The modified Bessel functions $K_{\nu}(z)$, or, for brevity, K-Bessel functions, arise at key places in analytic number theory. In particular, they appear in beautiful arithmetic identities. A survey of these arithmetical identities and…
Simple inequalities for some integrals involving the modified Bessel functions $I_{\nu}(x)$ and $K_{\nu}(x)$ are established. We also obtain a monotonicity result for $K_{\nu}(x)$ and a new lower bound, that involves gamma functions, for…
The $\nu$-zeros of the Bessel functions of purely imaginary order are examined for fixed argument $x>0$. In the case of the modified Bessel function of the second kind $K_{i\nu}(x)$, it is known that it possesses a countably infinite…
The z-zeros of the modified Bessel function of the third kind K_{nu}(z), also known as modified Hankel function or Macdonald function, are considered for arbitrary complex values of the order nu. Approximate expressions for the zeros,…

We investigate the asymptotic expansion of integrals analogous to Ball's integral \[\int_0^\infty \left(\frac{\Gamma(1+\nu)|J_\nu(x)|}{(x/2)^\nu}\right)^{\!n}dx\] for large $n$ in which the Bessel function $J_\nu(x)$ is replaced by the…
We obtain new inequalities for the modified Bessel function of the second kind $K_\nu$ in terms of the gamma function. These bounds follow as special cases of inequalities that we derive for the kernel of the Kr\"{a}tzel integral…
Simple upper and lower bounds are obtained for the integral $\int_0^x\mathrm{e}^{-\gamma t}t^\nu I_\nu(t)\,\mathrm{d}t$, $x>0$, $\nu>-\frac{1}{2}$, $0<\gamma<1$. Most of our bounds for this integral are tight as $x\rightarrow\infty$. We…
The modified Bessel function of the second kind K$\nu$ appears in a wide variety of applied scientific fields. While its use is greatly facilitated by an implementation in most numerical libraries, overflow issues can be encountered…
We consider an integral transform given by $T_{\nu} f(s) := \pi \int_0^\infty rs J_{\nu}(r s)^2 f(r) \, dr$, where $J_{\nu}$ denotes the Bessel function of the first kind of order $\nu$. As shown by Walther (2002,…
Simple bounds are obtained for the integral $\int_0^x\mathrm{e}^{-\gamma t}t^\nu I_\nu(t)\,\mathrm{d}t$, $x>0$, $\nu>-1/2$, $0\leq\gamma<1$, together with a natural generalisation of this integral. In particular, we obtain an upper bound…
The modified zeta functions $\sum_{n \in K} n^{-s}$, where $K \subset \N$, converge absolutely for $\Re s > 1/2$. These generalise the Riemann zeta function which is known to have a meromorphic continuation to all of $\C$ with a single pole…
We examine convergent representations for the sum of Bessel functions \[\sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{J_\mu(na) J_\nu(nb)}{n^{\alpha}}\] for $\mu$, $\nu\geq0$ and positive values of $a$ and $b$. Such representations enable easy computation of the…

Generalized integral formulas involving the generalized modified k-Bessel function $J_{k,\nu }^{c,\gamma ,\lambda }\left( z\right) $ of first kind are expressed in terms generalized $k-$Wright functions. Some interesting special cases of…
Using the saddle-point method, we compute an asymptotic, as $y \rightarrow \infty$, for the $K$-Bessel function $K_{r + i t}(y)$ with positive, real argument $y$ and of large complex order $r+it$ where $r$ is bounded and $t = y \sin \theta$…
The paper presents the derivation of the asymptotic behavior of $\nu$-zeros of the modified Bessel function of imaginary order $K_{{\rm i}\nu}(z)$. This derivation is based on the quasiclassical treatment of the exponential potential on the…
