The aim of the paper is to relate computational and arithmetic questions about Euler's constant $\gamma$ with properties of the values of the $q$-logarithm function, with natural choice of $q$. By these means, we generalize a classical…
In the first part we present results of four ``experimental'' determinations of the Euler-Mascheroni constant $\gamma$. Next we give new formulas expressing the $\gamma$ constant in terms of the Ramanujan-Soldner constant $\mu$. Employing…

Recently, A. I. Aptekarev and his collaborators found a sequence of rational approximations to Euler's constant $\gamma$ defined by a third-order homogeneous linear recurrence. In this paper, we give a new interpretation of Aptekarev's…
We derive hypergeometric formulas for Euler's constant, gamma. A "by-product" of Thomae's transformation is an infinite product for e^gamma involving the binomial coefficients. Alternate, non-hypergeometric proofs use a double integral for…
In this paper we present a method to derive Eulerian continued fractions arising from a sequence of integrals. As examples, through a new derivation, we reproduce classical continued fraction expansions for the natural logarithm, the…
We present here two classes of infinite series and the associated continued fractions involving $\pi$ and Catalan's constant $G$ based on the work of Euler and Ramanujan. A few sundry continued fractions are also given.
Working from definitions and an elementarily obtained integral formula for the Euler-Mascheroni constant, we give an alternative proof of the classical Puiseux representation of the exponential integral.
Theorem 1 Let F:N-->R stand for any function which a) $F$ monotonically weakly increases; b) $F$ tends to infinity; and c) such that $q/F(q)$ tends to infinity. Let Z_F(q) equal the number of divisors of q less than sqrt{F(q)} minus the…
In this paper Euler shows how, if we have recursive functions f,g,h and an infinite sequence A,B,C,... which satisfies fA=gB+hC, f'B=g'C+h'D, f''C=g''D+h''E, f'''D=g'''E+h'''F, etc., where the primes denote an index not a derivative, then…
Following an idea due to Euler, we evaluate the alternating sums of powers of consrcutive integers.
This paper is concerned with the study of the fractional finite sums theory. We present the classes of functions for which it is possible to characterize the constant related to the derivative of fractional sums (denominated by essence of a…
Many Dirichlet series of number theoretic interest can be written as a product of generating series $\zeta_{\,d,a}(s)=\prod\limits_{p\equiv a\pmod{d}}(1-p^{-s})^{-1}$, with $p$ ranging over all the primes in the primitive residue class…
This is a translation of Euler's Latin paper "De fractionibus continuis observationes" into English. In this paper Euler describes his theory of continued fractions. He teaches, how to transform series into continued fractions, solves the…
In this paper, we introduce the polynomial continued fraction, a close relative of the well-known simple continued fraction expansions which are widely used in number theory and in general. While they may not possess all the intriguing…
This paper has two parts. The first part surveys Euler's work on the constant gamma=0.57721... bearing his name, together with some of his related work on the gamma function, values of the zeta function and divergent series. The second part…
We introduce and study finite analogues of Euler's constant in the same setting as finite multiple zeta values. We define a couple of candidate values from the perspectives of a ``regularized value of $\zeta(1)$'' and of Mascheroni's and…
We define a family {$\gamma(P)$} of generalized Euler constants indexed by finite sets of primes $P$ and study their distribution. These arise from partial sums of reciprocals of integers not divisible by any prime in $P$. An apparent…
