We show how infinite series of a certain type involving generalized harmonic numbers can be computed using a knowledge of symmetric functions and multiple zeta values. In particular, we prove and generalize some identities recently…

The renormalization of MZV was until now carried out by algebraic means. We show that renormalization in general, of the multiple zeta functions in particular, is more than mere convention. We show that simple calculus methods allow us to…

We present a new "integral=series" type identity of multiple zeta values, and show that this is equivalent in a suitable sense to the fundamental theorem of regularization. We conjecture that this identity is enough to describe all linear…

Let $p$ be a sufficiently large prime number, $r$ be any given positive integer. Suppose that $a_1,\,\dots,\,a_r$ are pairwise distinct and not zero modulo $p$. Let $N(a_1,\,\dots,\,a_r;\,p)$ denote the number of…

We state and prove a general summation identity. The identity is then applied to derive various summation formulas involving the generalized harmonic numbers and related quantities. Interesting results, mostly new, are obtained for both…

Hrube\v{s} and Wigderson [HW14] initiated the study of noncommutative arithmetic circuits with division computing a noncommutative rational function in the free skew field, and raised the question of rational identity testing. It is now…

We consider the cyclotomic identity testing (CIT) problem: given a polynomial $f(x_1,\ldots,x_k)$, decide whether $f(\zeta_n^{e_1},\ldots,\zeta_n^{e_k})$ is zero, where $\zeta_n = e^{2\pi i/n}$ is a primitive complex $n$-th root of unity…

In this series of seven papers, predominantly by means of elementary analysis, we establish a number of identities related to the Riemann zeta function. Whilst this paper is mainly expository, some of the formulae reported in it are…

In this paper, we introduce a family of robust estimates for the parametric and nonparametric components under a generalized partially linear model, where the data are modeled by $y_i|(\mathbf{x}_i,t_i)\sim F(\cdot,\mu_i)$ with…

We consider a certain linear combination $S(\mathbf{s},\mathbf{y};I;\Delta)$ of zeta-functions of root systems, where $\Delta$ is a root system of rank $r$ and $I\subset\{1,2,\ldots,r\}$. Showing two different expressions of…

Let $\Sigma \subset \mathbb{C}$ be a compact subset of the complex plane, and $\mu$ be a probability distribution on $\Sigma$. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for $\mu$ to be the weak* limit of a sequence of uniform probability…

In this paper we prove some new identities for multiple zeta values and multiple zeta star values of arbitrary depth by using the methods of integral computations of logarithm function and iterated integral representations of series. By…

We consider finite sequences $s\in D^n$ where $D$ is a commutative, unital, integral domain. We prove three sets of identities (possibly with repetitions), each involving $2n$ polynomials associated to $s$. The right-hand side of these…

In an earlier work, the authors have determined all possible weights $n$ for which there exists a vanishing sum $\zeta_1+\cdots +\zeta_n=0$ of $m$th roots of unity $\zeta_i$ in characteristic 0. In this paper, the same problem is studied in…

For a given support $L \in \mathbb{F}_{q^m}^n$ and a polynomial $g\in \mathbb{F}_{q^m}[x]$ with no roots in $\mathbb{F}_{q^m}$, we prove equality between the $q$-ary Goppa codes $\Gamma_q(L,N(g)) = \Gamma_q(L,N(g)/g)$ where $N(g)$ denotes…

A classical problem in number theory is showing that the mean value of an arithmetic function is asymptotic to its mean value over a short interval or over an arithmetic progression, with the interval as short as possible or the modulus as…

Using a different approach, we derive integral representations for the Riemann zeta function and its generalizations (the Hurwitz zeta, $\zeta(-k,b)$, the polylogarithm, $\mathrm{Li}_{-k}(e^m)$, and the Lerch transcendent,…

The alternating zeta function zeta*(s) = 1 - 2^{-s} + 3^{-s} - ... is related to the Riemann zeta function by the identity (1-2^{1-s})zeta(s) = zeta*(s). We deduce the vanishing of zeta*(s) at each nonreal zero of the factor 1-2^{1-s}…

Let $p,x$ be real numbers, and $s$ be a complex number, with $\Re(s)>1-r$, $p\geq 1$, and $x+1>0$. The zeta function $Z^{\bf\alpha}_p(s;x)$ is defined by $$ Z^{\bf\alpha}_p(s;x) =\frac{1}{\Gamma(s)}\int^\infty_0 \frac{e^{-xt}}…
