A generalized Nevanlinna function $Q(z)$ with one negative square has precisely one generalized zero of nonpositive type in the closed extended upper halfplane. The fractional linear transformation defined by $Q_\tau(z)=(Q(z)-\tau)/(1+\tau…

A Nevanlinna function is a function which is analytic in the open upper half plane and has a non-negative imaginary part there. In this paper we study a fractional linear transformation for a Nevanlinna function $n$ with a suitable…

Let $\left(\mathcal{H},\left(.,.\right)\right)$ be a Hilbert space and let $\mathcal{L}\left(\mathcal{H}\right)$ be the linear space of bounded operators in $\mathcal{H}$. In this paper, we deal with $\mathcal{L}(\mathcal{H})$-valued…

We generalize a number of works on the zeros of certain level 1 modular forms to a class of weakly holomorphic modular functions whose $q$-expansions satisfy \[ f_k(A, \tau) \colon = q^{-k}(1+a(1)q+a(2)q^2+...) + O(q),\] where $a(n)$ are…

For a given generalized Nevanlinna function $Q\in N_{\kappa }\left( H \right)$, we study decompositions that satisfy: $Q=Q_{1}+Q_{2}$; $Q_{i}{\in N}_{\kappa_{i}}\left( H \right)$, and $\kappa_{1}+\kappa_{2}=\kappa $, $0\le \kappa_{i}$,…

In this paper, we generalize the classical Nevanlinna theory of algebroid functions from $\mathbb C$ to a complete K\"ahler manifold with either non-negative Ricci curvature or non-positive sectional curvature. As its applications, we…

It is proved that the Epstein zeta-function corresponding to a binary positive definite quadratic form with integer coefficients has a positive proportion of its non-trivial zeros on the critical line.

It is proved that Epstein's zeta-function $\zeta_{Q}(s)$, related to a positive definite integral binary quadratic form, has a zero $1/2 + i\gamma$ with $ T \leq \gamma \leq T + T^{{3/7} +\varepsilon} $ for sufficiently large positive…

Scalar rational functions with a non-negative real part on the right half plane, called positive, are classical in the study of electrical networks, dissipative systems, Nevanlinna-Pick interpolation and other areas. We here study…

We generalize Ramanujan's expansions of the fractional-power Euler functions (q^{1/5})_{\infty} = [ J_1 - q^{1/5} + q^{2/5} J_2 ](q^5)_{\infty} and (q^{1/7})_{\infty} = [ J_1 + q^{1/7} J_2 - q^{2/7} + q^{5/7} J_3 ] (q^7)_{\infty} to…

Factorable surfaces, i.e. graphs associated with the product of two functions of one variable, constitute a wide class of surfaces. Such surfaces in the pseudo-Galilean space with zero Gaussian and mean curvature were obtained in [1]. In…

In this paper, we give several characterizations of Herglotz-Nevanlinna functions in terms of a specific type of positive semi-definite functions called Poisson-type functions. This allows us to propose a multidimensional analogue of the…

It is shown that, if nu >= 1/2 then the generalized Marcum Q function Q_nu(a, b) is log-concave in 0<=b <infty. This proves a conjecture of Sun, Baricz and Zhou (2010). We also point out relevant results in the statistics literature.

Every rational Nevanlinna function in n variables is a Cayley inner function in n + 1 variables with one variable fixed in the upper half-plane.

We study the tau function of the KP-hierarchy associated with an (n,1) curve $y^n=x-\alpha$. If $\alpha=0$ the corresponding tau function is 1. On the other hand if $\alpha\neq 0$ the tau function becomes the exponential of a quadratic…

The singularities of the $\Gamma$ function, a meromorphic function on the complex plane, are known to occur at the nonpositive integers. We show, using Euler and Gauss identities, that for all positive integers $n$ and $k$, $$…

We study the properties of a function $\psi(z, q)$ (the generalized polygamma function), intimately connected with the Hurwitz zeta function and defined for complex values of the variables $z$ and $q$, which is entire in the variable $z$…

We show that for every non-negative integer d, there exist differential equations w''+Pw=0, where P is a polynomial of degree d, such that some non-trivial solution w has all zeros real.

We consider the partial theta function $\theta (q,z):=\sum _{j=0}^{\infty}q^{j(j+1)/2}z^j$, where $(q,z)\in \mathbb{C}^2$, $|q|<1$. We show that for any $0<\delta _0<\delta <1$, there exists $n_0\in \mathbb{N}$ such that for any $q$ with…
