We obtain a characterization of generalized Stieltjes functions of any order \lambda > 0 in terms of inequalities for their derivatives on (0,\infty). When \lambda=1, this provides a new and simple proof of a characterization of Stieltjes…

In this paper, we review the basic properties of measures vanishing at infinity and prove a version of the Riemann--Lebesgue lemma for Fourier transformable measures.

The Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$ is defined as the infinite sum $\sum_{n=1}^\infty n^{-s}$, which converges when ${\rm Re}\,s>1$. The Riemann hypothesis asserts that the nontrivial zeros of $\zeta(s)$ lie on the line ${\rm Re}\,s=…

We consider the coefficients in the series expansion at zero of the Weierstrass sigma function \[ \sigma(z) = z \sum_{i, j \geqslant 0} {a_{i,j} \over (4 i + 6 j + 1)!} \left({g_2 z^4 \over 2}\right)^i \left(2 g_3 z^6\right)^j. \] We have…

The cotangent zeta function is a very interesting object, which is related to partial zeta functions and Hecke $L$-functions of real quadratic fields. Its special values at odd integers greater than 1 are explicitly evaluated by Berndt in…

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 prove an analogue of Kronecker's second limit formula for a continuous family of "indefinite zeta functions". Indefinite zeta functions were introduced in the author's previous paper as Mellin transforms of indefinite theta functions, as…

In this article, we give some results on simultaneous non-vanishing and simultaneous sign-changes for the Fourier coefficients of two modular forms. More precisely, given two modular forms $f$ and $g$ with Fourier coefficients $a_n$ and…

A class of Stieltjes functions of finite type is introduced. These satisfy Widder's conditions on the successive derivatives up to some finite order, and are not necessarily smooth. We show that such functions have a unique integral…

For the Minkowski question mark function $?(x)$ we consider derivative of the function $f_n(x) = \underbrace{?(?(...?}_\text{n times}(x)))$. Apart from obvious cases (rational numbers for example) it is non-trivial to find explicit examples…

We prove a conjecture of H.Widom stated in [W] (math/0108008) about the reality of eigenvalues of certain infinite matrices arising in asymptotic analysis of large Toeplitz determinants. As a byproduct we obtain a new proof of A.Okounkov's…

Series of extended Epstein type provide examples of non-trivial zeta functions with important physical applications. The regular part of their analytic continuation is seen to be a convergent or an asymptotic series. Their singularity…

This paper treats the problem of determining conditions for the Fourier coefficients of a Maass-Hecke newform at cusps other than infinity to be multiplicative. To be precise, the Fourier coefficients are defined using a choice of matrix in…

The recurrence for the $k$-Fibonacci polynomials is usually iterated upwards to positive values of $n$ only. When the recurrence is iterated downwards to $n<0$, there are indices where the polynomials vanish identically. This fact does not…

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…

Observing a multiple version of the divisor function we introduce a new zeta function which we call a multiple finite Riemann zeta function. We utilize some $q$-series identity for proving the zeta function has an Euler product and then,…

In this paper we find automorphic functions of coset manifolds with special K\"ahler geometry. We use \zeta-functions to regularize an infinite product over integers which belong to a duality-invariant lattice, this product is known to…

Let $f$ be a normalized primitive Hecke eigen cusp form of even integral weight $k$ for the full modular group $SL(2,\mathbb{Z})$. For integers $j \geq 2$, let $\lambda_{sym^j f}(m)$ denote the $m$th Fourier coefficient of the $j$th…

We prove several old and new theorems about finite sums involving characters and trigonometric functions. These sums can be traced back to theta function identities from Ramanujan's notebooks and were systematically first studied by Berndt…

For a half integral weight modular form $f$ we study the signs of the Fourier coefficients $a(n)$. If $f$ is a Hecke eigenform of level $ N$ with real Nebentypus character, and $t$ is a fixed square-free positive integer with $a(t)\neq 0$,…
