We give a general identity relating Eisenstein series on general linear groups. We do it by constructing an Eisenstein series, attached to a maximal parabolic subgroup and a pair of representations, one cuspidal and the other a character,…

We prove an easy but interesting result about the linear independence of multiple zeta values of different weights.

We prove that among 1 and the odd zeta values $\zeta(3)$, $\zeta(5)$, \ldots, $\zeta(s)$, at least $ 0.21 \sqrt{s}/\sqrt{\log s}$ are linearly independent over the rationals, for any sufficiently large odd integer $s$. This is the first…

We give conditions on sequences of positive algebraic numbers $\{a_{n,j}\}_{n=1}^\infty$, $j=1,\dots ,M$ and number field $\mathbb K$ to ensure that the numbers defined by the continued fractions $[0;a_{1,j},a_{2,j},\dots ]$, $j=1,\dots ,M$…

Given r elements in an integral domain over an algebraically closed field such that any two are linearly independent, we show that there is an integer e between 1 and r! such the eth powers of these elements are linearly independent.

In this paper, we consider the indefinite fractional elliptic problem. A corresponding Liouville-type theorem for the indefinite fractional elliptic equations is established. Furthermore, we obtain a priori bound for solutions in a bounded…

We develop a class of integrals on a manifold M called exponential iterated integrals, an extension of K. T. Chen's iterated integrals. It is shown that the matrix entries of any upper triangular representation of the fundamental group of M…

We consider the values at proper fractions of the arithmetic gamma function and the values at positive integers of the zeta function for F_q[theta] and provide complete algebraic independence results for them.

Single scale Feynman integrals in quantum field theories obey difference or differential equations with respect to their discrete parameter $N$ or continuous parameter $x$. The analysis of these equations reveals to which order they…

In this article, we present a new linear independence criterion for values of the $p$-adic polygamma functions defined by J.~Diamond. As an application, we obtain the linear independence of some families of values of the $p$-adic Hurwitz…

We study non-holomorphic modular forms built from iterated integrals of holomorphic modular forms for SL$(2,\mathbb Z)$ known as equivariant iterated Eisenstein integrals. A special subclass of them furnishes an equivalent description of…

In this talk we discuss a class of Feynman integrals, which can be expressed to all orders in the dimensional regularisation parameter as iterated integrals of modular forms. We review the mathematical prerequisites related to elliptic…

Let $r, \,m$ be positive integers. Let $x$ be a rational number with $0 \le x <1$. Consider $\Phi_s(x,z) =\displaystyle\sum_{k=0}^{\infty}\frac{z^{k+1}}{{(k+x+1)}^s}$ the $s$-th Lerch function with $s=1, 2, \cdots, r$. When $x=0$, this is a…

For a lattice \Lambda in the complex plane, let K_{\Lambda} be the field of \Lambda-elliptic functions. For two relatively prime integers p (respectively q) greater than 1, consider the endomorphisms \psi (resp. \phi) of K_{\Lambda} given…

Let $(i,j)\in \mathbb{N}\times \mathbb{N}_{\geq2}$ and $S_{i,j}$ be an infinite subset of positive integers including all prime numbers in some arithmetic progression. In this paper, we prove the linear independence over $\mathbb{Q}$ of the…

In this paper, we present several formulas for both the discrete and fractional iterates of an invertible power series $f$, using a new unifying approach based on umbral calculus. Known formulas are extended, and their proofs simplified,…

This paper studies the non-holomorphic Eisenstein series E(z,s) for the modular surface, and shows that integration with respect to certain non-negative measures gives meromorphic functions of s that have all their zeros on the critical…

It is an open question of Baker whether the numbers $L(1, \chi)$ for non-trivial Dirichlet characters $\chi$ with period $q$ are linearly independent over $\mathbb{Q}$. The best known result is due to Baker, Birch and Wirsing which affirms…

K.T. Chen showed that iterated integrals give comparison isomorphisms between the cohomologies of bar complexes and fundamental group rings. This led to the development of an algebraic-geometric approach to studying periods given by…
