A representation for the Riemann zeta function valid for arbitrary complex $s=\sigma+it$ is $\zeta(s)=\sum_{n=0}^\infty A(n,s)$, where \[A(n,s)=\frac{2^{-n-1}}{1-2^{1-s}} \sum_{k=0}^n \left(\!\begin{array}{c}n\\k\end{array}\!\right)…

The `classical' model for a massive spinning particle, which was recently proposed, is derived from the isotropic rotator model. Through this derivation, we note that the spin can be understood as the relativistic extension of the isotropic…

The function $y=\Phi_\alpha(x)$, the solution of $y^\alpha e^y=x$ for $x$ and $y$ large enough, has a series expansion in terms of $\ln x$ and $\ln\ln x$, with coefficients given in terms of Stirling cycle numbers. It is shown that this…

As is well-known, a generalization of the classical concept of the factorial $n!$ for a real number $x\in {\mathbb R}$ is the value of Euler's gamma function $\Gamma(1+x)$. In this connection, the notion of a binomial coefficient naturally…
