Abstract The paper aims to generalize Clausen’s identity to the square of any Gauss hypergeometric function. Accordingly, solutions of the related 3rd order linear differential equation are found in terms of certain bivariate series that can reduce to 3F2 series similar to those in Clausen’s identity. The general contiguous variation of Clausen’s identity is found. The related Chaundy’s identit...

A classical link in 3-space can be represented by a Gauss phrase encoding a plane diagram of the link in a purely combinatorial way. A Gauss phrase may give rise not to a classical link, but to a diagram with virtual crossings. We describe a linear algorithm determining whether a Gauss phrase encodes a classical link. We characterize Wirtinger presentations realizable by virtual link groups.

We study the mean curvature flow of complete space-like submanifolds in pseudo-Euclidean space with bounded Gauss image, as well as that of complete submanifolds in Euclidean space with convex Gauss image. By using the confinable property of the Gauss image under the mean curvature flow we prove the long time existence results in both cases. We also study the asymptotic behavior of these soluti...

We derive explicitly the weights and the nodes of the generalized Gauss-Radau and Gauss-Lobatto quadratures with Jacobi weight functions. AMS subject classification: 65D32, 65D30, 41A55.

Matrix exponential methods have long been utilized for isotopic depletion in nuclear fuel calculations. In this paper we discuss the development of such addition to species transport liquid fueled molten salt reactors (MSRs). Conventional work with fixed assemblies which fission products and fissile material do not throughout core. Liquid a much different way, allowing primary reactor loop. Bec...

We give new proofs of two basic results in number theory: The law of quadratic reciprocity and the sign of the Gauss sum. We show that these results are encoded in the relation between the discrete Fourier transform and the action of the Weyl element in the Weil representation modulo p, q and pq. 0. Introduction Two basic results due to Gauss are the quadratic reciprocity law and the sign of th...

Approximations of matrix-valued functions of the form WT f(A)W , where A ∈ Rm×m is symmetric, W ∈ Rm×k , with m large and k m, has orthonormal columns, and f is a function, can be computed by applying a few steps of the symmetric block Lanczos method to A with initial block-vector W ∈ Rm×k . Golub and Meurant have shown that the approximants obtained in this manner may be considered block Gauss...
