A Tauberian theorem for Ingham summation method

The aim of this work is to prove a Tauberian theorem for the Ingham summability method. The Tauberian theorem we prove is then applied to analyze asymptotics of mean values of multiplicative functions on natural numbers.Comment: 25 page

Voronoi summation formulae and multiplicative functions on permutations

We prove a Tauberian theorem for the Voronoi summation method of divergent series with an estimate of the remainder term. The results on the Voronoi summability are then applied to analyze the mean values of multiplicative functions on random permutations.Comment: 43 pages. This paper is based on the material presented in chapters 1.1 and 1.2 of author's doctorial dissertation that was written and defended at Vilnius University in 2004 under supervision of prof. E. Manstaviciu

Analysis of an exhaustive search algorithm in random graphs and the n^{c\log n} -asymptotics

We analyze the cost used by a naive exhaustive search algorithm for finding a maximum independent set in random graphs under the usual G_{n,p} -model where each possible edge appears independently with the same probability p. The expected cost turns out to be of the less common asymptotic order n^{c\log n}, which we explore from several different perspectives. Also we collect many instances where such an order appears, from algorithmics to analysis, from probability to algebra. The limiting distribution of the cost required by the algorithm under a purely idealized random model is proved to be normal. The approach we develop is of some generality and is amenable for other graph algorithms.Comment: 35 page

An analytic approach to the asymptotic variance of trie statistics and related structures

We develop analytic tools for the asymptotics of general trie statistics, which are particularly advantageous for clarifying the asymptotic variance. Many concrete examples are discussed for which new Fourier expansions are given. The tools are also useful for other splitting processes with an underlying binomial distribution. We specially highlight Philippe Flajolet's contribution in the analysis of these random structures.Comment: 51 pages, the expressions of all Fourier coefficients are largely simplified in this versio
