Nice piece of work!

I'd suggest that you send a copy to Jeremy Avigad, who has formalized big-O
notation for a single variable in Isabelle and who might be interested in
implementing your definition.

You might also try sending it to Knuth, who doesn't read email and doesn't
even read all the unsolicited papers he gets, but who I think would find
your paper interesting. It's the sort of thing I think he would want to put
in TAOCP, though who knows when he'll get around to revising that section
again.
