We examine regularity and basis properties of the family of rescaled $p$-cosine functions. We find sharp estimates for their Fourier coefficients. We then determine two thresholds, $p_0<2$ and $p_1>2$, such that this family is a Schauder basis of $L_s(0,1)$ for all $s>1$ and $pin[p_0,p_1]$.
We consider an integral transform introduced by Prabhakar, involving generalised multi-parameter Mittag-Leffler functions, which can be used to introduce and investigate several different models of fractional calculus. We derive a new series expression for this transform, in terms of classical Riemann-Liouville fractional integrals, and use it to obtain or verify series formulae in various specific cases corresponding to different fractional-calculus models. We demonstrate the power of our result by applying the series formula to derive analogues of the product and chain rules in more general fractional contexts. We also discuss how the Prabhakar model can be used to explore the idea of fractional iteration in connection with semigroup properties.
In this paper we formulate a concrete method for determining whether a system of dilated periodic functions forms a Riesz basis in $L^2(0,1)$. This method relies on a general framework developed by Hedenmalm, Lindqvist and Seip about 20 years ago, which turns the basis question into one about the localisation of the zeros and poles of a corresponding analytic multiplier. Our results improve upon various criteria formulated previously, which give sufficient conditions for invertibility of the multiplier in terms of sharp estimates on the Fourier coefficients. Our focus is on the concrete verification of the hypotheses by means of analytical or accurate numerical approximations. We then examine the basis question for profiles in a neighbourhood of a non-basis family generated by periodic jump functions. For one of these profiles, the $p$-sine functions, we determine a threshold for positive answer to the basis question which improves upon those found recently.
Classical Schur analysis is intimately connected to the theory of orthogonal polynomials on the circle [Simon, 2005]. We investigate here the connection between multipoint Schur analysis and orthogonal rational functions. Specifically, we study the convergence of the Wall rational functions via the development of a rational analogue to the SzegH o theory, in the case where the interpolation points may accumulate on the unit circle. This leads us to generalize results from [Khrushchev,2001], [Bultheel et al., 1999], and yields asymptotics of a novel type.
A generalised Weber function is given by $w_N(z) = eta(z/N)/eta(z)$, where $eta(z)$ is the Dedekind function and $N$ is any integer; the original function corresponds to $N=2$. We classify the cases where some power $w_N^e$ evaluated at some quadratic integer generates the ring class field associated to an order of an imaginary quadratic field. We compare the heights of our invariants by giving a general formula for the degree of the modular equation relating $w_N(z)$ and $j(z)$. Our ultimate goal is the use of these invariants in constructing reductions of elliptic curves over finite fields suitable for cryptographic use.
We improve the currently known thresholds for basisness of the family of periodically dilated p,q-sine functions. Our findings rely on a Beurling decomposition of the corresponding change of coordinates in terms of shift operators of infinite multiplicity. We also determine refined bounds on the Riesz constant associated to this family. These results seal mathematical gaps in the existing literature on the subject.
