We define the generalized-Euler-constant function $\gamma(z)=\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} z^{n-1} (\frac{1}{n}-\log \frac{n+1}{n})$ when $|z|\leq 1$. Its values include both Euler's constant $\gamma=\gamma(1)$ and the "alternating Euler constant"…

In this paper we consider the functional equation for factorial sum and its particular solutions (Kurepa's function $K(z)$ \cite{Kurepa_71} and function $K_{1}(z)$). We determine an extension of domain of functions $K(z)$ and $K_{1}(z)$ in…

Already in 1734 Euler found a short explicit formula for the value of Riemann zeta function Zeta(s) when the argument s equals a positive integer 2n where n=1,2,3,. No such formula exists for odd positive integer arguments of Zeta. The…

We prove new relations on zeta function at even arguments and Dirichlet $L$ function at odd. The key idea is to make use of the Taylor series and partial fraction decomposition of cotangent and secant functions as we discuss in calculus and…

A representation for the Riemann zeta function valid for arbitrary complex $s=\sigma+it$ is $\zeta(s)=\sum_{n=0}^\infty A(n,s)$, where \[A(n,s)=\frac{2^{-n-1}}{1-2^{1-s}} \sum_{k=0}^n \left(\!\begin{array}{c}n\\k\end{array}\!\right)…

In this paper we treat the classical Riemann zeta function as a function of three variables: one is the usual complex $\adyn$-dimensional, customly denoted as $s$, another two are complex infinite dimensional, we denote it as $\b =…

Recently, Bordell\'{e}s, Dai, Heyman, Pan and Shparlinski in \cite{Igor} considered a partial sum involving the Euler totient function and the integer parts $\lfloor x/n\rfloor$ function. Among other things, they obtained reasonably tight…

Cotangent sums play a significant role in the Nyman-Beurling criterion for the Riemann Hypothesis. Here we investigate the maximum of the values of these cotangent sums over various sets of rational numbers in short intervals.

This paper presents a combinatorial study of sums of integer powers of the cotangent which is a popular theme in classical calculus. Our main tool the realization of cotangent values as eigenvalues of a simple self-adjoint matrix with…

The Kuznecov sum formula, proved by Zelditch in the Riemannian setting, is an asymptotic sum formula $$N(\lambda) := \sum_{\lambda_j \leq \lambda} \left| \int_H e_j \, dV_H \right|^2 = C_{H,M} \lambda^{\operatorname{codim} H} +…
