In this article, we define a special function called the Bigamma function. It provides a generalization of Euler's gamma function. Several algebraic properties of this new function are studied. In particular, results linking this new…
We define the zeta function of a finite category. And we propose a conjecture which states the relationship between the Euler characteristic of finite categories and the zeta function of finite categories. This conjecture is verified when…

This paper does exactly what the title says it does. It expands the given series to arrive at the familiar "pentagonal number" expansion, also known as the pentagonal number theorem, and recalls its application to partition numbers. The…
We define an axiomatic class of L-functions extending the Selberg class. We show in particular that one can recast the traditional conditions of an Euler product, analytic continuation and functional equation in terms of distributional…
We present another expression to regularize the Euler product representation of the Riemann zeta function. % in this paper. The expression itself is essentially same as the usual Euler product that is the infinite product, but we define a…
The Euler characteristic of a cell complex is often thought of as the alternating sum of the number of cells of each dimension. When the complex is infinite, the sum diverges. Nevertheless, it can sometimes be evaluated; in particular, this…
The multiple gamma function $\Gamma_n$, defined by a recurrence-functional equation as a generalization of the Euler gamma function, was originally introduced by Kinkelin, Glaisher, and Barnes around 1900. Today, due to the pioneer work of…
This paper is devoted to the proof Gauss' divergence theorem in the framework of "ultrafunctions". They are a new kind of generalized functions, which have been introduced recently [2] and developed in [4], [5] and [6]. Their peculiarity is…
We introduce an algorithm to compute the functions belonging to a suitable set ${\mathscr F}$ defined as follows: $f\in {\mathscr F}$ means that $f(s,x)$, $s\in A\subset {\mathbb R}$ being fixed and $x>0$, has a power series expansion…
We review Euler's idea on the Gammafunction. We will explain, how Euler obtained them and how Euler's ideas anticipate more modern approaches and theories. Furthermore, some questions asked by Euler are answered.
We say that a function $\alpha(x)$ belongs to the set ${\bf A}^{(\gamma)}$ if it has an asymptotic expansion of the form $\alpha(x)\sim \sum^\infty_{i=0}\alpha_ix^{\gamma-i}$ as $x\to\infty$, which can be differentiated term by term…

We introduce a family of regularized functionals $g_n(x)$ that generalize the Euler--Mascheroni constant $\gamma$. They arise from a weighted regularization of Clausen-type trigonometric sums, and admit explicit integral representations,…
Euler gives a long introduction, giving all the arguments for and against the use of divergent series in calculus and then gives his own definition of the sum of a diverging series. Then in the second half of this paper he evaluates the the…
We introduce Omega functions that generalize Euler Gamma functions and study the functional difference equation they satisfy. Under a natural exponential growth condition, the vector space of meromorphic solutions of the functional equation…

Finite Euler product is known to be one of the classical zeta functions in number theory. In [1], [2] and [3], we have introduced some multivariable zeta functions and studied their definable probability distributions on R^d. They include…
In this note we explore the relationship between the operation of convolution of functions and the Eulerian integrals. This approach allow us to obtain some expressions for the convolution of a certain class of functions in terms of the…
The Euler characteristic of a finite category is defined and shown to be compatible with Euler characteristics of other types of object, including orbifolds. A formula for the cardinality of the colimit of a diagram of sets is proved,…
