This paper introduces a set of finite summation formulas and utilize them to establish various functional relationships involving the multivariable Hurwitz-Lerch zeta function. Additionally, the paper examines several examples of these…

In this paper we establish a new explicit upper and lower bound for the $n$-th prime number, which improve the currently best estimates given by Dusart in 2010. As the main tool we use some recently obtained explicit estimates for the prime…

Let $\omega^*(n)$ be the number of primes $p$ such that $p-1$ divides $n$. Assuming the Elliott--Halberstam Conjecture, we prove a conjecture posted by M. R. Murty and V. K. Murty in 2021 which states that $$\sum_{n\leqslant…

Gilmer has recently shown that in any nonempty union-closed family $\mathcal F$ of subsets of a finite set, there exists an element contained in at least a proportion $.01$ of the sets of $\mathcal F$. We improve the proportion from $.01$…

In this article, we investigate conditional large values of quadratic Dirichlet character sums. We prove some Omega results of quadratic character sums under the assumption of the generalized Riemnn hypothesis, which are as sharp as…

Kummer's function, also known as the confluent hypergeometric function (CHF), is an important mathematical function, in particular due to its many special cases, which include the Bessel function, the incomplete Gamma function and the error…

For a prime $p$ and an integer $u$ with $\gcd(u,p)=1$, we define Fermat quotients by the conditions $$ q_p(u) \equiv \frac{u^{p-1} -1}{p} \pmod p, \qquad 0 \le q_p(u) \le p-1. $$ D. R. Heath-Brown has given a bound of exponential sums with…

Following the approach of Rota and Taylor \cite{SIAM}, we present an innovative theory of Sheffer sequences in which the main properties are encoded by using umbrae. This syntax allows us noteworthy computational simplifications and…

We present a new Schwarz Lemma for bounded domains with Bergman metrics. The key ingredient of our proof is the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality from probability theory.

We verify the conjecture of [CFKRS] for the mean square near the critical point of Dirichlet L-functions for a composite modulus q. We also prove a kind of reciprocity formula when the second moment for a prime modulus is twisted by a…

In the present paper we study, in a mathematically non-formal way, the validity of the Fermat's Last Theorem (FLT) by generalizing the usual procedure of extracting the square root of non convenient objects initially introduced by P. A. M.…

We prove a formula, with power savings, for the sixth moment of Dirichlet L-functions averaged over moduli $q$, over primitive characters $\chi$ modulo $q$, and over the critical line. Our formula agrees precisely with predictions motivated…

In this article, we study the Euler's factorial series $F_p(t)=\sum_{n=0}^\infty n!t^n$ in $p$-adic domain under the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis. First, we show that if we consider primes in $k\varphi(m)/(k+1)$ residue classes in the…

We seek to understand how the technical definition of Lehmer pair can be related to more analytic properties of the Riemann zeta function, particularly the location of the zeros of $\zeta^\prime(s)$. Because we are interested in the…

We offer some new applications of an extension of Abel's lemma, as well as its more general form established by Andrews and Freitas. A nice connection is established between this lemma and series involving the Riemann zeta function.

In many articles on the integral expressions of Mittag-Leffler functions, we have found that whether the integral expression can be used at the origin is still unresolved. In this article we give the applicable conditions and proof. And we…

Let $N$ be a fixed positive integer, and let $f\in S_k(N)$ be a primitive cusp form given by the Fourier expansion $f(z)=\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \lambda_f(n)n^{\frac{k-1}{2}}e(nz)$. We consider the partial sum $S(x,f)=\sum_{n\leq…

The theory of differential equations has an arithmetic analogue in which derivatives of functions are replaced by Fermat quotients of numbers. Many classical differential equations (Riccati, Weierstrass, Painlev\'{e}, etc.) were previously…

This is a sequel to the previous work of the author Yanagihara (2025). Let $\ell$ be an odd prime, let $N \geq 1$ be an integer, and let $\delta \geq 1$ be an $\ell^N$-th-power-free integer. Let $r,s,t>0$ be integers satisfying…

In this paper we obtain number of new equivalents of the Fermat-Wiles theorem that are based on Jacob's ladders. The main of these is the $D$-equivalent that is generated by the Dirichlet's $D(x)$-function.
