Friedberg, Hoffstein and Lieman have constructed two related multiple Dirichlet series from quadratic and higher-order $L$-functions and Gauss sums. We compute these multiple Dirichlet series explicitly in the case of the rational function…

Various algebraic properties of Heilbronn's exponential sum can be deduced through the use of supercharacter theory, a novel extension of classical character theory due to Diaconis-Isaacs and Andre. This perspective yields a variety of…

In the first chapter, we will present a computation of the square value of the module of L functions associated to a Dirichlet character. This computation suggests to ask if a certain ring of arithmetic multiplicative functions exists and…

We study word series and extended word series, classes of formal series for the analysis of some dynamical systems and their discretizations. These series are similar to but more compact than B-series. They may be composed among themselves…

In this article, we investigate conditional large values of quadratic Dirichlet character sums. We prove some Omega results of quadratic character sums under the assumption of the generalized Riemnn hypothesis, which are as sharp as…

We investigate Dirichlet-type series generated by representation functions that count the number of ways an integer can be expressed as a sum of 'k' signed higher even powers. By combining generalized theta generating functions with a…

An extension of two finite trigonometric series is studied to derive closed form formulae involving the Hurwitz-Lerch zeta function. The trigonometric series involves angles with a geometric series involving the powers of 3. These closed…

Dirichlet's $L$-functions are natural extensions of the Riemann zeta function. In this paper we first 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…

Let us consider a cyclic extension of a function field defined over a finite field. For a character (non-trivial) of this extension, we calculate, as a linear combinations of products of Jacobi sums, the coefficients of the polynomial given…

We present further results on a class of sums which involve complex powers of the distance to points in a two-dimensional square lattice and trigonometric functions of their angle, supplementing those in a previous paper (McPhedran et al,…

We present some monotonicity results for Dirichlet $L$-functions associated to real primitive characters. We show in particular that these Dirichlet $L$-functions are far from being logarithmically completely monotonic. Also, we show that,…

From an identity connecting a combinatorial sum and Legendre polynomials, we derive closed forms for a number of combinatorial sums. Some of them are obtained via results about the integrals of functions associated with Legendre…

Some special solutions to the multidimensional Lam\'e and Bourlet type equations are constructed in an explicit form.

We prove that two global fields are isomorphic if and only if there is an isomorphism of groups of Dirichlet characters that preserves L-series.

We define, and obtain the meromorphic continuation of, shifted Rankin-Selberg convolutions in one and two variables. As sample applications, this continuation is used to obtain estimates for single and double shifted sums and a Burgess-type…

Using some basic properties of the gamma function, we evaluate a simple class of infinite products involving Dirichlet characters as a finite product of gamma functions and, in the case of odd characters, as a finite product of sines. As a…

We improve a recent result by Shparlinski and Banks related to sums with convolution of Dirichlet characters.

This note gives a few rapidly convergent series representations of the sums of divisors functions. These series have various applications such as exact evaluations of some power series, computing estimates and proving the existence results…
