Asymptotic Euler-Maclaurin formula over lattice polytopes
An asymptotic expansion formula of Riemann sums over lattice polytopes is
given. The formula is an asymptotic form of the local Euler-Maclaurin formula
due to Berline-Vergne. The proof given here for Delzant lattice polytopes is
independent of the local Euler-Maclaurin formula. But we use it for general
lattice polytopes. As corollaries, an explicit formula for each term in the
expansion over Delzant polytopes in two dimension and an explicit formula for
the third term of the expansion for Delzant polytopes in arbitrary dimension
are given. Moreover, some uniqueness results are given.Comment: 35 pages. Results in the previous version are generalized to lattice
polytopes. Some further results are added. The title is changed. The
organization is changed to clarify the discussion
Riemann sums over polytopes
We show that the Euler-MacLaurin formula for Riemann sums has an
n-dimensional analogue in which intervals on the line get replaced by convex
polytopes.Comment: 13 page
Resurgence of the Euler-MacLaurin summation formula
The Euler-MacLaurin summation formula relates a sum of a function to a
corresponding integral, with a remainder term. The remainder term has an
asymptotic expansion, and for a typical analytic function, it is a divergent
(Gevrey-1) series. Under some decay assumptions of the function in a half-plane
(resp. in the vertical strip containing the summation interval), Hardy (resp.
Abel-Plana) prove that the asymptotic expansion is a Borel summable series, and
give an exact Euler-MacLaurin summation formula.
Using a mild resurgence hypothesis for the function to be summed, we give a
Borel summable transseries expression for the remainder term, as well as a
Laplace integral formula, with an explicit integrand which is a resurgent
function itself. In particular, our summation formula allows for resurgent
functions with singularities in the vertical strip containing the summation
interval.
Finally, we give two applications of our results. One concerns the
construction of solutions of linear difference equations with a small
parameter. And another concerns the problem of proving resurgence of formal
power series associated to knotted objects.Comment: AMS-LaTeX, 15 pages with 2 figure
