Deposits of clastic carbonate-dominated (calciclastic) sedimentary slope systems in the rock record have been identified mostly as linearly-consistent carbonate apron deposits, even though most ancient clastic carbonate slope deposits fit the submarine fan systems better. Calciclastic submarine fans are consequently rarely described and are poorly understood. Subsequently, very little is known especially in mud-dominated calciclastic submarine fan systems. Presented in this study are a sedimentological core and petrographic characterisation of samples from eleven boreholes from the Lower Carboniferous of Bowland Basin (Northwest England) that reveals a >250 m thick calciturbidite complex deposited in a calciclastic submarine fan setting. Seven facies are recognised from core and thin section characterisation and are grouped into three carbonate turbidite sequences. They include: 1) Calciturbidites, comprising mostly of highto low-density, wavy-laminated bioclast-rich facies; 2) low-density densite mudstones which are characterised by planar laminated and unlaminated muddominated facies; and 3) Calcidebrites which are muddy or hyper-concentrated debrisflow deposits occurring as poorly-sorted, chaotic, mud-supported floatstones.

In this paper I present a history of tractability of continuous problems, which has its beginning in the successful numerical tests for highdimensional integration of finance problems. Tractability results will be illustrated for two multivariate problems, integration and linear tensor products problems, in the worst case setting. My talk at FoCM'08 in Hong Kong and this paper are based on the book Tractability of Multivariate Problems , written jointly with Erich Novak. The first volume of our book has been recently published by the European Mathematical Society. Introduction Many people have recently become interested in studying the tractability of continuous problems. This area of research addresses the computational complexity of multivariate problems defined on spaces of functions of d variables, with d that can be in the hundreds or thousands; in fact, d can even be arbitrarily large. Such problems occur in numerous applications including physics, chemistry, finance, economics, and the computational sciences. As with all problems arising in information-based complexity, we want to solve multivariate problems to within ∈, using algorithms that use finitely many functions values or values of some linear functionals. Let n (∈, d ) be the minimal number of function values or linear functionals that is needed to compute the solution of the d -variate problem to within ∈. For many multivariate problems defined over standard spaces of functions n (∈, d ) is exponentially large in d .

Tractability of Multivariate Problems

The assertion (1.3) is now called the general cubic reciprocity law ; it was first proved by G. Eisenstein. Let p be a prime of the form 3n+1. It is well known that there are unique integers L and |M | such that 4p = L+27M with L ≡ 1 (mod 3). It follows that ( L 3M )2 ≡ −3 (mod p) and therefore m(p−1)/3 ≡ 1, ( − 1 − L 3M )/2 or ( −1 + L 3M ) /2 (mod p) for any integer m 6≡ 0 (mod p). In 1827 Jacobi [J] established the following rational cubic reciprocity law.

Let p > 3 be a prime, and let Rp be the set of rational numbers whose denominator is not divisible by p. Let fPn(x)g be the Legendre polynomials. In this paper we mainly show that for m;n;t 2 Rp with m 6· 0 (mod p), P[ p ](t) · i ‡ 3 p · pi1 X x=0 ‡ x 3 i 3x + 2t p

Legendre polynomials and supercongruences

Let be any prime, and let and be nonnegative integers. Let and . We establish the congruence

We also present an application of the first congruence to Bernoulli polynomials and apply the second congruence to show that a -adic order bound given by the authors in a previous paper can be attained when .

Combinatorial congruences modulo prime powers

Connections between p=x2+3y2 and Franel numbers

Dirichlet's L-functions are natural extensions of the Riemann zeta function. In this paper we rst give a brief survey of Ap ery-like series for some special values of the zeta function and certain L-functions. Then, we establish two theorems on transfor- mations of certain kinds of congruences. Motivated by the results and based on our computation, we pose 48 new conjectural series (most of which involve harmonic numbers) for such special values and related constants. For example, we conjecture that 1
