Let $\theta_3(\tau)=1+2\sum_{\nu=1}^{\infty} q^{\nu^2}$ with $q=e^{i\pi \tau}$ denote the Thetanullwert of the Jacobi theta function \[\theta(z|\tau) \,=\,\sum_{\nu=-\infty}^{\infty} e^{\pi i\nu^2\tau + 2\pi i\nu z} \,.\] Moreover, let…

This note investigates the prime values of the polynomial $f(t)=qt^2+a$ for any fixed pair of relatively prime integers $ a\geq 1$ and $ q\geq 1$ of opposite parity. For a large number $x\geq1$, an asymptotic result of the form $\sum_{n\leq…

We first give a condition on the parameters $s,w$ under which the Hurwitz zeta function $\zeta(s,w)$ has no zeros and is actually negative. As a corollary we derive that it is nonzero for $w\geq 1$ and $s\in(0,1)$ and, as a particular…

For a real polynomial $p = \sum_{i=0}^{n} c_ix^i$ with no negative coefficients and $n\geq 6$, let $\beta (p) = \inf_{i=1}^{n-1} c_i^2/c_{i+1}c_{i-1}$ (so $\beta (p) \geq 1$ entails that $p$ is log concave). If $\beta(p) > 1.45...$, then…

We show that certain sums of products of Hermite-Biehler entire functions have only real zeros, extending results of Cardon. As applications of this theorem we construct sums of exponential functions having only real zeros, we construct…

Let $(a)_\infty = (a; q)_\infty = \prod_{n=0}^\infty (1-aq^n)$. An elegant result of Bloch and Okounkov [BO] states that if $x = e^z$, then $$ \frac{(xq)_\infty (x^{-1}q)_\infty}{(q)_\infty^2}, $$ which appears in various traces in…

Recently, Ono and the third author discovered that the reciprocals of the theta series $(q;q)_\infty^3$ and $(q^2;q^2)_\infty(q;q^2)_\infty^2$ have infinitely many closed formulas in terms of MacMahon's quasimodular forms $A_k(q)$ and…

For a non-negative integer $N$, let $\mathcal{Z}_{N}:=\sum^N_{c = 0} \mathbb{Q} \cdot \zeta(-c,s+c)$, where the right-hand side is the vector space spanned by the Euler-Zagier double zeta functions over $\mathbb{Q}$. In this paper, we show…

Jacobi's $\theta$ function has numerous applications in mathematics and computer science; a naive algorithm allows the computation of $\theta(z,\tau)$, for $z, \tau$ verifying certain conditions, with precision $P$ in $O(\mathcal{M}(P)…

We generalize a number of works on the zeros of certain level 1 modular forms to a class of weakly holomorphic modular functions whose $q$-expansions satisfy \[ f_k(A, \tau) \colon = q^{-k}(1+a(1)q+a(2)q^2+...) + O(q),\] where $a(n)$ are…

For fixed $u$ and $v$ such that $0\leq u<v<1/2$, the monotonicity of the quotients of Jacobi theta functions, namely, $\theta_{j}(u|i\pi t)/\theta_{j}(v|i\pi t)$, $j=1, 2, 3, 4$, on $0<t<\infty$ has been established in the previous works of…

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…

This paper provides a survey of particular values of Ramanujan's theta function $\varphi(q)=\sum_{n=-\infty}^{\infty}q^{n^2}$, when $q=e^{-\pi\sqrt{n}}$, where $n$ is a positive rational number. First, descriptions of the tools used to…

Let $d_{\alpha, \beta}(n)=\sum\limits_{\substack{n=kl \alpha l<k\leq\beta l}}1$ be the number of ways of factoring n into two almost equal integers. For rational numbers $0<\alpha <\beta $, we consider the following Zeta function…

It is known by a formula of Hasse-Sondow that the Riemann zeta function is given, for any $ s=\sigma+it \in \mathbb{C}$, by $ \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} \widetilde{A}(n,s)$ where $$ \widetilde{A}(n,s):=\frac{1}{2^{n+1}(1-2^{1-s})} \sum_{k=0}^n…

By using $q$-Volkenborn integration and uniform differentiable on $\mathbb{Z}%_{p}$, we construct $p$-adic $q$-zeta functions. These functions interpolate the $q$-Bernoulli numbers and polynomials. The value of $p$-adic $q$-zeta functions…

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…
