In a recent paper [5] a smooth function f : [0; 1] --> R with all derivatives vanishing at 0 has been considered and a global condition, showing that f is indeed identically 0, has been presented. The purpose of this note is to replace the…
This work develops an analytic framework for the study of the $\zeta$-function associated with general sequences of complex numbers. We show that a contour integral representation, commonly used when studying spectral $\zeta$-functions…
By using the associated and restricted Stirling numbers of the second kind, we give some generalizations of the poly-Bernoulli numbers. We also study their arithmetical and combinatorial properties. As an application, at the end of the…
For Hurwitz Zeta function,we consider its Taylor series expansion about various points as an analytic function of second variable in appropriate discs.We show that these Taylor are all polynomials in second variable for a non positive…
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 investigate random Bernoulli convolutions, namely, probability measures given by the infinite convolution \[ \mu_\omega = \mathop{\circledast}_{k=1}^{\infty} \left( \frac{\delta_0 + \delta_{\lambda_1 \lambda_2 \ldots \lambda_{k-1}…
A fully numerical method to calculate loop integrals, a numerical contour-integration method, is proposed. Loop integrals can be interpreted as a contour integral in a complex plane for an integrand with multi-poles in the plane. Stable and…
It is known that the special values of multiple zeta functions at non-positive arguments are indeterminate in most cases due to the occurrences of infinitely many singularities. In order to give a suitable rigorous meaning of the special…
Bieberbach's conjecture was very important in the development of Geometric Function Theory, not only because of the result itself, but also due to the large amount of methods that have been developed in search of its proof, it is in this…
The unique real root of cos(x) = x, recently referred to as the Dottie number, is expressed as an iteral of cosine. Using the derivatives of iterals, it is shown why this number is achieved starting from any real number, when the iterates…
This article deals with applications of Voronin's universality theorem for the Riemann zeta-function $\zeta$. Among other results we prove that every plane smooth curve appears up to a small error in the curve generated by the values…
Summation formulas, such as the Euler-Maclaurin expansion or Gregory's quadrature, have found many applications in mathematics, ranging from accelerating series, to evaluating fractional sums and analyzing asymptotics, among others. We show…
Arzel\`a's bounded convergence theorem (1885) states that if a sequence of Riemann integrable functions on a closed interval is uniformly bounded and has an integrable pointwise limit, then the sequence of their integrals tends to the…
In this paper, we resolve a longstanding open statistical problem. The problem is to mathematically confirm Yule's 1926 empirical finding of "nonsense correlation" (\cite{Yule}). We do so by analytically determining the second moment of the…
Let $\zeta^*(s)=\sum_{n=1}^{+\infty}(-1)^n/n^s$ and $\tau$ the operator defined on the Frechet space of holomorphic functions in $\{s\in \mathbb C :1/2< Re \, s<1\}$ by $\tau f(s)= f(s-2i\pi/\log 2)$. We show that the Riemann Hypothesis is…
We show that integrals of the form \[ \dint_{0}^{1} x^{m}{\rm Li}_{p}(x){\rm Li}_{q}(x)dx, (m\geq -2, p,q\geq 1) \] and \[ \dint_{0}^{1} \frac{\ds \log^{r}(x){\rm Li}_{p}(x){\rm Li}_{q}(x)}{\ds x}dx, (p,q,r\geq 1) \] satisfy certain…
An interplay between the Lambert series and Euler's Pentagonal Number Theorem gives an Euler-type recurrence relation for any given arithmetical function. As consequences of this, we present Euler-type recurrence relations for some…
In the paper, the authors discover an integral representation, some inequalities, and complete monotonicity of Bernoulli numbers of the second kind.
The paper is concerned with the Kontsevich-Zagier formal power series $$ f(q)=\sum_{n=0}^\infty (1-q)... (1-q^n) $$ and its analytic properties. To begin with, we give an explicit formula for the Borel transform of the associated formal…
In this article, we explore a natural extension of the quadratic parametrization introduced in our previous work. By replacing the integer $n$ by $n^s$ ($ s\in\mathbb{R}, s>1$) and allowing the parameters to be real, we obtain for each…
