Let Δ(x) denote the error term in the Dirichlet divisor problem, and E(T) the error term in the asymptotic formula for the mean square of $$\left| {\varsigma \left( {\tfrac{1}{2} + it} \right)} \right|$$ . If $$E^* \left( t \right) = E\left( t \right) - 2\pi \Delta ^* \left( {t / 2\pi } \right)$$ with $$\Delta ^* \left( x \right) = - \Delta \left( x \right) + 2\Delta \left( {2x} \right) - \tfrac{1}{2}\Delta \left( {4x} \right)$$ , then we obtain $$\int_0^T {\left( {E^* \left( t \right)} \right)^4 dt \ll _e T^{16/9 + \varepsilon } } $$ . We also show how our method of proof yields the bound $$\sum\limits_{r = 1}^R {\left( {\int_{tr - G}^{tr + G} {\left| {\varsigma \left( {\tfrac{1}{2} + it} \right)} \right|^2 dt} } \right)^4 \ll _e T^{2 + e} G^{ - 2} + RG^4 T^\varepsilon } $$ , where T 1/5+ε≤G≪T, T<t 1<...<t R≤2T, t r +1−t r≥5G (r=1, ..., R−1).

In the present paper, we obtain two new formulas of the Apostol-Bernoulli polynomials (see On the Lerch Zeta function. Pacific J. Math., 1 (1951), 161–167.), using the Gaussian hypergeometric functions and Hurwitz Zeta functions respectively, and give certain special cases and applications.

In the framework of jet spaces endowed with a non-linear connection, the special curves of these spaces (h-paths, v-paths, stationary curves and geodesics) which extend the corresponding notions from Riemannian geometry are characterized. The main geometric objects and the paths are described and, in the case when the vertical metric is independent of fiber coordinates, the first two variations of energy and the extended Jacobi field equations are derived.

This paper presents a compound of the generalized negative binomial distribution with the generalized beta distribution. In the introductory part of the paper, we provide a chronological overview of recent developments in the compounding of distributions, including the Polish results. Then, in addition to presenting the probability function of the compound generalized negative binomial-generalized beta distribution, we present special cases as well as factorial and crude moments of some compound distributions.

Here we study zero-dimensional subschemes of ruled varieties, mainly Hirzebruch surfaces and rational normal scrolls, by applying the Horace method and the Terracini method

In this work we study the problem of the existence of bifurcation in the solution set of the equation F(x, λ)=0, where F: X×R k →Y is a C 2-smooth operator, X and Y are Banach spaces such that X⊂Y. Moreover, there is given a scalar product 〈·,·〉: Y×Y→R 1 that is continuous with respect to the norms in X and Y. We show that under some conditions there is bifurcation at a point (0, λ0)∈X×R k and we describe the solution set of the studied equation in a small neighbourhood of this point.

In this paper we prove the existence of periodic solutions for nonlinear impulsive viable problems monitored by differential inclusions of the type x′(t)∈F(t,x(t))+G(t,x(t)). Our existence theorems extend, in a broad sense, some propositions proved in [10] and improve a result due to Hristova-Bainov in [13].

The notion of n-fold grisly deductive systems is introduced. Some conditions for a deductive system to be an n-fold grisly deductive system are provided. Extension property for n-fold grisly deductive system is established.

In this paper we prove that a subharmonic function in ℝm of finite λ-type can be represented (within some subharmonic function) as the sum of a generalized Weierstrass canonical integral and a function of finite λ-type which tends to zero uniformly on compacts of ℝm. The known Brelot-Hadamard representation of subharmonic functions in ℝm of finite order can be obtained as a corollary from this result. Moreover, some properties of R-remainders of λ-admissible mass distributions are investigated.

A new orthonormality condition for scaling functions is derived. This condition shows a close connection between orthonormality and relations among discrete scaling moments. This new condition in connection with certain approximation properties of scaling functions enables to prove new relations among discrete scaling moments and consequently the same relations for continuous scaling moments.
