Exact Recursion Relation for 2 × N Arrays of Dumbbells
It is shown that A(q, N), the number of ways of arranging q indistinguishable dumbbells on a 2 × N rectangular array of compartments, is exactly described by the recursion relation.For large val...

We show that, in the limit of large lambda, integrals of the form

[dformula H(lambda) [equivalent] [integral][sub a][sup b]((f(x)dx)/(u(x) + e[sup i lambda x]))]

are essentially given by [integral]R[prime][f(x)/u(x)]dx where the region R[prime] is the union of all those subintervals in which |u| >= 1. The corrections to this expression are of two kinds: terms O(1/lambda) which depend on the details of averaging to remove logarithmic singularities in H(lambda) and terms O[(ln lambda)/lambda]. Some examples are given. If |u| <= 1, the leading term in H vanishes and H(lambda) is bounded by (ln lambda)/lambda. ©1970 The American Institute of Physics
