Real-variables characterization of generalized Stieltjes functions
We obtain a characterization of generalized Stieltjes functions of any order λ > 0 in terms of inequalities for their derivatives on (0,∞). When λ = 1, this provides a new and simple proof of a characterization of Stieltjes functions first obtained by Widder in 1938.
متن کاملAccurate visualization of graphs of functions of two real variables
The study of a real function of two real variables can be supported by visualization using a Computer Algebra System (CAS). One type of constraints of the system is due to the algorithms implemented, yielding continuous approximations of the given function by interpolation. This often masks discontinuities of the function and can provide strange plots, not compatible with the mathematics. In re...
متن کاملUsing Complex Variables to Estimate Derivatives of Real Functions
A method to approximate derivatives of real functions using complex variables which avoids the subtractive cancellation errors inherent in the classical derivative approximations is described. Numerical examples illustrating the power of the approximation are presented.
متن کاملUnconstrained Optimization of Real Functions in Complex Variables
Nonlinear optimization problems in complex variables are frequently encountered in applied mathematics and engineering applications such as control theory, signal processing and electrical engineering. Optimization of these problems often requires a firstor second-order approximation of the objective function to generate a new step or descent direction. However, such methods cannot be applied t...
متن کاملProbability Generating Functions for Discrete Real Valued Random Variables
The probability generating function is a powerful technique for studying the law of finite sums of independent discrete random variables taking integer positive values. For real valued discrete random variables, the well known elementary theory of Dirichlet series and the symbolic computation packages available nowadays, such as Mathematica 5 TM, allows us to extend to general discrete random v...
