Implementation of the Combined--Nonlinear Condensation Transformation
We discuss several applications of the recently proposed combined
nonlinear-condensation transformation (CNCT) for the evaluation of slowly
convergent, nonalternating series. These include certain statistical
distributions which are of importance in linguistics, statistical-mechanics
theory, and biophysics (statistical analysis of DNA sequences). We also discuss
applications of the transformation in experimental mathematics, and we briefly
expand on further applications in theoretical physics. Finally, we discuss a
related Mathematica program for the computation of Lerch's transcendent.Comment: 23 pages, 1 table, 1 figure (Comput. Phys. Commun., in press
