For m>n\geq 0 and 1\leq d\leq m, it is shown that the q-Euler number E_{2m}(q) is congruent to q^{m-n}E_{2n}(q) mod (1+q^d) if and only if m\equiv n mod d. The q-Sali\'e number S_{2n}(q) is shown to be divisible by…

The Mordell-Tornheim zeta function and the Herglotz-Zagier function $F(x)$ are two important functions in Mathematics. By generalizing a special case of the former, namely $\Theta(z, x)$, we show that the theories of these functions are…

This is the second of two coupled papers estimating the mean values of multiplicative functions, of unknown support, on arithmetic progressions with large differences. Applications are made to the study of primes in arithmetic progression…

We study the convolution of functions of the form \[ f_\alpha (z) := \dfrac{\left( \frac{1 + z}{1 - z} \right)^\alpha - 1}{2 \alpha}, \] which map the open unit disk of the complex plane onto polygons of 2 edges when $\alpha\in(0,1)$. We…

In this paper, we introduce a new class of $\ell$-adic sheaves, which we call quadratic $\ell$-adic sheaves, on connected unipotent commutative algebraic groups over finite fields. They are sheaf-theoretic enhancements of quadratic forms on…

We investigate the arithmetic of special values of a new class of $L$-functions recently introduced by the second author. We prove that these special values are encoded in some particular polynomials which we call Anderson-Stark units. We…

We develop a simple algebraic approach to the study of the Weil representation associated to a finite abelian group. As a result, we obtain a simple proof of a generalisation of a well-known formula for the absolute value of its character.…

Kaneko's formula expresses the Fourier coefficients of the elliptic modular $j$-function as finite sums of singular moduli. First published as a short article in 1996, it was presented as a consequence of Zagier's work inspired by Borcherds…

We consider functions $f$ of two real variables, given as trigonometric functions over a finite set $F$ of frequencies. This set is assumed to be closed under rotations in the frequency plane of angle $\frac{2k\pi}{M}$ for some integer $M$.…

We study certain cases of convoluted Fourier coefficients of $GL_n$-automorphic functions. We establish identities that express them in terms of Fourier coefficients related to unipotent orbits. The most general case that is studied is…

This is an announcement of certain rationality results for the critical values of the degree-2n L-functions attached to GL(1) $\times$ SO(n, n) over $\mathbb Q$ for an even positive integer n. The proof follows from studying the rank-one…

We propose a conjecture refining the Stark conjecture St(K/k,S) (Tate's formulation) in the function field case. Of course St(K/k,S) in this case is a theorem due to Deligne and independently to Hayes. The novel feature of our conjecture is…

For $B\subset\mathbb{R}^k$ denote by $\Phi_k(Q;B)$ the number of ordered $k$-tuples in $B$ of real conjugate algebraic numbers of degree $\leq n$ and naive height $\leq Q$. We show that $$ \Phi_k(Q;B) = \frac{(2Q)^{n+1}}{2\zeta(n+1)}…

One purpose of this paper is to construct twisted q-Euler numbers by using p-adic invariant integral on Zp in the sense of fermionic. Finally, we consider twisted Euler q-zeta function and q-l-series which interpolate twisted q-Euler…

We establish a connection between a function and a series representation using a similar technique with that that Euler used to solve the Basel problem. Our result concerns a more general series from which one can obtain $\zeta(2k)$ as a…

A two-parameter generalization of the complete elliptic integral of second kind is expressed in terms of the Appell function $F_{4}$. This function is further reduced to a quite simple bilinear form in the complete elliptic integrals $K$…

Let $k \geq 1$ be a natural number and $f \in \mathbb{F}_q[t]$ be a monic polynomial. Let $\omega_k(f)$ denote the number of distinct monic irreducible factors of $f$ with multiplicity $k$. We obtain asymptotic estimates for the first and…

Let $f$ be a transcendental meromorphic function in the complex plane $\mathbb{C}$, and $a$ be a nonzero complex number . We give quantitative estimates for the characteristic function $T(r,f)$ in terms of $N(r,1/(f^l(f^{(k)})^n-a))$, for…

Elliptic functions are largely studied and standardized mathematical objects. The two usual approaches are due to Jacobi and Weierstrass. From a contour integral which allowed us to unify many summation formulae (Euler-MacLaurin, Poisson,…

For any bent function, it is very interesting to determine its dual function because the dual function is also bent in certain cases. For $k$ odd and $\gcd(n, k)=1$, it is known that the Coulter-Matthews bent function…
