A Lambert series generating function is a special series summed over an arithmetic function $f$ defined by \[ L_f(q) := \sum_{n \geq 1} \frac{f(n) q^n}{1-q^n} = \sum_{m \geq 1} (f \ast 1)(m) q^m. \] Because of the way the left-hand-side…

For positive integers m and n, denote S(m,n) as the associated Stirling number of the second kind and let z be a complex variable. In this paper, we introduce the Stirling functions S(m,n,z) which satisfy S(m,n,z) = S(m,n) for any z which…

This paper is about the positive part $U_q^+$ of the $q$-deformed enveloping algebra $U_q(\widehat{\mathfrak{sl}}_2)$. The literature contains at least three PBW bases for $U_q^+$, called the Damiani, the Beck, and the alternating PBW…

To obtain the Dirichlet series for complex powers of the Riemann zeta function, we define and study the basic properties of a sequence of polynomials that, used as coefficients of the respective terms of the Dirichlet series of the Riemann…

Let $\Gamma\subset PSL_2(\mathbb{R})$ be a Fuchsian group of the first kind which has a cusp $i\infty$ of width one. In this paper, we first consider a generating function formed with the Niebur--Poincar\'e series $\{F_{m,s}(\tau)\}_{m\ge…

We consider two sequences $a(n)$ and $b(n)$, $1\leq n<\infty$, generated by Dirichlet series $$\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{a(n)}{\lambda_n^{s}}\qquad\text{and}\qquad \sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{b(n)}{\mu_n^{s}},$$ satisfying a familiar functional…

We consider two sequences $a(n)$ and $b(n)$, $1\leq n<\infty$, generated by Dirichlet series of the forms $$\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{a(n)}{\lambda_n^{s}}\qquad\text{and}\qquad \sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{b(n)}{\mu_n^{s}},$$ satisfying a…

The Euler product formula relates Dirichlet $L(s,\chi)$ functions to an infinite product over primes, and is known to be valid for $\Re (s) >1$, where it converges absolutely. We provide arguments that the formula is actually valid for $\Re…

We begin by introducing an interesting class of functions, known as the Schemmel totient functions, that generalizes the Euler totient function. For each Schemmel totient function $L_m$, we define two new functions, denoted $R_m$ and $H_m$,…

Translation of "Methodus succincta summas serierum infinitarum per formulas differentiales investigandi" (1780). Euler wants to represent some given series of functions S(x)=X(x)+X(x+1)+X(x+2)+etc. in a different way. He writes S as a…

This paper discusses a few main topics in Number Theory, such as the M\"{o}bius function and its generalization, leading up to the derivation of neat power series for the prime counting function, $\pi(x)$, and the prime-power counting…

Let $$\lambda(s)=\sum_{n=0}^\infty\frac1{(2n+1)^s},$$ $$\beta(s)=\sum_{n=0}^\infty\frac{(-1)^{n}}{(2n+1)^s},$$ and $$\eta(s)=\sum_{n=1}^\infty\frac{(-1)^{n-1}}{n^s}$$ be the Dirichlet lambda function, its alternating form, and the Dirichlet…

In this paper, we show that the regularized determinants of some Dirichlet series are multiplicative. As an application, we give generalizations of Lerch's formula for the classical gamma function and we determine the sum of some Dirichlet…

We focus on the generating series for the rational special values of Pellarin's $L$-series in $1 \leq s \leq 2(q-1)$ indeterminates, and using interpolation polynomials we prove a closed form formula relating this generating series to the…

The exponential generating function for the sequence A143405 in the OEIS is exp(exp(x)*(exp(x) - 1)). This paper analyzes the more general generating function exp(m*exp(b*x) + r*exp(d*x) + s) and provides asymptotics for the sequences…

We attach a certain $n \times n$ matrix $A_n$ to the Dirichlet series $L(s)=\sum_{k=1}^{\infty}a_k k^{-s}$. We study the determinant, characteristic polynomial, eigenvalues, and eigenvectors of these matrices. The determinant of $A_n$ can…

For a possibly singular complex variety $X$, generating functions of total "orbifold Chern homology classes" of symmetric products $S^nX$ are given. Those are very natural "Chern class versions" (in the sense of Schwartz-MacPherson) of…

Consider the set of all powers $\text{GL}(n ,q)^M = \{x^M \mid x\in \text{GL}(n, q)\}$ for an integer $M\geq 2$. In this article, we aim to enumerate the regular, regular semisimple and semisimple elements as well as conjugacy classes in…

In this paper we obtain a mean value theorem for a general Dirichlet series $f(s)= \sum_{j=1}^\infty a_j n_j^{-s}$ with positive coefficients for which the counting function $A(x) = \sum_{n_{j}\le x}a_{j}$ satisfies $A(x)=\rho x +…

A generating function is given for the number, $E(l,k)$, of irreducible $k$-fold Euler sums, with all possible alternations of sign, and exponents summing to $l$. Its form is remarkably simple: $\sum_n E(k+2n,k) x^n = \sum_{d|k}\mu(d)…
