abstract = {The class of $C^2$-finite sequences is a natural generalization of holonomic sequences and consists of sequences satisfying a linear recurrence with C-finite coefficients, i.e., coefficients satisfying a linear recurrence with constant coefficients themselves. Recently, we investigated computational properties of $C^2$-finite sequences: we showed that these sequences form a difference ring and provided methods to compute in this ring.From an algorithmic point of view, some of these results were not as far reaching as we hoped for. In this paper, we define the class of simple $C^2$-finite sequences and show that it satisfies the same computational properties, but does not share the same technical issues. In particular, we are able to derive bounds for the asymptotic behavior, can compute closure properties more efficiently, and have a characterization via the generating function.},

abstract = {We calculate the unpolarized and polarized two--loop massless off--shell operator matrix elements in QCD to $O(ep)$ in the dimensional parameter in an automated way. Here we use the method of arbitrary high Mellin moments and difference ring theory, based on integration-by-parts relations. This method also constitutes one way to compute the QCD anomalous dimensions. The presented higher order contributions to these operator matrix elements occur as building blocks in the corresponding higher order calculations upto four--loop order. All contributing quantities can be expressed in terms of harmonic sums in Mellin--$N$ space or by harmonic polylogarithms in $z$--space. We also perform comparisons to the literature. },

To this end we multiply theleft side by an appropriate factor such the resultis a modular function for $Gamma_0(121)$ havingonly poles at infinity. It turns out thatpolynomials in the $e_alpha$ do not generate thefull space of such functions, so we were led tomodify our goal. More concretely, we give threedifferent ways to construct the space of modularfunctions for $Gamma_0(121)$ having only poles atinfinity. This in turn leads to three differentrepresentations of $R$ not solely in terms of the$e_alpha$ but, for example, by using as generatorsalso other functions like the modular invariant $j$.},

abstract = {Abstract Most widely used special functions, such as orthogonal polynomials, Bessel functions, Airy functions, etc., are defined as solutions to differential equations with polynomial coefficients. This class of functions is referred to as D-finite functions. There are many symbolic algorithms (and implementations thereof) to operate with these objects exactly. Recently, we have extended this notion to a more general class that also allows for good symbolic handling: differentially definable functions. In this paper, we give an overview on what is currently known about this new class.},

Contiguous Relations and Creative Telescoping

title = {{Contiguous Relations and Creative Telescoping}},
booktitle = {{Anti-Differentiation and the Calculation of Feynman Amplitudes}},
language = {english},
abstract = {This article presents an algorithmic theory of contiguous relations.Contiguous relations, first studied by Gauß, are a fundamental concept within the theory of hypergeometric series. In contrast to Takayama’s approach, which for elimination uses non-commutative Gröbner bases, our framework is based on parameterized telescoping and can be viewed as an extension of Zeilberger’s creative telescoping paradigm based on Gosper’s algorithm. The wide range of applications include elementary algorithmic explanations of the existence of classical formulas for non- terminating hypergeometric series such as Gauß, Pfaff-Saalschütz, or Dixon summation. The method can be used to derive new theorems, like a non-terminating extension of a classical recurrence established by Wilson between terminating 4F3-series. Moreover, our setting helps to explain the non-minimal order phenomenon of Zeilberger’s algorithm.},

MacMahon's partition analysis XIII: Schmidt type partitions and modular forms

title = {{MacMahon's partition analysis XIII: Schmidt type partitions and modular forms}},
language = {english},
abstract = {In 1999, Frank Schmidt noted that the number of partitions of integers with distinct parts in which the first, third, fifth, etc., summands add to $n$ is equal to $p(n)$, the number of partitions of $n$. The object of this paper is to provide a context for this result which leads directly to many other theorems of this nature and which can be viewed as a continuation of our work on elongated partition diamonds. Again generating functions are infinite products built by the Dedekind eta function which, in turn, lead to interesting arithmetic theorems and conjectures for the related partition functions. },

Using holonomicprocedures, computationally it is often straightforwardto derive such differential equations as conjectures.In the spirit of the ``first guess, then prove'' paradigm,we present a new algorithm to prove such conjectures.},

Recursion relations for hp-FEM Element Matrices on quadrilaterals

abstract = {Abstract In this paper we consider higher order shape functions for finite elements on quadrilaterals. Using tensor products of suitable Jacobi polynomials, it can be proved that the corresponding mass and stiffness matrices are sparse with respect to polynomial degree p . Due to the orthogonal relations between Jacobi polynomials the exact values of the entries of mass and stiffness matrix can be determined. Using symbolic computation, we can find simple recurrence relations which allow us to compute the remaining nonzero entries in optimal arithmetic complexity. Besides the H1 case also the conformal basis functions for H(Div) and H(Curl) are investigated.},
