Generalized Burnett Hydrodynamics
No full textEquations of hydrodynamics (derived from the Boltzmann equation) beyond the Navier-Stokes level are studied by a method proposed earlier by the author. The main question we consider is the following: What is the most natural replacement for classical (ill-posed) Burnett equations?It is shown that, in some sense, it is a two-parameter set of Generalized Burnett Equations (GBEs) derived in this paper. Some equations of this class are even simpler than original Burnett equations. The region of stability in the space of parameters and other properties of GBEs are discussed.</p
Arithmetical Functions Associated with the k-ary Divisors of an Integer

We examine the summatory functions corresponding to the k-ary analogues of various popular functions in number theory, proving various results about the structure of the k-ary divisibility relations along the way
