We prove that the special value conjecture for the Zeta function of a proper, regular arithmetic scheme X that we formulated in our previous article [8] is compatible with the functional equation of the Zeta function provided that the…
In this paper we initiate the study of the arithmetical properties of a set numbers which encode the dynamics of unimodal maps in a universal way along with that of the corresponding topological zeta function. Here we are concerned in…
We consider the theory of algebraically closed fields of characteristic zero with multivalued operations $x\mapsto x^r$ (raising to powers). It is in fact the theory of equations in exponential sums. In an earlier paper we have described…
Let $n>1$ be an odd integer. For any primitive $n$-th root $\zeta$ of unity in the complex field. Via the Engenvector-eigenvalue Identity, we show that $$\sum_{\tau\in…
We give a conjectural description of the vanishing order and leading Taylor coefficient of the Zeta function of a proper, regular arithmetic scheme $\mathcal{X}$ at any integer $n$ in terms of Weil-\'etale cohomology complexes. This extends…
We characterize Giuga Numbers as solutions to the equation $n'=an+1$, with $a \in \mathbb{N}$ and $n'$ being the arithmetic derivative. Although this fact does not refute Lava's conjecture, it brings doubts about its veracity.
We prove that a certain conjecture holds true and the conjecture states a relationship between the zeta function of a finite category and the Euler characteristic of a finite category.
In this paper, we give a proof of a conjecture made by Zagier about the inverse of some matrix related to double zeta values of parity $(\mathrm{even},\mathrm{odd})$. As a result, we obtain a family of Bernoulli number identities. We…
In this article, we explore a natural extension of the quadratic parametrization introduced in our previous work. By replacing the integer $n$ by $n^s$ ($ s\in\mathbb{R}, s>1$) and allowing the parameters to be real, we obtain for each…
In this paper we provide a new series representation for the values of Riemann zeta function at integer arguments, namely: $ \zeta(m)=\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{m(-1)^{n-1}\Gamma(1-\omega_{m}n)...\Gamma(1-\omega_{m}^{m-1}n)}{n!n^m}$, where…
In this paper, we give a purely algebraic proof of an identity coming directly from Euler's reflection formula for the gamma function. Our proof uses Hoffman's harmonic algebra and some binomial identities.
We intimate deeper connections between the Riemann zeta and gamma functions than often reported and further derive a new formula for expressing the value of $\zeta(2n+1)$ in terms of zeta at other fractional points. This paper also…
Spencer Bloch and the author formulated a general conjecture (Tamagawa number conjecture) on the relation between values of zeta functions of motives and arithmetic groups associated to motives. We discuss this conjecture, and describe some…
Prime numbers are fascinating by the way they appear in the set of natural numbers. Despite several results enlighting us about their repartition, the set of prime numbers is often informally qualified as misterious. In the present paper,…
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…
This paper presents some considerations about the Goldbach's conjecture (GC). The work is based on elementary results of the number theory and it provides a constructive method that permits, given an even integer, to find at least a pair of…
Inspired by work done for systems of polynomial exponential equations, we study systems of equations involving the modular $j$ function. We show general cases in which these systems have solutions, and then we look at certain situations in…
We present a remarkably simple and surprisingly natural interpretation of the values of zeta functions at negative integers and zero. Namely we are able to relate these values to areas related to partial sums of powers. We apply these…
We study the values taken by the Riemann zeta-function $\zeta$ on discrete sets. We show that infinite vertical arithmetic progressions are uniquely determined by the values of $\zeta$ taken on this set. Moreover, we prove a joint discrete…
We prove certain conjecture holds true for a finite category which has M\"obius inversion. The conjecture states a relationship between the zeta function of a finite category and the Euler characteristic of a finite category.
