a thin set. Our approach relies on the Hardy–Littlewood circle method to first study an asymptotic version of Waring’s problem for mixed powers. In doing so we make crucial use of the recent resolution of the main conjecture in Vinogradov’s mean value theorem, due to Bourgain–Demeter–Guth and Wooley.

The main purpose of this paper is using the mean value theorem of DirichletL-functions to study the asymptotic property of a sum analogous to Dedekind sum, and give an interesting mean square value formula.
