The inversion of nabla Laplace transform, corresponding to a causal sequence, is considered. Two classical methods, i.e., residual calculation method and partial fraction method are developed to perform the inverse nabla Laplace transform. For the first method, two alternative formulae are proposed when adopting the poles inside or outside of the contour, respectively. For the second method, a table on the transform pairs of those popular functions is carefully established. Besides illustrating the effectiveness of the developed methods with two illustrative examples, the applicability are further discussed in the fractional order case.
Discrete fractional order systems have attracted more and more attention in recent years. Nabla Laplace transform is an important tool to deal with the problem of nabla discrete fractional order systems, but there is still much room for its development. In this paper, 14 lemmas are listed to conclude the existing properties and 14 theorems are developed to describe the innovative features. On one hand, these properties make the N-transform more effective and efficient. On the other hand, they enrich the discrete fractional order system theory
Taylor series is a useful mathematical tool when describing and constructing a function. With the series representation, some properties of fractional calculus can be revealed clearly. This paper investigates two typical applications: Lebiniz rule and Laplace transform. It is analytically shown that the commonly used Leibniz rule cannot be applied for Caputo derivative. Similarly, the well-known Laplace transform of Riemann-Liouville derivative is doubtful for n-th continuously differentiable function. By the aid of this series representation, the exact formula of Caputo Leibniz rule and the explanation of Riemann-Liouville Laplace transform are presented. Finally, three illustrative examples are revisited to confirm the obtained results.
A concise analytical formula is developed for the inverse of an invertible 3 x 3 matrix using a telescoping method, and is generalized to larger square matrices. The formula is confirmed using randomly generated matrices in Matlab
A new approach to $L_2$-consistent estimation of a general density functional using $k$-nearest neighbor distances is proposed, where the functional under consideration is in the form of the expectation of some function $f$ of the densities at each point. The estimator is designed to be asymptotically unbiased, using the convergence of the normalized volume of a $k$-nearest neighbor ball to a Gamma distribution in the large-sample limit, and naturally involves the inverse Laplace transform of a scaled version of the function $f.$ Some instantiations of the proposed estimator recover existing $k$-nearest neighbor based estimators of Shannon and Renyi entropies and Kullback--Leibler and Renyi divergences, and discover new consistent estimators for many other functionals such as logarithmic entropies and divergences. The $L_2$-consistency of the proposed estimator is established for a broad class of densities for general functionals, and the convergence rate in mean squared error is established as a function of the sample size for smooth, bounded densities.
In this paper we prove that the Hankel multipliers of Laplace transform type on $(0,1)^n$ are of weak type (1,1). Also we analyze Lp-boundedness properties for the imaginary powers of Bessel operator on $(0,1)^n$.
