The idea of the metaplectic theta function was introduced by Tomio Kubota in the 1960s. These theta functions are constructed as residues of Eisenstein series and are only known completely in the case of double covers and, up to the…

In this document, as far as the authors know, an approximation to the zeros of the Riemann zeta function has been obtained for the first time using only derivatives of constant functions, which was possible only because a fractional…

In 1978, Apery has given sequences of rational approximations to $\zeta(2)$ and $\zeta(3)$ yielding the irrationality of each of these numbers. One of the key ingredient of Apery's proof are second-order difference equations with polynomial…

In 1978 M\'etivier showed that a differential operator $P$ with analytic coefficients is elliptic if and only if the theorem of iterates holds for $P$ with respect to any non-analytic Gevrey class. In this paper we extend this theorem to…

In [7], a new iterative method for solving linear system of equations was presented which can be considered as a modification of the Gauss-Seidel method. Then in [4] a different approach, say 2D-DSPM, and more effective one was introduced.…
