Based on the framework of the WZ theory, a new evaluation for $\varsigma (2) = \frac{\pi ^2}{6}$ and $\varsigma (4) = \frac{\pi ^4}{90}$ was given respectively, finally, a new recurrence formula for $\varsigma (2k)$ was given.

We prove the new upper bound 5.095412 for the irrationality exponent of $\zeta(2)=\pi^2/6$; the earlier record bound 5.441243 was established in 1996 by G. Rhin and C. Viola.

In this paper we prove the Gromov--Milman conjecture (the Dvoretzky type theorem) for homogeneous polynomials on $\mathbb R^n$, and improve bounds on the number $n(d,k)$ in the analogous conjecture for odd degrees $d$ (this case is known as…

We prove an asymptotic for the number of additive triples of bijections $\{1,\dots,n\}\to\mathbb{Z}/n\mathbb{Z}$, that is, the number of pairs of bijections $\pi_1,\pi_2\colon \{1,\dots,n\}\to\mathbb{Z}/n\mathbb{Z}$ such that the pointwise…

The special values of multiple polylogarithms, which including multiple zeta values, appear some fields of mathematics and physics. Many kinds of their linear relations are investigated as well as their algebraic relations. From the…

We formulate a parametrized uniformly absolutely globally convergent series of $\zeta$(s) denoted by Z(s, x). When expressed in closed form, it is given by Z(s, x) = (s -- 1)$\zeta$(s) + 1 x Li s z z -- 1 dz, where Li s (x) is the…

The sum formula for finite and symmetric multiple zeta values, established by Wakabayashi and the authors, implies that if the weight and depth are fixed and the specified component is required to be more than one, then the values sum up to…

We show that (as conjectured by Lin and Wang) when a Vassiliev invariant of type $m$ is evaluated on a knot projection having $n$ crossings, the result is bounded by a constant times $n^m$. Thus the well known analogy between Vassiliev…

We prove stronger variants of a multiplier theorem of Kislyakov. The key ingredients are based on ideas of Kislaykov and the Kahane-Salem-Zygmund inequality. As a by-product we show various multiplier theorems for spaces of trigonometric…

Around the early 2000-s, Bourgain, Katz and Tao introduced an arithmetic approach to study Kakeya-type problems. They showed that the Euclidean Kakeya conjecture follows from a natural problem in additive combinatorics, now referred to as…

An important component of Ap\'ery's proof that $\zeta (3)$ is irrational involves representing $\zeta (3)$ as the limit of the quotient of two rational solutions to a three-term recurrence. We present various approaches to such Ap\'ery…

We prove a variant of the Mergelyan approximation theorem that allows us to approximate functions that are analytic and nonvanishing in the interior of a compact set K with connected complement, and whose interior is a Jordan domain, with…

We give a short, self-contained proof of two key results from a paper of four of the authors. The first is a kind of weighted discrete Pr\'ekopa-Leindler inequality. This is then applied to show that if $A, B \subseteq \mathbb{Z}^d$ are…

The Bowman-Bradley theorem asserts that the multiple zeta values at the sequences obtained by inserting a fixed number of twos between 3,1,...,3,1 add up to a rational multiple of a power of pi. We establish its counterpart for multiple…

We prove closed-form identities for the sequence of moments $\int t^{2n}|\Gamma(s)\zeta(s)|^2dt$ on the whole critical line $s=1/2+it$. They are finite sums involving binomial coefficients, Bernoulli numbers, Stirling numbers and $\pi$,…

Using Cauchy's Integral Theorem as a basis, what may be a new series representation for Dirichlet's function $\eta(s)$, and hence Riemann's function $\zeta(s)$, is obtained in terms of the Exponential Integral function $E_{s}(i\kappa)$ of…

Lindel{\"o}f's hypothesis, one of the most important open problems in the history of mathematics, states that for large $t$, Riemann's zeta function $\zeta(1/2+it)$ is of order $O(t^{\varepsilon})$ for any $\varepsilon>0$ . It is well known…

In previous work, the second author introduced a topology, for spaces of irreducible representations, that reduces to the classical Zariski topology over commutative rings but provides a proper refinement in various noncommutative settings.…

We obtain estimates for Vinogradov's integral which for the first time approach those conjectured to be the best possible. Several applications of these new bounds are provided. In particular, the conjectured asymptotic formula in Waring's…

In this paper, we give elementary proofs of Zagier's formula for multiple zeta values involving Hoffman element and its odd variant due to Murakami. Zagier's formula was a key ingredient in the proof of Hoffman's conjecture. Moreover, using…
