Approximation of Discontinuous Functions by Positive Linear Operators. A Probabilistic Approach
ABSTRACT We obtain approximation results for general positive linear operators satisfying mild conditions, when acting on discontinuous functions and absolutely continuous functions having discontinuous derivatives. The upper bounds, given in terms of a local first modulus of continuity, are best possible, in the sense that we can construct particular ...

Refinements of the Bell and Stirling numbers [PDF]
We introduce new refinements of the Bell, factorial, and unsigned Stirling numbers of the first and second kind that unite the derangement, involution, associated factorial, associated Bell, incomplete Stirling, restricted factorial ...

The q-Stirling numbers of the second kind and its applications
Summary: The study of \(q\)-Stirling numbers of the second kind began with \textit{L. Carlitz} [Duke Math. J. 15, 987--1000 (1948; Zbl 0032.00304)]. Following Carlitz, we derive some identities and relations related to \(q\)-Stirling numbers of the second kind which appear to be either new or else new ways of expressing older ideas more comprehensively.

Abstract Conservation performance payments are becoming an increasingly popular instrument to tackle human–wildlife conflicts. In Sweden, Sámi communities practicing reindeer husbandry receive performance payments as compensation for reindeer losses caused by lynxes and wolverines.

Some combinatorial arrays related to the Lotka-Volterra system [PDF]
The purpose of this paper is to investigate the connection between the Lotka-Volterra system and combinatorics. We study several context-free grammars associated with the Lotka-Volterra system. Some combinatorial arrays, involving the Stirling numbers of

In this paper, by means of p-adic Volkenborn integrals we introduce and study two different degenerate versions of Bernoulli polynomials of the second kind, namely partially and fully degenerate Bernoulli polynomials of the second kind, and also their ...

A note on infinite series whose terms involve truncated degenerate exponentials
The degenerate exponentials are degenerate versions of the ordinary exponential and the truncated degenerate exponentials are obtained from the Taylor expansions of them by truncating the first finitely many terms.

Tree planting, natural colonisation, hybrid approaches: Land manager decisions explored
Abstract There is a global drive to protect biodiversity and help combat climate change. In the UK, this is expressed in a number of policy initiatives and tools that include increasing tree cover as an important nature‐based solution to achieving national policy targets.

Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Ordinary and degenerate Euler numbers and polynomials
In this paper, we study some identities on Euler numbers and polynomials, and those on degenerate Euler numbers and polynomials which are derived from the fermionic p-adic integrals on Zp $\mathbb{Z}_{p}$.
