The pertinent proofs are somewhat demanding except when all the involved functions are regularly varying. Next, we give an exposition of three types of exponential variation with an exhaustive list of various asymptotic functional equations satisfied by these functions and detailed results concerning operations on them. Simple applications to integrals of a product and asymptotic behavior of sums are given. The paper concludes with applications of higher-order regular, rapid or exponential variation to asymptotic expansions for an expression of type f(x+r(x)).展开更多

For order 1 the theory of regularly-varying functions (with a minimum of regularity such as measurability) is well established and well developed whereas for higher orders involving differentiable functions we encounter different approaches in the literature not linked together, and the cases of rapid or exponential variation, even of order 1, are not systrematically treated. In this semi-expository paper we systematize much scattered matter concerning the pertinent theory of such classes of functions hopefully being of help to those who need these results for various applications. The present Part I contains the higher-order theory for regular, smooth and rapid variation.展开更多

文摘An analytic function f in the unit disk D := {z ∈ C : |z| 〈 1}, standardly normalized, is called close-to-convex with respect to the Koebe function k(z) := z/(1-z)2, z ∈ D, if there exists δ ∈ (-π/2,π/2) such that Re {eiδ(1-z)2f′(z)} 〉 0, z ∈ D. For the class C(k) of all close-to-convex functions with respect to k, related to the class of functions convex in the positive direction of the imaginary axis, the Fekete-Szego problem is studied.
文摘In this second part, we thoroughly examine the types of higher-order asymptotic variation of a function obtained by all possible basic algebraic operations on higher-order varying functions. The pertinent proofs are somewhat demanding except when all the involved functions are regularly varying. Next, we give an exposition of three types of exponential variation with an exhaustive list of various asymptotic functional equations satisfied by these functions and detailed results concerning operations on them. Simple applications to integrals of a product and asymptotic behavior of sums are given. The paper concludes with applications of higher-order regular, rapid or exponential variation to asymptotic expansions for an expression of type f(x+r(x)).
文摘Motivated by a general theory of finite asymptotic expansions in the real domain for functions f of one real variable, a theory developed in a previous series of papers, we present a detailed survey on the classes of higher-order asymptotically-varying functions where “asymptotically” stands for one of the adverbs “regularly, smoothly, rapidly, exponentially”. For order 1 the theory of regularly-varying functions (with a minimum of regularity such as measurability) is well established and well developed whereas for higher orders involving differentiable functions we encounter different approaches in the literature not linked together, and the cases of rapid or exponential variation, even of order 1, are not systrematically treated. In this semi-expository paper we systematize much scattered matter concerning the pertinent theory of such classes of functions hopefully being of help to those who need these results for various applications. The present Part I contains the higher-order theory for regular, smooth and rapid variation.
文摘The Red Sea-Gulf of Suez-Cairo-Alexandria Clysmic-Trend in northern Egypt is the main earthquake zone in the country,with a moderate-to-high seismic hazard and a history of significant earthquakes caused by rifting and active faulting.To improve our understanding of the tectonic and seismic processes in this area,more comprehensive imaging of the crustal structure is required.This can be achieved by increasing the number of receiver functions(RFs)recorded by the seismic stations in northern Egypt and the southeastern Mediterranean.Data handling and processing should also be automated to increase process efficiency.In this study,we developed a capsule neural network for automated selection of RFs.The model was trained on a dataset containing RFs(both selected and unselected)from five broadband stations in northern Egypt.Stations SLM,SIWA,KOT,NBNS,and NKL are located in the unstable shelf region of Egypt,where limited knowledge of the deep crustal structure is available.The proposed capsule neural network achieved an average precision of 80%on the test set.The automated selection of RFs using a capsule neural network has the potential to significantly improve the efficiency and accuracy of RF analysis,as demonstrated by the stacking test.This could lead to a better understanding of crustal structure and tectonic processes in northern Egypt and the southeastern Mediterranean.
