We study the Diophantine properties of a new class of transcendental real numbers which contains, among others, Roy's extremal numbers, Bugeaud-Laurent Sturmian continued fractions, and more generally the class of Sturmian type numbers. We…

We present new sharper lower and upper bounds for the non-zero Bernoulli numbers using Euler's formula for the Riemann zeta function. In particular, we determine the best possible constants $ \alpha $ and $ \beta $ such that the double…

We consider upper exponential bounds for the probability of the event that an absolute deviation of sample mean from mathematical expectation p is bigger comparing with some ordered level epsilon. These bounds include 2 coefficients {alpha,…

Let $d_{\alpha, \beta}(n)=\sum\limits_{\substack{n=kl \alpha l<k\leq\beta l}}1$ be the number of ways of factoring n into two almost equal integers. For rational numbers $0<\alpha <\beta $, we consider the following Zeta function…

We investigate the values of the Riemann zeta function at odd integers and the Dirichlet beta function at even integers, by collecting several distinct analytic frameworks converging to these values, thus providing a unifying perspective.…

We prove that for each odd prime p, positive integer alpha, and non-negative integers beta and gamma, the Diophantine equation X^{2N} + 2^{2 alpha} 5^{2 beta} p^{2 gamma} = Z^5 has no solution with X, Z, N in Z^+, N > 1, and gcd(X,Z) = 1.

Write $f_k({\boldsymbol \alpha};X)=\sum_{x\le X}e(\alpha_1x+\ldots +\alpha_kx^k)$ $(k\ge 3)$. We show that there is a set ${\mathfrak B}\subseteq [0,1)^{k-2}$ of full measure with the property that whenever $(\alpha_2,\ldots…
