In this paper we establish some new congruences involving central binomial coefficients as well as Catalan numbers. Let $p$ be a prime and let $a$ be any positive integer. We determine $\sum_{k=0}^{p^a-1}\binom{2k}{k+d}$ mod $p^2$ for…

We derive explicit expressions for the elements of the $\{ \beta \}$-expansion for the nonsinglet Adler $D_A$-function and Bjorken polarized sum rules $S^{Bjp}$ in the N$^4$LO using recent results by Chetyrkin for these quantities computed…

We connect the sixth power moment of Kloosterman sums to elliptic curves. This yields an elementary proof that $K_u$ with $p\nmid u$ are $O(p^{2/3})$.

We compute the special values of partial zeta function at $s=0$ for family of real quadratic fields $K_n$ and ray class ideals $\fb_n$ such that $\fb_n^{-1} = [1,\delta(n)]$ where the continued fraction expansion of $\delta(n)$ is purely…

We show for even positive integers $n$ that the quotient of the Riemann zeta values $\zeta(n+1)$ and $\zeta(n)$ satisfies the equation $$\frac{\zeta(n+1)}{\zeta(n)} = (1-\frac{1}{n}) (1-\frac{1}{2^{n+1}-1})…

In this short note, we derive an upper-bound for the sum of two comparison functions, namely for the sum of a class K and an extended class K function. To the best of our knowledge, the relations derived in this note have not been…

We derive explicit formulas for some Kloosterman sums on $\Gamma_0(N)$, and for the Fourier coefficients of Eisenstein series attached to arbitrary cusps, around a general Atkin-Lehner cusp.

We consider a Dirichlet series $\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}a_n^{-s}$, where $a_n$ satisfies a linear recurrence of arbitrary degree with integer coefficients. Under suitable hypotheses, we prove that it has a meromorphic continuation to the complex…

A real number is called simply normal to base $b$ if its base-$b$ expansion has each digit appearing with average frequency tending to $1/b$. In this article, we discover a relation between the frequency that the digit $1$ appears in the…

Suppose that $p$ is an odd prime and $m$ is an integer not divisible by $p$. Sun and Tauraso [Adv. in Appl. Math., 45(2010), 125--148] gave $\sum_{k=0}^{n-1}\binom{2k}{k+d}/m^k$ and $\sum_{k=0}^{n-1}\binom{2k}{k+d}/(km^k)$ modulo $p$ for…

We construct a binary linear code $C(O(3,q))$, associated with the orthogonal group $O(3,q)$. Here $q$ is a power of two. Then we obtain a recursive formula for the odd power moments of Kloosterman sums with trace one arguments in terms of…

The Stieltjes constants $\gamma_k(a)$ appear in the regular part of the Laurent expansion of the Hurwitz zeta function about its only polar singularity at $s=1$. We present multi-parameter summation relations for these constants that result…

The functional relation of the Riemann z\^eta function provides us with neither the nature nor the expression of z\^eta at positive odd numbers. From the function $F(z)=\frac{z^{-2n}}{e^z-1}$, we find a functional relation involving…

We introduce a new generalization of Stirling numbers of the second kind and analyze their properties, including generating functions, integral representations, and recurrence relations. These numbers are used to approximate Riemann zeta…

Two classes of ternary bent functions of degree four with two and three terms in the univariate representation that belong to the completed Maiorana-McFarland class are found. Binomials are mappings $\F_{3^{4k}}\mapsto\fthree$ given by…

We consider the Jack--Laurent symmetric functions for special values of parameters p_0=n+k^{-1}m, where k is not rational and m and n are natural numbers. In general, the coefficients of such functions may have poles at these values of p_0.…

Let $1<q<2$ and \[ \Lambda(q)={\sum_{k=0}^n a_kq^k\mid a_k\in\{-1,0,1\}, n\ge1}. \] It is well known that if $q$ is not a root of a polynomial with coefficients $0,\pm1$, then $\Lambda(q)$ is dense in $\mathbb{R}$. We give several…

Let K be a field of characteristic p>0, and let q be a power of p. We determine all polynomials f in K[t]\K[t^p] of degree q(q-1)/2 such that the Galois group of f(t)-u over K(u) has a transitive normal subgroup isomorphic to PSL_2(q),…

Let $t\in\mathbb{N}_+$ be given. In this article we are interested in characterizing those $d\in\mathbb{N}_+$ such that the congruence $$\frac{1}{t}\sum_{s=0}^{t-1}{n+d\zeta_t^s\choose d-1}\equiv {n\choose d-1}\pmod{d}$$ is true for each…

For cofinite Kleinian groups, with finite-dimensional unitary representations, we derive the Selberg trace formula. As an application we define the corresponding Selberg zeta-function and compute its divisor, thus generalizing results of…
