Abstract

The resummation of superfactorially divergent series represents a significant computational challenge in mathematical physics. In the present paper the resummation of a specific class of Stieltjes series characterized by a moment sequence growing as $(2n)!$ will be addressed. Despite the fact that Carleman's condition is satisfied for these series, the convergence rate of Pad\'e approximants is severely hindered by the logarithmic divergence of the associated Carleman series. Weniger's $\delta$ transformation is proposed as a highly efficient alternative resummation tool. By employing recently established results on the converging factors of superfactorially divergent Stieltjes series, an exact integral representation for the truncation error is obtained. This representation enables the rigorous derivation of the leading-order asymptotic behavior of the transformation error, as well as the estimation of the related convergence rate, for real positive arguments. Numerical experiments strongly support the theoretical findings, suggesting that the $\delta$ transformation offers a robust and computationally efficient framework for decoding this class of wildly divergent expansions

Average Chord Lengths in a Triangle

Let $P$ be a point inside a triangle $T$. We consider the average length of the chords of $T$ through $P$, where the direction of the chord is chosen uniformly. An elementary formula is obtained in terms of the distances from $P$ to the sides and vertices of the triangle. Several classical triangle centers give especially simple specializations. For example, if $I$ is the incenter, then \[ M_T(I)=\frac{2r}{\pi} \log\left(\cot\frac A4\cot\frac B4\cot\frac C4\right). \] Our main result is the sharp inequality \[ M_T(P)\le \frac{p}{\pi\sqrt3}\log(2+\sqrt3), \] valid simultaneously for every triangle of perimeter $p$ and every interior point $P$. Thus, among all such pairs $(T,P)$, the largest possible average chord length occurs only when $T$ is equilateral and $P$ is its center. The proof is an elementary symmetrization argument. We close with brief remarks relating the problem to the radial center of a convex body, the electrostatic potential center of a triangle, and dual quermassintegrals.

A Proof of Liu's Conjecture on the Fundamental Triangle Inequality

Let $a,b,c$ be the side lengths of a triangle, and let $R$ and $r$ denote its circumradius and inradius, respectively. We prove a conjecture of Liu stating that \[\sum_{\mathrm{cyc}} \left(\frac{a(b+c-a)}{bc}\right)^k \geq 2+\left(\frac{2r}{R}\right)^k,~~k>1, \] with the reverse inequality for $0<k<1$. The proof reduces the problem to three positive variables with fixed sum and product. We also determine the equality cases.
