The two-fold aim of the paper is to unify and generalize on the one hand the double integrals of Beukers for $\zeta(2)$ and $\zeta(3),$ and those of the second author for Euler's constant $\gamma$ and its alternating analog $\ln(4/\pi),$…

A simple proof of Euler's formula which states that the sum of the reciprocals of all natural numbers squared equals $\pi^2/6$ is presented based on the distribution theory introduced by Laurent Schwartz. Additional identities are obtained…

We introduce a family of regularized functionals $g_n(x)$ that generalize the Euler--Mascheroni constant $\gamma$. They arise from a weighted regularization of Clausen-type trigonometric sums, and admit explicit integral representations,…

The generalized group of units of the ring modulo $n$ was first introduced by El-Kassar and Chehade, written as $U^k(Z_n)$. This allows us to formulate a new generalization to the Euler phi function $\varphi(n)$, that represents the order…

In the present paper we generalize the Eulerian numbers (also of the second and third orders). The generalization is connected with an autonomous first-order differential equation, solutions of which are used to obtain integral…

The classical Lerch's formula states the following normalized product: $$\prod_{n=0}^\infty(x+n)=\frac{\sqrt{2\pi}}{\Gamma(x)},\quad \textrm{Re}(x)>0, $$ where $\Gamma(x)$ is the Euler gamma function. In this note, by using Barnes' multiple…

The Euler-Maclaurin formula which relates a discrete sum with an integral, is generalised to the setting of Riemann-Stieltjes sums and integrals on stochastic processes whose paths are a.s. rectifiable, namely, continuous and with bounded…

The Basel problem, solved by Leonhard Euler in 1734, asks to resolve $\zeta(2)$, the sum of the reciprocals of the squares of the natural numbers, i.e. the sum of the infinite series: \begin{equation}…

"V - E + F = 2", the famous Euler's polyhedral formula, has a natural generalization to convex polytopes in every finite dimension, also known as the Euler-Poincar\'e Formula. We provide another short inductive proof of the general formula.…

We define the generalized-Euler-constant function $\gamma(z)=\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} z^{n-1} (\frac{1}{n}-\log \frac{n+1}{n})$ when $|z|\leq 1$. Its values include both Euler's constant $\gamma=\gamma(1)$ and the "alternating Euler constant"…
