In this paper functions $f:D\to\mathbb{R}$ satisfying the inequality \[ f\Big(\frac{x+y}{2}\Big)\leq\frac12f(x)+\frac12f(y) +\varphi\Big(\frac{x-y}{2}\Big) \qquad(x,y\in D) \] are studied, where $D$ is a nonempty convex subset of a real…

The functional equations of the Riemann zeta function, the Hurwitz zeta function, and the Lerch zeta function have been well known for a long time, and there is great importance in studying these zeta functions. For example, fundamental…

We calculate the partition function of a harmonic oscillator with quasi-periodic boundary conditions using the zeta-function method. This work generalizes a previous one by Gibbons and contains the usual bosonic and fermionic oscillators as…

Generalizations of classical theta functions are proposed that include any even number of analytic parameters for which conditions of quasi-periodicity are fulfilled and that are representations of extended Heisenberg group. Differential…

In this paper we have considered a difference of Jensen's inequality for convex functions and proved some of its properties. In particular, we have obtained results for Csisz\'{a}r \cite{csi1} $f-$divergence. A result is established that…

The classes of n-Wright-convex functions and n-Jensen-convex functions are compared with each other. It is shown that for any odd natural number $n$ the first one is the proper subclass of the second one. To reach this aim new tools…

In the recent paper \cite{SER}, the second author proved a divergence-quasiconcavity inequality for the following functional $ \mathbb{D}(A)=\int_{\mathbb{T}^n} det(A(x))^{\frac{1}{n-1}}\,dx$ defined on the space of $p$-summable positive…

The connection between Lefschetz formulae and zeta function is explained. As a particular example the theory of the generalized Selberg zeta function is presented. Applications are given to the theory of Anosov flows and prime geodesic…

We use an old elementary arithmetic argument to find new upper and lower bounds for Sylvester's denumerant function. These bounds are tight enough to get the asymptotic behavior of the denumerant.

The Hilbert function of a module over a positively graded algebra is of quasi-polynomial type (Hilbert--Serre). We derive an upper bound for its grade, i.e. the index from which on its coefficients are constant. As an application, we give a…

Many aspects of pluripotential theory are generalized to quaternionic $m$-subharmonic functions. We introduce quaternionic version of notions of the $m$-Hessian operator, $m$-subharmonic functions, $m$-Hessian measure, $m$-capapcity, the…
