We consider exponentially small expansions present in the asymptotics of the generalised hypergeometric function, or Wright function, pΨq(z) for large |z| that have not been considered in the existing theory. Our interest is principally with those functions of this class that possess either a finite algebraic expansion or no such expansion and with parameter values that produce exponentially sm...

The five parameter gamma–Weibull distribution has been introduced by Leipnik and Pearce (2004). Nadarajah and Kotz (2007) have simplified it into four parameter form, using hypergeometric functions in some special cases. We show that the probability distribution function, all moments of positive order and the characteristic function of gamma–Weibull distribution of a random variable can be expl...

In terms of Wright generalized hypergeometric function we define a class of analytic functions. The class generalize well known classes of k-starlike functions and k-uniformly convex functions. Necessary and sufficient coefficient bounds are given for functions in this class. Further distortion bounds, extreme points and results on partial sums are investigated.

We construct a simple model of monetary exchange where, as in Lagos and Wright (2003), trades take place in both centralized and decentralized markets. However, in constrast to Lagos and Wright, we allow for general preferences and introduce nonconvexities (indivisiblities) and sunspots. In the centralized market, agents can trade statecontingent commodities. We show that nonconvexities and sun...

This paper is concerned with the problem of Boolean approximation in the following sense: given a Boolean function class and an arbitrary Boolean function, what is the function’s best proxy in the class? Specifically, what is its strongest logical consequence (or envelope) in the class of affine Boolean functions. We prove various properties of affine Boolean functions and their representation ...

In this paper we describe how the degrees of the irreducible characters of the affine subgroups of the classical groups under consideration can be found inductively. In [4] Gow obtained certain character degrees for all of the affine subgroups of the classical groups. We apply the method of Fischer to the above groups and, in addition to the character degrees given in [4], we obtain some ne...

Interest point detection is essential process for many computer vision applications, which must provide invariant points to several image variations, such as, rotation, zoom, blur, illumination variation and change of viewpoints. Harris-Affine detector is considered as one of the most effective interest point detectors, although it still presents vulnerability to some image. This paper proposes...
