Let $\Omega$ be an open set in $\R^d$ $(d > 1)$ and $h(\Omega)$ the Fr\'echet space of harmonic functions on $\Omega$. Given a bounded linear operator $L :h(\Omega)\to h(\Omega)$, we show that its eigenvalues $\lambda_n$, arranged in…
We present two integral representations of the logarithm of the Glaisher-Kinkelin constant. Both are based on a definite integral of $\ln[\Gamma(x + 1)]$, $\Gamma$ being the usual Gamma function. The first one relies on an integral…
In this note we give a short and self-contained proof that, for any $\delta > 0$, $\sum_{x \leq n \leq x+x^\delta} \lambda(n) = o(x^\delta)$ for almost all $x \in [X, 2X]$. We also sketch a proof of a generalization of such a result to…
Let $\lambda$ be an uncountable cardinal such that $2^{< \lambda } = \lambda$. Working in the setup of generalized descriptive set theory, we study the structure of $\lambda^+$-Borel measurable functions with respect to various kinds of…
We give an explicit upper bound for non-principal Dirichlet $L$-functions on the line $s=1+it$. This result can be applied to improve the error in the zero-counting formulae for these functions.
In the paper, after reviewing the history, background, origin, and applications of the functions $\frac{b^{t}-a^{t}}{t}$ and $\frac{e^{-\alpha t}-e^{-\beta t}}{1-e^{-t}}$, we establish sufficient and necessary conditions such that the…
We give explicit upper and lower bounds for $N(T,\chi)$, the number of zeros of a Dirichlet $L$-function with character $\chi$ and height at most $T$. Suppose that $\chi$ has conductor $q>1$, and that $T\geq 5/7$. If…
Let $\Lambda$ be the von Mangoldt function and $(r_G(n) = \sum_{m_1 + m_2 = n} \Lambda(m_1) \Lambda(m_2))$ be the counting function for the Goldbach numbers. Let $N \geq 2$ be an integer. We prove that $$\begin{align} &\sum_{n \le N} r_G(n)…
We define a Carmichael number of order m to be a composite integer n such that nth-power raising defines an endomorphism of every Z/nZ-algebra that can be generated as a Z/nZ-module by m elements. We give a simple criterion to determine…
We prove that at least one of the six numbers $\beta(2i)$ for $i=1,\dots,6$ is irrational. Here $\beta(s)=\sum_{k=0}^\infty(-1)^k(2k+1)^{-s}$ denotes Dirichlet's beta function, so that $\beta(2)$ is Catalan's constant.
Let $a>1$ be an integer. Denote by $l_a(n)$ the multiplicative order of $a$ modulo integer $n\geq 1$. We prove that there is a positive constant $\delta$ such that if $x^{1-\delta}\log^3 x = o(y)$, then $$ \frac1y \sum_{a<y} \frac1x…
Our aim in this article is to obtain the limit of counting function for the Dirichlet eigenvalues involving the m-order logarithmic Laplacian in a bounded Lipschitz domain and to derive also the lower bound.
We present a systematic study of integrals over [0,1] where the integrand is of the form Q(x) log log 1/x. Here Q is a rational function.

For $m,n\in \mathbb{N}$, let $0 < \alpha_i,\beta_j,\lambda_{ij} \leq 1$ be such that $\sum_{j=1}^n \lambda_{ij} = \alpha_i$, $\sum_{i=1}^m \lambda_{ij} = \beta_j$, and $\sum_{i=1}^m \alpha_i = \sum_{j=1}^n \beta_j \leq 1$. We prove that the…
The aim of this paper is to study the $\lambda$-Stirling numbers of both kinds which are $\lambda$-analogues of Stirling numbers of both kinds. Those numbers have nice combinatorial interpretations when $\lambda$ are positive integers. If…
Let $\lambda$ be a real number with $-\pi/2<\lambda<\pi/2.$ In order to study $\lambda$-spirallike functions, it is natural to measure the angle according to $\lambda$-spirals. Thus we are led to the notion of $\lambda$-argument. This fits…
In this paper, we use the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(x)$ and the Bessel zeta function $\zeta_{\mu}(x)$ to study the log-behavior of combinatorial sequences. We prove that $\zeta(x)$ is log-convex for $x>1$. As a consequence, we deduce…
Let $(M,g)$ be a $n-$dimensional, compact Riemannian manifold. We define the frequency scale $\lambda$ of a function $f \in C^{0}(M)$ as the largest number such that $\left\langle f, \phi_k \right\rangle =0$ for all Laplacian eigenfunctions…
It is proved that for any positive number $\lambda$, $1<\lambda<2$; there exists a meromorphic function $f$ with logarithmic order $\lambda$= $\displaystyle\limsup_{r\to+\infty}\frac{\log T(r,f)}{\log\log r}$ such that $f$ has no Julia…
