In 1769, Euler proved the following result $$ \int_0^{\frac\pi2}\log(\sin \theta) d\theta=-\frac\pi2 \log2. $$ In this paper, as a generalization, we evaluate the definite integrals $$ \int_0^x…

In this paper, we study the multiple integral $ \displaystyle I= \int_0^1 \int_0^1 \dots \int_0^1 f(x_1+x_2 + \dots +x_n) \, dx_1 \, dx_2 \, \dots \, dx_n$. A general formula of $I$ is presented. As an application, the integral $I$ with…

In this article we provide a motivation for studying integrals $\displaystyle \int_0^{\frac{\pi}{2}}x\cos^mx~dx$, $m\in \mathbb{N}$. We demonstrate several properties of this class of integrals and show that it is closely related to the…

In this note, we show that the values of integrals of the log-tangent function with respect to any square-integrable function on $\left[0 , \frac{\pi}{2} \right]$ may be determined by a finite or infinite sum involving the Riemann…

We prove a recent conjecture, due to Vigren and Dieckmann, about an explicit triple sum formula for a series from Ramanujan's Notebooks. We shall give two proofs: the first one is by evaluation and based on the identity \begin{equation*}…

Let $F$ and $G$ be linear recurrences over a number field $\mathbb{K}$, and let $\mathfrak{R}$ be a finitely generated subring of $\mathbb{K}$. Furthermore, let $\mathcal{N}$ be the set of positive integers $n$ such that $G(n) \neq 0$ and…

An integer $a$ is said to be regular (mod $r$) if there exists an integer $x$ such that $a^2x\equiv a\pmod{r}$. In this paper we introduce an analogue of Ramanujan's sum with respect to regular integers (mod $r$) and show that this analogue…

This article provides a proof that the Ramanujan's Inequality given by, $$\pi(x)^2 < \frac{e x}{\log x} \pi\Big(\frac{x}{e}\Big)$$ holds unconditionally for every $x\geq \exp(43.5102147)$. In case for an alternate proof of the result stated…

In his book entitled Divergent Series, Hardy makes various references to divergent series of sine functions. In this paper, we show how such series may be treated rigorously and, in particular, we revisit Entry 17(v) in Ramanujan's…

The Moll-Arias de Reyna integral [1] $$\int_0^{\infty}\frac{dx}{(x^2+1)^{3/2}}\frac{1}{\sqrt{\varphi(x)+\sqrt{\varphi(x)}}}$$ $$\varphi(x)=1+\frac{4}{3}\left(\frac{x}{x^2+1}\right)^2$$ is generalised and several values are given.

We consider the integral $\int_0^\infty\left(\frac{\sin x}{x}\right)^n\;dx$ as a function of the positive integer $n$. We show that there exists an asymptotic series in $\frac{1}{n}$ and compute the first terms of this series together with…

As an application of Cauchy's Theorem we prove that $\int_0^1\arctan\left({\arctanh x-\arctan x\over \pi+\arctanh x-\arctan x}\right) {dx\over x}= {\pi\over 8}\log{\pi^2\over 8}$ answering a question first posted in Mathematics Stack…

Corollary 2, Entry 9, Chapter 4 of Ramanujan's first notebook claims that a certain sum is asymptotic to ln(x) + gamma, where x is a real variable in the sum and gamma is Euler's constant. Ramanujan's claim is known to be correct for the…

The Dirichlet lambda function $\lambda(s)$ is defined for $\mathrm{Re}(s) > 1$ by \[ \lambda(s) = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} \frac{1}{(2n+1)^s}. \] This function was initially studied by Euler on the real line, where he denoted it by $N(s)$. In…

We prove that $$\int_0^1\frac{-\log f(x)}xdx=\frac{\pi^2}{3ab}$$ where $f(x)$ is the decreasing function that satisfies $f^a-f^b=x^a-x^b$, for $0<a<b$. When $a$ is an integer and $b=a+1$ we deduce several combinatorial results. These…

We show the following bounds on the prime counting function $\pi(x)$ using principles from analytic number theory, giving an estimate: $$2 \log 2 \geq \limsup_{x \rightarrow \infty} \frac{\pi(x)}{x / \log x} \geq \liminf_{x \rightarrow…

A new sums-of-tails identity involving two parameters $b$ and $d$ is obtained and is used to derive more results of similar type. One of Ramanujan's sums-of-tails identities from the Lost Notebook is shown to be a special case of our…
