Abstract The Zagier L-series encode data of real quadratic fields. We study the average size of these L-series, and prove asymptotic expansions and omega results for the expansion. We then show how the error term in the asymptotic expansion can be used to obtain error terms in the prime geodesic theorem.

The accuracy of the Normal or Poisson approximations can be significantly improved by adding part of an asymptotic expansion in the exponent. The signed-compound-Poisson measures obtained in this manner can be of the same structure as the Poisson distribution. For large deviations we prove that signed-compound-Poisson measures enlarge the zone of equivalence for tails.

We study the Lambert series [Formula: see text], for all [Formula: see text]. We obtain the complete asymptotic expansion of [Formula: see text] near [Formula: see text]. Our analysis of the Lambert series yields the asymptotic forms for several related [Formula: see text]-series: the [Formula: see text]-gamma and [Formula: see text]-polygamma functions, the [Formula: see text]-Pochhammer symbol and the Jacobi theta functions. Some typical results include [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], with relative errors of order [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] respectively.

Althoug Chebyshev [3] and Edeworth [5] had conceived of the formal expansions for distribution of sums of independent random variables, but only in Cramer’s work [4] was laid a proper foundation of this problem. In the case when random variables are lattice Esseen get the asymptotic expansion in a new different form. Here we extend this problem for quasi-lattice random variables.

Consider a sequence X = (Xn: n ≥ 1) of independent and identically distributed random variables, and an independent geometrically distributed random variable M with parameter p. The random variable SM = X1 + ∙ ∙ ∙ + XM is called a geometric sum. In this paper we obtain asymptotic expansions for the distribution of SM as p ↘ 0. If EX1 > 0, the asymptotic expansion is developed in powers of p and it provides higher-order correction terms to Renyi's theorem, which states that P(pSM > x) ≈ exp(-x/EX1). Conversely, if EX1 = 0 then the expansion is given in powers of √p. We apply the results to obtain corrected diffusion approximations for the M/G/1 queue. These expansions follow in a unified way as a consequence of new uniform renewal theory results that are also developed in this paper.

SynopsisA uniform asymptotic expansion of the Laplace integrals ℒ(f, s) with explicit remainder terms is given. This expansion is valid in the whole complex s−plane. In particular, for s = −ix, it provides the Fourier integral expansion.


It is shown that by the application of Borel’s method of summation to the later terms of an asymptotic expansion, the ‘sum’ of such terms can normally be replaced by an easily calculable series involving ‘basic converging factors’. As particular consequences, [i] the remainder in a truncated asymptotic expansion can be written down once the general term in the expansion is known; [ii] the converging factor for a given asymptotic expansion can conveniently be calculated from the basic converging factors; and [iii] the Stokes phenomenon is simply expressed in terms of discontinuities in these basic quantities. Formulae and tables are given for the basic converging factors.

AbstractFor the q–series we construct a companion q–series such that the asymptotic expansions of their logarithms as q → 1– differ only in the dominant few terms. The asymptotic expansion of their quotient then has a simple closed form; this gives rise to a new q–hypergeometric identity. We give an asymptotic expansion of a general class of q–series containing some of Ramanujan's mock theta functions and Selberg's identities.

We derive an asymptotic expansion for the distribution of a compound sum of independent random variables, all having the same rapidly varying subexponential distribution. The examples of a Poisson and geometric number of summands serve as an illustration of the main result. Complete calculations are done for a Weibull distribution, with which we derive, as examples and without any difficulties, seven-term expansions.

In this paper, we shall study systems governed by the Neumann problem of second-order elliptic equation with rapidly oscillating coefficients and with control and observations on the boundary. The multiscale asymptotic expansions of the solution for considering problem in the case without any constraints, and homogenized equation in the case with constraints will be given, their rigorous proofs will also be proposed.
