It is shown how sums of squares of real valued functions can be used to give new proofs of the reality of the zeros of the Bessel functions $J_\alpha (z)$ when $\alpha \ge -1,$ confluent hypergeometric functions ${}_0F_1(c\/; z)$ when $c>0$…

In this paper we present generalisations of Paley-Wiener type theorems to Mellin and (Laplace-)Fourier transforms of rapidly decreasing smooth functions with positive support and log-polyhomogeneous asymptotic expansion at zero. This…
The finite and infinite harmonic sums form the general basis for the Mellin transforms of all individual functions $f_i(x)$ describing inclusive quantities such as coefficient and splitting functions which emerge in massless field theories.…
The Fox $H$-function is a special function which is defined via the Mellin-Barnes integrals and produces, as particular cases, Wright generalized hypergeometric functions, MacRobert's $E$-functions and Meijer $G$-functions, to name but few.…
We generalize our recent construction of the zeros of the Riemann $\zeta$-function to two infinite classes of $L$-functions, Dirichlet $L$-functions and those based on level one modular forms. More specifically, we show that there are an…
We present an unconditional proof that non-trivial zeros of the Riemann Zeta function must lie strictly on the critical line $\text{Re}(s) = 0.5$. By defining a recursive path of Taylor expansions originating from the domain of absolute…
In 1921 Mellin published a Comptes Rendu paper computing the principal root of the polynomial $Z^n + x_1Z^{n_1} + \cdots + x_pZ^{n_p} - 1$ using hypergeometric functions of its coefficients $x_1,...,x_p.$ He used an integral transform…
Trigonometric formulas are derived for certain families of associated Legendre functions of fractional degree and order, for use in approximation theory. These functions are algebraic, and when viewed as Gauss hypergeometric functions,…
We define generalised zeta functions associated to indefinite quadratic forms of signature (g-1,1) -- and more generally, to complex symmetric matrices whose imaginary part has signature (g-1,1) -- and we investigate their properties. These…
Surprisingly, apart from some special cases, simple asymptotic expansions for the associated Legendre functions $P_\nu ^\mu (z)$ and $Q_\nu ^\mu (z)$ for large degree $\nu$ or large order $\mu$ are not available in the literature. The main…
We consider the Lommel functions $s_{\mu,\nu}(z)$ for different values of the parameters $(\mu,\nu)$. We show that if $(\mu,\nu)$ are half integers, then it is possible to describe these functions with an explicit combination of polynomials…
The Mellin transform and several Dirichlet series related with the Riemann zeta function are used to deduce some identities similar to the classical M\"untz formula [4]. These formulas are derived in the critical strip and in the half-plane…
The Mellin transform of fibre integral is calculated for certain isolated singularities of quasihomogeneous complete intersections (especially the unimodal singualrities of the list by Giusti and Wall). We show the property of symmetry…
We prove for L-function attached to an automorphic cusp form for the Hecke congruence group $\Gamma_0(D)$, which is also an eigenfunction of all the Hecke operators, that a positive proportion of its non-trivial zeros lie on the critical…
We investigate the Mellin transforms of \(1/\operatorname{arctanh} x\) and \(1/(\sqrt{1-x^{2}}\,\operatorname{arctanh} x)\), viewed as compactly supported functions on \((0,1)\). These transforms are closely connected with conjectures on…
In this article, we show that the Riemann hypothesis for an $L$-function $F$ belonging to the Selberg class implies that all the derivatives of $F$ can have at most finitely many zeros on the left of the critical line with imaginary part…
We present a Suffridge-like extension of the Grace-Szeg\"o convolution theorem for polynomials and entire functions with only real zeros. Our results can also be seen as a $q$-extension of P\'olya's and Schur's characterization of…
Double integrals that represent matrix elements of the power and logarithmic potentials in the Legendre polynoiomial basis on [-1,1] are found in a closed form. Several proofs are given, which involve different special functions and…
Levinson and Montgomery proved that the Riemann zeta-function $\zeta(s)$ and its derivative have approximately the same number of non-real zeros left of the critical line. R. Spira showed that $\zeta'(1/2+it)=0$ implies $\zeta(1/2+it)=0$.…
