We give different integral representations of the Lommel function $s_{\mu,\nu}(z)$ involving trigonometric and hypergeometric $_2F_1$ functions. By using classical results of Polya, we give the distribution of the zeros of $s_{\mu,\nu}(z)$…

We consider a basis of square integrable functions on a rectangle, contained in $R^2$, constructed with Legendre polynomials, suitable, for instance, for the analogical description of images on the plane or in other fields of application of…

This is a reworked version of the paper. An idea that allows us to circumvent limitations of previous approaches is not to apply arithmetic-geometric mean inequality and the second moment asymptotics to the entire segment $[1/2-a/\log…

Necessary and sufficient conditions are given for a negative integer to be a trivial zero of a new type of $L$-series recently discovered by F. Pellarin, and it is shown that any such trivial zero is simple. We determine the exact degree of…

This paper systematically investigates the analytic properties of the ratio $f(s)/f(1-s) = X(s)$ based on the Davenport-Heilbronn functional equation $f(s) = X(s)f(1-s)$. We propose a novel method to analyze the distribution of non-trivial…

A class theorem is presented and proved: the complex Fourier transforms of a certain class of exponential functions have all their zeros on the real line. A class of basis functions is first considered, and the class is then extended via…
