Mathematical methods and special functions have long served as the backbone of modern theoretical physics and applied mathematics. These tools enable researchers to solve complex differential ...

NIST has released a five-chapter preview of the much-anticipated online Digital Library of Mathematical Functions. In development for over a decade, the DLMF is designed to be a modern successor to a ...

A survey of contemporary topics in mathematics such as: voting systems and power, apportionment, fair division of divisible and indivisible assets, efficient distribution, scheduling and routing, ...

Abstract A new characterization of the exact minimax penalty function method is presented. The exactness of the penalization for the exact minimax penalty function method is analyzed in the context of ...

“There are five fundamental operations in mathematics,” the German mathematician Martin Eichler supposedly said. “Addition, subtraction, multiplication, division and modular forms.” Part of the joke, ...
