Mathematics is a natural language for quantifying and codifying thoughts and ideas. It is also a language of precision and logic. Just as pictures or words can be used to describe objects or actions, ...

The benchmark tests show that the noise-free realization of QA can significantly outperform state-of-the-art classical algorithms. Quantum annealing (QA) is a cutting-edge algorithm that leverages the ...

A method to replace a continuous univariate distribution with a discrete distribution that takes MN different values is analysed. Both distributions share the same rth moments for r = 0,..., 2N - 1 ...

In this paper, we consider the discrete power function associated with the sixth Painlevé equation. This function is a special solution of the so-called crossratio equation with a similarity ...
