We present criteria for deciding whether a bivariate rational function in two variables can be written as a sum of two (q-)differences of bivariate rational functions. Using these criteria, we show how certain double sums can be evaluated,…
Multiple elliptic polylogarithms can be written as (multiple) integrals of products of basic hypergeometric functions. The latter are computable, to arbitrary precision, using a q-difference equation and q-contiguous relations.
We introduce the $\alpha,\beta$-symmetric difference derivative and the $\alpha,\beta$-symmetric N\"orlund sum. The associated symmetric quantum calculus is developed, which can be seen as a generalization of the forward and backward…
We calculate some infinite sums containing the digamma function in closed-form. These sums are related either to the incomplete beta function or to the Bessel functions. The calculations yield interesting new results as by-products, such as…
We study theta functions of a Riemann surface of genus g from the view point of tau function of a hierarchy of soliton equations. We study two kinds of series expansions. One is the Taylor expansion at any point of the theta divisor. We…
We classify and construct all multiplicity-free plethystic products of Schur functions. We also compute many new (infinite) families of plethysm coefficients, with particular emphasis on those near maximal in the dominance ordering and…
The first part of the paper is devoted to two descriptions of all polynomial tau-functions of the KP hierarchy: by a generalized Jacobi-Trudy formula, and a generalized Giambelli formula. We use the latter formula in the second part to…
The floor and ceiling functions appear often in mathematics and manipulating sums involving floors and ceilings is a subtle game. Fortunately, the well-known textbook Concrete Mathematics provides a nice introduction with a number of…
A higher dimensional analogue of the dispersionless KP hierarchy is introduced. In addition to the two-dimensional ``phase space'' variables $(k,x)$ of the dispersionless KP hierarchy, this hierarchy has extra spatial dimensions…
This paper is concerned with the construction of the polynomial tau-functions of the symplectic KP (SKP), orthogonal KP (OKP) hierarchies and universal character hierarchy of B-type (BUC hierarchy), which are proved as zero modes of certain…
Using the matrix-resolvent method and a formula of the second-named author on the $n$-point function for a KP tau-function, we show that the tau-function of an arbitrary solution to the Toda lattice hierarchy is a KP tau-function. We then…
This thesis is broadly split into two parts. In the first part, simple state sum models for minimally coupled fermion and scalar fields are constructed on a $1$-manifold. The models are independent of the triangulation and give the same…
The purpose this paper is to present a systemic study of some families of multiple q-Euler numbers and polynomials and we construct multiple q-zeta function which interpolates multiple q-Euler numbers at negative integers.
In this paper, we consider the higher Br\'ezin--Gross--Witten tau-functions, given by the matrix integrals. For these tau-functions we construct the canonical Kac--Schwarz operators, quantum spectral curves, and $W^{(3)}$-constraints. For…
Euler's sum formula and its multi-variable and weighted generalizations form a large class of the identities of multiple zeta values. In this paper we prove a family of identities involving Bernoulli numbers and apply them to obtain…
A four-term recurrence relation for squared spherical Bessel functions is shown to yield closed-form expressions for several types of finite weighted sums of these functions. The resulting sum rules, which may contain an arbitrarily large…
We classify the $Q$-homogeneous skew Schur $Q$-functions, i.e., those of the form $Q_{\lambda/\mu} = k \cdot Q_{\nu}$. On the way we develop new tools that are useful also in the context of other classification problems for skew Schur…
This paper explores closed-form expressions for some polylogarithm integrals with integrands containing five parameters. These closed form expressions are given in terms of the Lerch transcendent function, which reduces, in some cases, to…
We derive a formula for the connected $n$-point functions of a tau-function of the BKP hierarchy in terms of its affine coordinates. This is a BKP-analogue of a formula for KP tau-functions proved by Zhou in [arXiv:1507.01679]. Moreover, we…
A rational homogeneous (of degree one) positive real matrix-valued function is presented as the Schur complement of a block of the linear pencil with positive semidefinite matrix coefficients. The partial derivative numerators of a rational…
