In this paper, some new results are reported for the study of Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$ in the critical strip $0<Re(s)<1$, such as $\zeta(s)$ expressed in a generalized Euler product only involving prime numbers. Particularly, some…
Experiment plays a decisive role in physics. It is the single source of our understanding of nature. But, during the last century the main accent in theoretical physics has moved toward metaphysics. Some mathematicians/theoreticians try to…
Riemann's hypothesis, formulated in 1859, concerns the location of the zeros of Riemann's Zeta function. The history of the Riemann hypothesis is well known. In 1859, the German mathematician B. Riemann presented a paper to the Berlin…
In this paper, we introduce a class of Dirichlet series defined in terms of the Riemann zeta-function, motivated by the study of their special values, and establish integral representations for these series. We also define an extension of…
In this paper, we give a short elementary proof of the well known Euler's recurrence formula for the Riemann zeta function at positive even integers and integral representations of the Riemann zeta function at positive integers and at…
The renormalization method is specifically aimed at connecting theories describing physical processes at different length scales and thereby connecting different theories in the physical sciences. The renormalization method used today is…
We define a new kind of classical digamma function, and establish its some fundamental identities. Then we apply the formulas obtained, and extend tools developed by Flajolet and Salvy to study more general Euler type sums. The main results…
The exact renormalization group (ERG) is a powerful tool for understanding the formal properties of field theories. By adapting generalized ERG schemes to the flow of wavefunctionals, we obtain a large class of continuous unitary networks,…
Various new identities, recurrence relations, integral representations, connection and explicit formulas are established for the Bernoulli, Euler numbers and the values of Riemann's zeta function. To do this, we explore properties of some…
In usual dimensional counting, momentum has dimension one. But a function f(x), when differentiated n times, does not always behave like one with its power smaller by n. This inevitable uncertainty may be essential in general theory of…
We introduce a one-parameter family of series associated to the Riemann $\zeta$-function and prove that the values of the elements of this family at integers are linearly independent over the rationals for almost all values of the…
Fermat, Leibniz, Euler, and Cauchy all used one or another form of approximate equality, or the idea of discarding "negligible" terms, so as to obtain a correct analytic answer. Their inferential moves find suitable proxies in the context…
The transformations of the sum identities for generalized harmonic and oscillatory numbers, obtained earlier in our recent report [1], enable us to derive the new identities expressed in terms of the corresponding square roots of x. At…
While investigating the generalization of the Chandrasekhar (1943) dynamical friction to the case of field stars with a power-law mass spectrum and equipartition Maxwell-Boltzmann velocity distribution, a pair of 2-dimensional integrals…
We derive new functional renormalisation group flows for quantum gravity, in any dimension. The key new achievement is that the equations apply for any theory of gravity whose underlying Lagrangian $\sim f(R_{\mu\nu\rho\sigma})$ is a…
Renormalization began as a tool to eliminate divergences in quantum electrodynamics but it is now the basis of our understanding of physics at different energy scales. I review its evolution with an eye towards physics beyond the Wilsonian…
In this note we will present how Euler's investigations on various different subjects lead to certain properties of the Legendre polynomials. More precisely, we will show that the generating function and the difference equation for the…
The Riemann hypothesis (RH) is a long-standing open problem in mathematics. It conjectures that non-trivial zeros of the zeta function all have real part equal to 1/2. The extent of the consequences of RH is far-reaching and touches a wide…
We introduce a family of regularized functionals $g_n(x)$ that generalize the Euler--Mascheroni constant $\gamma$. They arise from a weighted regularization of Clausen-type trigonometric sums, and admit explicit integral representations,…
Finite Euler product is known to be one of the classical zeta functions in number theory. In [1], [2] and [3], we have introduced some multivariable zeta functions and studied their definable probability distributions on R^d. They include…
