Assuming some pointwise estimates on certain Weyl's sum, we prove the sharp estimates of the mean value associated to the following exponential sum $$ \sum_{n=1}^N e^{2\pi i tn^d +2\pi i xn}\,. $$
We consider finite iterated generalized harmonic sums weighted by the binomial $\binom{2k}{k}$ in numerators and denominators. A large class of these functions emerges in the calculation of massive Feynman diagrams with local operator…
By treating the multiple argument identity of the logarithm of the Gamma function as a functional equation, we obtain a curious infinite product representation of the $sinc$ function in terms of the cotangent function. This result is…
In 1948 Feynman introduced functional integration. Long ago the problematic aspect of measures in the space of fields was overcome with the introduction of volume elements in Probability Space, leading to stochastic formulations. More…
We study the error calculus from a mathematical point of view, in particular for the infinite dimensional models met in stochastic analysis. Gauss was the first to propose an error calculus. It can be reinforced by an extension principle…
This paper presents a reformulation of the Leibniz product rule as a finite sum that expresses the fractional derivative of the product of two differentiable functions. This paper then proves the cases for when the product consists of an…
Let $q=e^{2\pi i\tau}$, $\Im\tau>0$, $x=e^{2\pi i\xi}\in\CC$ and $(x;q)_\infty=\prod_{n\ge 0}(1-xq^n)$. Let $(q,x)\mapsto(q^*,\iota_q x)$ be the classical modular substitution given by $q^*=e^{-2\pi i/\tau}$ and $\iota_q x=e^{2\pi…
We consider two integrals over $x\in [0,1]$ involving products of the function $\zeta_1(a,x)\equiv \zeta(a,x)-x^{-a}$, where $\zeta(a,x)$ is the Hurwitz zeta function, given by $$\int_0^1\zeta_1(a,x)\zeta_1(b,x)\,dx\quad\mbox{and}\quad…
We consider the sums $S(k)=\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\frac{(-1)^{nk}}{(2n+1)^k}$ and $\zeta(2k)=\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{1}{n^{2k}}$ with $k$ being a positive integer. We evaluate these sums with multiple integration, a modern technique. First, we…
The notion of block divisibility naturally leads one to introduce unitary cyclotomic polynomials $\Phi_n^*(x)$. They can be written as certain products of cyclotomic poynomials. We study the case where $n$ has two or three distinct prime…
In the first part, by the first author's work of 1972, an integral representation for an ultraspherical polynomial of higher index in terms of one of lower index and an infinite series was obtained. While this representation works well from…
The Schur limit of the superconformal index of a four-dimensional N = 2 superconformal field theory encodes rich physical information about the protected spectrum of the theory. For a Lagrangian model, this limit of the index can be…
We elucidate the vector space (twisted relative cohomology) that is Poincar\'e dual to the vector space of Feynman integrals (twisted cohomology) in general spacetime dimension. The pairing between these spaces - an algebraic invariant…
We combine two non-perturbative approaches, one based on the two-particle-irreducible (2PI) action, the other on the functional renormalization group (fRG), in an effort to develop new non-perturbative approximations for the field…
Many problems in combinatorial geometry can be formulated in terms of curves or surfaces containing many points of a cartesian product. In 2000, Elekes and R\'onyai proved that if the graph of a polynomial contains $cn^2$ points of an…
In 1947 Nathan Fine gave a beautiful product for the number of binomial coefficients $\binom{n}{m}$, for $m$ in the range $0 \leq m \leq n$, that are not divisible by $p$. We give a matrix product that generalizes Fine's formula,…
In this paper we study the factors of some alternating sums of products of binomial and q-binomial coefficients. We prove that for all positive integers n_1,...,n_m, n_{m+1}=n_1, and 0\leq j\leq m-1, {n_1+n_{m}\brack…
In this paper we compute the 2-adic valuations of some polynomials associated with the definite integral $\int_{0}^{\infty} \frac{dx}{(x^4+2*a*x^2+1)^(m+1)}$
In this paper we present a method to derive Pi(x) and other Arithemtical functions that can be generated by a Dirichlet series by variational principles,we use a variational method to determine the solution for a Fredholm integral equation…
For Z -> b bbar, we calculate all the two-loop top dependent Feynman graphs, which have mixed QCD and electroweak contributions that are not factorizable. For evaluating the graphs, without resorting to a mass expansion, we apply a two-loop…
