We present some simple proofs of the well-known expressions for \[ \zeta(2k) = \sum_{m=1}^\infty \frac{1}{m^{2k}}, \qquad \beta(2k+1) = \sum_{m=0}^\infty \frac{(-1)^m}{(2m+1)^{2k+1}}, \] where $k = 1,2,3,\dots$, in terms of the Bernoulli…
Seminal works by Birch and Ihara gave formulas for the $m$th power moments of the traces of Frobenius endomorphisms of elliptic curves over $\mathbb{F}_{p}$ for primes $p \geq 5$. Recent works by Kaplan and Petrow generalized these results…
In this paper, we study the explicit expressions of multiple t-star values with an arbitrary number of blocks of twos of general level. We give an expression of a generating function of such values, which generalizes the results for…
In the paper, the author expresses the difference $2^m\bigl[\zeta\bigl(-m,\frac{1+x}{2}\bigr)-\zeta\bigl(-m,\frac{2+x}{2}\bigr)\bigr]$ in terms of a linear combination of the function $\Gamma(m+1){\,}_2F_1(-m,-x;1;2)$ for $m\in\mathbb{N}_0$…
We prove that there are arbitrarily large values of $t$ such that $|\zeta(1+it)| \geq e^{\gamma} (\log_2 t + \log_3 t) + \mathcal{O}(1)$. This essentially matches the prediction for the optimal lower bound in a conjecture of Granville and…
We present a unified approach which gives completely elementary proofs of three weighted sum formulae for double zeta values. This approach also leads to new evaluations of sums relating to the harmonic numbers, the alternating double zeta…
Using a different approach, we derive integral representations for the Riemann zeta function and its generalizations (the Hurwitz zeta, $\zeta(-k,b)$, the polylogarithm, $\mathrm{Li}_{-k}(e^m)$, and the Lerch transcendent,…
In this work, we derive relations between generating functions of double stuffle relations and double shuffle relations to express the alternating double Euler sums $\zeta\left(\overline{r}, s\right)$, $\zeta\left(r, \overline{s}\right)$…
We present a multivariate generating function for all n x n nonnegative integral matrices with all row and column sums equal to a positive integer t, the so called semi-magic squares. As a consequence we obtain formulas for all coefficients…
In this paper we establish a new summation method by expanding $\prod_{k}(1-\frac{z}{a_{k}})^{-1}$ with two approaches: the Taylor expansion and the infinite partial fraction decomposition. Here we focus on the case when $a_{k}$ is…
The alternating zeta function zeta*(s) = 1 - 2^{-s} + 3^{-s} - ... is related to the Riemann zeta function by the identity (1-2^{1-s})zeta(s) = zeta*(s). We deduce the vanishing of zeta*(s) at each nonreal zero of the factor 1-2^{1-s}…
Based on the framework of Plamen Iliev, multivariate Meixner polynomials are constructed explicitly as Birth and Death polynomials. They form the complete set of eigenpolynomials of a birth and death process with the birth and death rates…
This is a proceedings article reviewing a recent combinatorial construction of the su(n) WZNW fusion ring by C. Stroppel and the author. It contains one novel aspect: the explicit derivation of an algorithm for the computation of fusion…
We consider any cancellative monoid $M$ equipped with a discrete degree map $deg:M\to R_{\ge0}$ and associated generating function $P(t)=\sum_{m\in M}t^{deg(m)}$, called the growth function of $M$. We also introduce, using some towers of…
In this paper, we investigate three general forms of multiple zeta(-star) values. We use these values to give three new sum formulas for multiple zeta(-star) values with height $\leq 2$ and the evaluation of…
Due to their singularities, multiple zeta functions behave sensitively at non-positive integer points. In this article, we focus on the asymptotic behavior at the origin $(0,\dots, 0)$ and unveil the generating series of the asymptotic…
We present a new way to factor the dirichlet convolution for completely multiplicative functions whitch led us to constructing a ring that arise from the operations involved in the factorisation. We will conclude by some identities that was…
Multiple zeta values (MZVs) in the usual sense are the special values of multiple variable zeta functions at positive integers. Their extensive studies are important in both mathematics and physics with broad connections and applications.…
