New sequences of orthogonal polynomials with ultra-exponential weight functions are discovered. In particular, it gives an explicit solution to the Ditkin-Prudnikov problem (1966). The 3-term recurrence relations, explicit representations,…
We construct a family of $q$-series with rational coefficients satisfying a variant of the extended double shuffle equations, which are a lift of a given $\mathbb{Q}$-valued solution of the extended double shuffle equations. These…
In the present note we obtain new results on two conjectures by Csordas et al. regarding the interlacing property of zeros of special polynomials. These polynomials came from the Jacobi tau methods for the Sturm-Liouville eigenvalue…
In 1980, Lusztig introduced the periodic Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials, which are conjectured to have important information about the characters of irreducible modules of a reductive group over a field of positive characteristic, and also…
Stark and Terras introduced the edge zeta function of a finite graph in 1996. The edge zeta function is the reciprocal of a polynomial in twice as many variables as edges in the graph and can be computed in polynomial time. We look at graph…
A two-variable extension of the Bannai-Ito polynomials is presented. They are obtained via $q\to-1$ limits of the bivariate $q$-Racah and Askey-Wilson orthogonal polynomials introduced by Gasper and Rahman. Their orthogonality relation is…
Shuffle algebra has been employed to give a proof of the duality theorem for multiple zeta-star values of height one.
The shuffle product plays an important role in the study of multiple zeta values. This is expressed in terms of multiple integrals, and also as a product in a certain non-commutative polynomial algebra over the rationals in two…
We introduce adjoint cyclotomic multiple zeta values and cyclotomic multiple harmonic values. They are two variants of cyclotomic multiple zeta values, closely related to each other. They arise as key tools for the study of $p$-adic…
Answering problems of Manin, we use the critical $L$-values of even weight $k\geq 4$ newforms $f\in S_k(\Gamma_0(N))$ to define zeta-polynomials $Z_f(s)$ which satisfy the functional equation $Z_f(s)=\pm Z_f(1-s)$, and which obey the…
Inspired by a recent work of M. Nakasuji, O. Phuksuwan and Y. Yamasaki we combine interpolated multiple zeta values and Schur multiple zeta values into one object, which we call interpolated Schur multiple zeta values. Our main result will…
In this paper we give two idelic representations of the multiple zeta values - one using iterated integrals over the finite ideles and the other using iterated integrals over the idele class group. Each of the representations leads to a…
We prove an easy but interesting result about the linear independence of multiple zeta values of different weights.
We give a new proof of the identity $\zeta(\{2,1\}^l)=\zeta(\{3\}^l)$ of the multiple zeta values, where $l=1,2,\dots$, using generating functions of the underlying generalized polylogarithms. In the course of study we arrive at…
This paper draws connections between the double shuffle equations and structure of associators; universal mixed elliptic motives as defined by Hain and Matsumoto; and the Rankin-Selberg method for modular forms for $SL_2(\mathbb{Z})$. We…
Parametrized multiple series are generalizations of the multiple zeta values introduced by Igarashi. In this work, we completely determine all the linear relations among these parameterized multiple series. Specifically, we prove the…
The properties of matrix valued polynomials generated by the scalar-type Rodrigues' formulas are analyzed. A general representation of these polynomials is found in terms of products of simple differential operators. The recurrence…
We describe a relation between Arnold's strange duality and a polar duality between the Newton polytopes which is mostly due to M.~Kobayashi. We show that this relation continues to hold for the extension of Arnold's strange duality found…
Let $\pi$ be a regular algebraic cuspidal automorphic representation of ${\rm GL}_n({\mathbb A}_F)$ for a number field $F$. We consider certain periods attached to $\pi$. These periods were originally defined by Harder when $n=2$, and later…
We employ the fact certain divided differences can be written as weighted means of B-splines and hence are positive. These divided differences include the complete homogeneous symmetric polynomials of even degree $2p$, the positivity of…
