We establish necessary and sufficient conditions implying that the product of $m\geq 2$ Poisson functionals, living in a finite sum of Wiener chaoses, is square-integrable. Our conditions are expressed in terms of iterated add-one cost…
The aim of the paper is to relate computational and arithmetic questions about Euler's constant $\gamma$ with properties of the values of the $q$-logarithm function, with natural choice of $q$. By these means, we generalize a classical…

The purpose of this article is twofold. First, we introduce the constants $\zeta_k(\alpha,r,q)$ where $\alpha \in (0,1)$ and study them along the lines of work done on Euler constant in arithmetic progression $\gamma(r,q)$ by Briggs,…

The $2\times 2$ Schlesinger system for the case of four regular singularities is equivalent to the Painlev\'e VI equation. The Painlev\'e VI equation can in turn be rewritten in the symmetric form of Okamoto's equation; the dependent…

In this paper we present a new mathematical conception based on a new method for ordering the integers. The method relies on the assumption that negative numbers are beyond infinity, which goes back to Wallis and Euler. We also present a…
We prove a generalization of the Wallis product for a sequence of real numbers related to arc lengths of clover curves. Our proof generalizes a common argument given for the original Wallis product using a sequence of definite integrals.
Summation formulae are classical tools in analysis: Taylor-MacLaurin, Euler-MacLaurin, Poisson, Vorono\"i, Circle formulae\ldots We will show how, from a single equation - referred to as the mother-equation - it is possible to unify these…
The multiple gamma function $\Gamma_n$, defined by a recurrence-functional equation as a generalization of the Euler gamma function, was originally introduced by Kinkelin, Glaisher, and Barnes around 1900. Today, due to the pioneer work of…
Based on elementary methods and techniques, the explicit formula for the generalized Euler function $\varphi_{e}(n)(e=8,12)$ is given, and then a sufficient and necessary condition for $\varphi_{8}(n)$ or $\varphi_{12}(n)$ to be odd is…

Let $R$ be a finite ring with unity, $\psi: R \to \mathbb{C}^\times$ be an additive character of $R$, and \( \chi_0 \) be the principal multiplicative character ($i.e.$, $\chi_0(x) = 1 \quad \text{for all } x \in R^\times$), then the Gauss…
