Asymptotic expansions for enumerating connected labelled graphs
Keith Briggs
I compute several terms of the asymptotic expansion of the number of connected labelled graphs with n nodes and m edges, for small k=m-n.
A note on the distribution of the maximum of a set of Poisson random variables
K. M. Briggs, L. Song, T. Prellberg
Given a set of independent Poisson random variables with common mean, we study the distribution of their maximum and obtain an accurate asymptotic formula to locate the most probab…
Modelling train delays with q-exponential functions
Keith Briggs, Christian Beck
We demonstrate that the distribution of train delays on the British railway network is accurately described by q-exponential functions. We explain this by constructing an underlyin…
Some explicit badly approximable pairs
Keith Briggs
I consider the Diophantine approximation problem of sup-norm simultaneous rational approximation with common denominator of a pair of irrational numbers, and compute explicitly som…
Another universal differential equation
Keith Briggs
I construct a new universal differential equation (B), in the sense of Rubel. That is, its solutions approximate to arbitrary accuracy any continuous function on any interval of th…
Corrections to universal scaling in real maps
Keith Briggs
I discuss the universal aspects of scaling in period-doubling sequences in families of maps of the real line possessing non-integer degree. I show that the scaling behaviour in bot…
