A remarkable discrete counterpart of the Gaussian function of one continuous variable can be defined by using a Jacobi theta function, that is, as the sum of a convergent series. We extend this approach to Gaussian functions of two…

We consider Dirichlet $L$-functions $L(s, \chi)$ where $\chi$ is a real, non-principal character modulo $q$. Using Pintz's refinement of Page's theorem, we prove that for $q\geq 3$ the function $L(s, \chi)$ has at most one real zero $\beta$…

We give results on zeros of a polynomial of $\zeta(s),\zeta'(s),\ldots,\zeta^{(k)}(s)$. First, we give a zero free region and prove that there exist zeros corresponding to the trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function. Next, we estimate…

Given a positive function $f$ on $(0,\infty)$ and a non-zero real parameter $\theta$, we consider a function $I_f^\theta(A,B,X)=Tr X^*(f(L_AR_B^{-1})R_B)^\theta(X)$ in three matrices $A,B>0$ and $X$. In the literature $\theta=\pm1$ has been…

For each $(m+1)$-tuple ${\bf n}_m=(n_0,n_1,\ldots,n_m)$ of positive integers, the ${\bf n}_m$-derived zeta function $\widehat\zeta_{X,\mathbb F_q}^{\,({\bf n}_m)}(s)$ is defined for a curve $X$ over $\mathbb F_q$. This derived zeta function…

Fix a positive real number $\theta$. The natural numbers $m$ with largest square-free divisor not exceeding $m^\theta$ form a set $\mathscr{A}$, say. It is shown that whenever $\theta>1/2$ then all large natural numbers $n$ are the sum of…

We consider active scalar equations $\partial_t \theta + \nabla \cdot (u \, \theta) = 0$, where $u = T[\theta]$ is a divergence-free velocity field, and $T$ is a Fourier multiplier operator with symbol $m$. We prove that when $m$ is not an…

Using numerical, theoretical and general methods, we construct evaluation formulas for the Jacobi $\theta$ functions. Some of our results are conjectures, but are verified numerically.

We show that if $\rho$ is a non-trivial zero of the Riemann zeta function $\zeta$ then $$2^\rho + \frac{1}{\rho - 1} + 1/2 = \rho \int_{1}^{\infty} {t + 1/2} t^{-\rho-1} dt$$ where, ${x}$ is the fractional part of $x$.

We prove that the classical theta function $\theta_4$ may be expressed as $$ \theta_4(v,\tau) = \theta_4(0,\tau) \exp[- \sum_{p\geq 1} \sum_{k\geq 0} \frac {1}{p} \bigg(\frac {\sin \pi v}{(\sin (k+{1/2})\pi \tau)}\bigg)^{2p}].$$ We obtain…

The note is a continuation of the previous paper ``On q-analogues of Riemann's zeta'' (math.QA/980499). It contains an output of the computer program calculating the zeros of the ``sharp'' q-zeta function.

Let $q_1,q_2,...,q_N$ be the coordinates of $N$ particles on the circle, interacting with the integrable potential $\sum_{j<k}^N\wp(q_j-q_k)$, where $\wp$ is the Weierstrass elliptic function. We show that every symmetric elliptic function…

In this paper, we derive a general formula to express the product of three theta functions as a linear combination of other products of three theta functions. Moreover, we use the main formula to deduce a general formula for the product of…

Unary theta functions have played a significant role in the theory of holomorphic modular forms and modular $L$-functions. A partial theta functions is defined analogously, but the sum is over part of the integer lattice. Such sums fail to…

Ramanujan's last letter to Hardy explored the asymptotic properties of modular forms, as well as those of certain interesting $q$-series which he called \emph{mock theta functions}. For his mock theta function $f(q)$, he claimed that as $q$…

We prove a functional limit theorem in a space of analytic functions for the random Dirichlet series $D(\alpha;z)=\sum_{n\geq 2}(\log n)^{\alpha}(\eta_n+{\rm i} \theta_n)/n^z$, properly scaled and normalized, where…

Let $(M,\omega)$ be a Kahler manifold. An integrable function on M is called $\omega^q$-plurisubharmonic if it is subharmonic on all q-dimensional complex subvarieties. We prove that a smooth $\omega^q$-plurisubharmonic function is…

The Riemann hypothesis states that all nontrivial zeros of the zeta function lie on the critical line $\Re(s)=1/2$. Hilbert and P\'olya suggested a possible approach to prove it, based on spectral theory. Within this context, some authors…
