We study several related problems on polynomials with integer coefficients. This includes the integer Chebyshev problem, and the Schur problems on means of algebraic numbers. We also discuss interesting applications to approximation by…

In this paper a special class of local zeta functions is studied. The main theorem states that the functions have all zeros on the line Re (s)=1/2. This is a natural generalization of the result of Bump and Ng stating that the zeros of the…

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 say that a function f defined on R or Qp has a well defined weak Mellin transform (or weak zeta integral) if there exists some function $M\_f(s)$ so that we have $Mell(\phi \star f,s) = Mell(\phi,s)M\_f(s)$ for all test functions $\phi$…

We introduce higher order variants of the Yang-Mills functional that involve $(n-2)$th order derivatives of the curvature. We prove coercivity and smoothness of critical points in Uhlenbeck gauge in dimensions $\mathrm{dim}M\le 2n$. These…

We strengthen the Weierstrass approximation theorem by proving that any real-valued continuous function on an interval $I \subset \mathbb{R}$ can be uniformly approximated by a real-valued polynomial whose only (possibly complex) critical…

In this contribution we generalize the classical Fourier Mellin transform [S. Dorrode and F. Ghorbel, Robust and efficient Fourier-Mellin transform approximations for gray-level image reconstruction and complete invariant description,…

In 1914, Hardy proved that infinitely many non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function lie on the critical line using the transformation formula of the Jacobi theta function. Recently the first author obtained an integral representation…

This paper studies combinations of the Riemann zeta function, based on one defined by P.R. Taylor, which was shown by him to have all its zeros on the critical line. With a rescaled complex argument, this is denoted here by ${\cal T}_-(s)$,…

This paper investigates the location of the zeros of a sequence of polynomials generated by a rational function with a binomial-type denominator. We show that every member of a two-parameter family consisting of such generating functions…

As for the Fourier transforms of positive and integrable functions supported in the unit interval, we make a list of improvements for P\'olya's results on the distribution of their positive zeros and give new sufficient conditions under…

We present a survey of central developments in the theory of Chebyshev polynomials, introduced by P.~L.~Chebyshev and later extended to the complex plane by G.~Faber. Our primary focus is their defining extremal property: among all…

Motivated mainly by certain interesting recent extensions of the Gamma, Beta and hypergeometric functions, we introduce here new extensions of the Beta function, hypergeometric and confluent hypergeometric functions. We systematically…

In this note we show that for an arbitrary semisimple Lie group and any admissible irreducible Banach representation the Mellin transforms of Whittaker functions extend to meromorphic functions. We locate the possible poles.

Over nearly six decades, the Chebyshev polynomials of a discrete real variable have found applications in spin physics, spin tomography, in the development of operator expansions, and in defining tensor operator equivalents. The properties…

The paper determines all meromorphic functions with finitely many zeros in the plane having the property that a linear differential polynomial in the function, of order at least 3 and with rational functions as coefficients, also has…

The location of zeros of the basic double sum over the square lattice is studied. This sum can be represented in terms of the product of the Riemann zeta function and the Dirichlet beta function, so that the assertion that all its…

The classical criterion of Jensen for the Riemann hypothesis is that all of the associated Jensen polynomials have only real zeros. We find a new version of this criterion, using linear combinations of Hermite polynomials, and show that…

We study the effect on the zeros of generating functions of sequences under certain non-linear transformations. Characterizations of P\'olya--Schur type are given of the transformations that preserve the property of having only real and…

For any $k\geq 1$, this paper studies the number of polynomials having $k$ irreducible factors (counted with or without multiplicities) in $\mathbf{F}_q[t]$ among different arithmetic progressions. We obtain asymptotic formulas for the…
