Let $\Lambda$ be the von Mangoldt function and $r_{Q}\left(n\right)=\sum_{m_{1}+m_{2}^{2}+m_{3}^{2}=n}\Lambda\left(m_{1}\right)$ be the counting function for the numbers that can be written as sum of a prime and two squares (that we will…

We construct a two-parameter complex function $\eta_{\kappa \nu}:\mathbb{C}\to \mathbb{C}$, $\kappa \in (0, \infty)$, $\nu\in (0,\infty)$ that we call a holomorphic nonlinear embedding and that is given by a double series which is…

We use the Ramanujan's master theorem to evaluate the integral $$\int_{0}^{\infty}\frac{x^{l-1}}{(1+x)^{m+1}}\log^{n}(1+x)\, dx$$ in terms of the digamma function, the gamma function, and the Hurwitz zeta function.

The paper deals with lower bounds for the remainder term in asymptotics for a certain class of arithmetic functions. Typically, these are generated by a Dirichlet series which involves a product of Riemann zeta-functions of a special form.

A comparison of Landin's form of lambda calculus with Church's shows that, independently of the lambda calculus, there exists a mechanism for converting functions with arguments indexed by variables to the usual kind of function where the…

The sum $c_0(1/k)=-\sum_{m=1}^{k-1}(m/k)\cot(m{\pi}/k)$ is related to the Estermann zeta function. A recent paper computes the first two terms of the large-$k$ asymptotic expansion of $c_0(1/k)$. Using the Poisson summation formula for…

We consider fluctuations of error terms $\Delta(x)$ appearing in the asymptotic formula for a summatory function of coefficients of the Dirichlet series. These are quantified via $\Omega$ and $\Omega_{\pm}$ estimates. We obtain $\Omega$…

Lehmer's totient problem consists of determining the set of positive integers $n$ such that $\varphi(n)|n-1$ where $\varphi$ is Euler's totient function. In this paper we introduce the concept of $k$-Lehmer number. A $k$-Lehmer number is a…

The $p$-th power of the logarithm of the Catalan generating function is computed using the Stirling cycle numbers. Instead of Stirling numbers, one may write this generating function in terms of higher order harmonic numbers.

The function $\epsilon(x)=\mbox{li}(x)-\pi(x)$ is known to be positive up to the (very large) Skewes' number. Besides, according to Robin's work, the functions $\epsilon_{\theta}(x)=\mbox{li}[\theta(x)]-\pi(x)$ and…

Denote by $\mu_a$ the distribution of the random sum $(1-a) \sum_{j=0}^\infty \omega_j a^j$, where $P(\omega_j=0)=P(\omega_j=1)=1/2$ and all the choices are independent. For $0<a<1/2$, the measure $\mu_a$ is supported on $C_a$, the central…

The slowly converging series sum_{k=3}^infinity 1/[k * log k * (log log k)^a] is evaluated to 38.4067680928 at a=2. After some initial terms, the infinite tail of the sum is replaced by the integral of the associated interpolating function,…

One-loop functions with loop masses larger than external masses and momenta can always be expanded in terms of external masses and momenta. The precision requested for observables determines the number of the expansion terms retained in the…

We present a procedure for computing the log-canonical threshold of an arbitrary ideal generated by binomials and monomials. The computation of the log canonical threshold is reduced to the problem of computing the minimum of a function,…
