In this article, we derive, using Fourier series and multiple derivative of the function $\pi/\sin(\pi x)$, series representations for positive powers of $\pi$. We also show that the Euler-Wallis product can be easily obtained from the same…
The work presents two examples of simple mathematical formulas which are natural nonlinear modifications (one being a generalization) of Gielis' formula. These formulas involve a comparable number of parameters and provide non-Platonic…
We extend A.B. Mingarelli's method for constructing generalized factorials. Our extension uses a pair of arithmetic functions $(x, y)$, where $x$ is superadditive. When $x$ is the identity function, our generalized factorial reduces to…
We give an exact coefficients formula of any infinite product of power series with constant term equal to $1$, by using structures from partitions of integers and permutation groups. This is an universal theorem for various of Binomial-type…

Let $m\ge 1$ be a rational integer. We give an explicit formula for the mean value $$\frac{2}{\phi(f)}\sum_{\chi (-1)=(-1)^m}\vert L(m,\chi )\vert^2,$$ where $\chi$ ranges over the $\phi (f)/2$ Dirichlet characters modulo $f>2$ with the…
We present results for some infinite series appearing in Feynman diagram calculations, many of which are similar to the Euler series. These include both one-dimensional and two-dimensional series. Most of these series can be expressed in…
We give analogs for Euler's constant and ln(4/Pi) of the well-known double integrals for zeta(2) and zeta(3). We also give a series for ln(4/Pi) which reveals it to be an "alternating Euler constant."
We describe an effective method for calculating certain infinite sums, generalizations of the classical Bernoulli polynomials. As shown by Edward Witten in his papers on two-dimensional gauge theories, the correlation functions of…
For $N \in \mathbb{N}$, let $T_{N}$ be the Chebyshev polynomial of the first kind. Expressions for the sequence of numbers $p_{\ell}^{(N)}$, defined as the coefficients in the expansion of $1/T_{N}(1/z)$, are provided. These coefficients…
Guillera has introduced remarkable series expansions for $\frac{1}{\pi^2}$ of convergence rates $-\frac{1}{1024}$ and $-\frac{1}{4}$ via the Wilf-Zeilberger method. Through an acceleration method based on Zeilberger's algorithm and related…
The Euler numbers have been widely studied. A signed version of the Euler numbers of even subscript are given by the coefficients of the exponential generating function 1/(1+x^2/2!+x^4/4!+...). Leeming and MacLeod introduced a…
In this article, we present two integral representations of the logarithm of the Glaisher-Kinkelin constant, relying on two different integral formulations of the so-called Binet function $\mu(x)$. The first one is attributed to Schaar (and…
Transcription into modern notations of the derivation by Stirling and De Moivre of an asymptotic series for $\log(n!)$, usually called Stirling's series. The previous discovery by Wallis of an infinite product for $\pi$, and later results…
We prove that a Poisson-Newton formula, in a broad sense, is associated to each Dirichlet series with a meromorphic extension to the whole complex plane of finite order. These formulas simultaneously generalize the classical Poisson formula…
A great number of articles widen a known scientific result $P(a)$ (such as: a theorem, an inequality, or a math/physics/chemical etc. proposition or formula) by a simple recurrence procedure and using, in the proof, the proposition $P(a)$…
Let d and m be two natural numbers of distinct parities. Let $\pi$ be an admissible irreducible tempered representation of GL(d,F), where F is a p-adic field. We assume that $\pi$ is self-dual. Then we can extend $\pi$ as a representation…
The Stirling approximation formula for $n!$ dates from 1730. Here we give new and instructive proofs of this and related approximation formulae via tools of probability and statistics. There are connections to the Central Limit Theorem and…
The $k$-dimensional generalized Euler function $\varphi_k(n)$ is defined to be the number of ordered $k$-tuples $(a_1,a_2,\ldots, a_k) \in \mathbb{N}^k$ with $1\leq a_1,a_2,\ldots, a_k \leq n$ such that both the product $a_1a_2\cdots a_k$…
