Our main aim in this paper is to give a foundation of the theory of $p$-adic multiple zeta values. We introduce (one variable) $p$-adic multiple polylogarithms by Coleman's $p$-adic iterated integration theory. We define $p$-adic multiple…

While the definition of a fractional integral may be codified by Riemann and Liouville, an agreed-upon fractional derivative has eluded discovery for many years. This is likely a result of integral definitions including numerous constants…

In this article we obtain, using an expression of the digamma function $\psi(x)$ due to Mikolas, integral representations of the zeta function of odd arguments $\zeta(2p+1)$ for any positive value of $p$. The integrand consists of the…

The Dedekind zeta function of a quadratic number field factors as a product of the Riemann zeta function and the $L$-function of a quadratic Dirichlet character. We categorify this formula using objective linear algebra in the abstract…

In this note we present an example from undergraduate quantum mechanics designed to highlight the versatility of the Dirac $\delta$-function. Namely, we compute the expectation value of the Hamiltonian of a free-particle in a state…

We show for even positive integers $n$ that the quotient of the Riemann zeta values $\zeta(n+1)$ and $\zeta(n)$ satisfies the equation $$\frac{\zeta(n+1)}{\zeta(n)} = (1-\frac{1}{n}) (1-\frac{1}{2^{n+1}-1})…

We prove a Jensen formula for slice-regular functions of one quaternionic variable. The formula relates the value of the function and of its first two derivatives at a point with its integral mean on a three dimensional sphere centred at…

After a brief discussion of elliptic boundary problems and their properties, we concentrate on a particular example: the Euclidean Dirac operator in two dimensions, with its domain determined by local boundary conditions. We discuss the…

In this paper, we show some expressions of certain $q$-multiple zeta-star values at roots of unity. These explicit formulas are expressed by using the determinants or Bell polynomials. Explicit formulas for other types of values can be…

Suppose $p$ is a prime, $t$ is a positive integer, and $f\!\in\!\mathbb{Z}[x]$ is a univariate polynomial of degree $d$ with coefficients of absolute value $<\!p^t$. We show that for any fixed $t$, we can compute the number of roots in…

We introduce and study new versions of polylogarithms and a zeta function on a completion of $\mathbb F_q (x)$ at a finite place. The construction is based on the use of the Carlitz differential equations for $\mathbb F_q$-linear functions.

This paper considers the problem of the valuation for integer numbers of the zeta function and of five other functions which are naturally associated to it. A relatively elementary approach is exposed, which closely connects this still…

We introduce a zeta function counting imaginary quadratic number fields by their class numbers. It is proved that such a function is rational depending only on the eight roots of unity of degrees $1$ and $2$. As a corollary, one gets a…

Partial zeta functions of algebraic varieties over finite fields generalize the classical zeta function by allowing each variable to be defined over a possibly different extension field of a fixed finite field. Due to this extra variation…

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…
