Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The importance of polynomials in the interdisciplinary field of mathematics, engineering, and science is well known. Over the past several decades, research on polynomials has been conducted extensively in many disciplines.

This Special Issue welcomes all research papers related to polynomials in mathematics, science, and industry.

Potential topics include but are not limited to the following:

  • The modern umbral calculus (binomial, Appell, and Sheffer polynomial sequences)
  • Orthogonal polynomials, matrix orthogonal polynomials, multiple orthogonal polynomials
  • Matrix and determinant approach to special polynomial sequences
  • Applications of special polynomial sequences
  • Number theory and special functions
  • Asymptotic methods in orthogonal polynomials
  • Fractional calculus and special functions
  • Symbolic computations and special functions
  • Applications of special functions to statistics, physical sciences, and engineering

We provide a realization of fractional supersymmetry quantum mechanics of order r, where the Hamiltonian and the supercharges involve the fractional Dunkl transform as a Klein type operator. We construct several classes of functions satisfying certain orthogonality relations. These functions can be expressed in terms of the associated Laguerre orthogonal polynomials and have shown that their zeros are the eigenvalues of the Hermitian supercharge. We call them the supersymmetric generalized Hermite polynomials. Full article

The empirical logarithmic Colebrook equation for hydraulic resistance in pipes implicitly considers the unknown flow friction factor. Its explicit approximations, used to avoid iterative computations, should be accurate but also computationally efficient. We present a rational approximate procedure that completely avoids the use of transcendental functions, such as logarithm or non-integer power, which require execution of the additional number of floating-point operations in computer processor units. Instead of these, we use only rational expressions that are executed directly in the processor unit. The rational approximation was found using a combination of a Padé approximant and artificial intelligence (symbolic regression). Numerical experiments in Matlab using 2 million quasi-Monte Carlo samples indicate that the relative error of this new rational approximation does not exceed 0.866%. Moreover, these numerical experiments show that the novel rational approximation is approximately two times faster than the exact solution given by the Wright omega function. Full article

In this paper, we introduce the two-variable truncated Fubini polynomials and numbers and then investigate many relations and formulas for these polynomials and numbers, including summation formulas, recurrence relations, and the derivative property. We also give some formulas related to the truncated Stirling numbers of the second kind and Apostol-type Stirling numbers of the second kind. Moreover, we derive multifarious correlations associated with the truncated Euler polynomials and truncated Bernoulli polynomials. Full article

In this paper, we study a class of nonlinear Choquard equation driven by the fractional Laplacian. When the potential function vanishes at infinity, we obtain the existence of a ground state solution for the fractional Choquard equation by using a non-Nehari manifold method. Moreover, in the zero mass case, we obtain a nontrivial solution by using a perturbation method. The results improve upon those in Alves, Figueiredo, and Yang (2015) and Shen, Gao, and Yang (2016).

In recent years, intensive studies on degenerate versions of various special numbers and polynomials have been done by means of generating functions, combinatorial methods, umbral calculus, p-adic analysis and differential equations. The degenerate Bernstein polynomials and operators were recently introduced as degenerate versions of the classical Bernstein polynomials and operators. Herein, we firstly derive some of their basic properties. Secondly, we explore some properties of the degenerate Euler numbers and polynomials and also their relations with the degenerate Bernstein polynomials. Full article
