We show that the analytic continuations of Helson zeta functions $ \zeta_\chi (s)= \sum_1^{\infty}\chi(n)n^{-s} $ can have essentially arbitrary poles and zeroes in the strip $ 21/40 < \Re s < 1 $ (unconditionally), and in the whole…

It is shown that there is an absolute constant $C$ such that any rational $\frac bq\in]0, 1[, (b, q)=1$, admits a representation as a finite sum $\frac bq=\sum_\alpha\frac {b_\alpha}{q_\alpha}$ where $\sum_\alpha\sum_ia_i(\frac…

In this note, we prove the existence of infinitely many zeros of certain generalized Hurwitz zeta functions in the domain of absolute convergence. This is a generalization of a classical problem of Davenport, Heilbronn and Cassels about the…

Some results and conjectures on $Z_2(s) = \int_1^\infty |\zeta(1/2+ix)|^4x^{-s}dx (\Re s > 1)$ are presented. Consequences of these conjectures regarding the eighth moment of $|\zeta(1/2+it)$ and the error term in the fourth moment of…

In this work we prove that certain entire $q$-functions have infinitely many nonzero roots $\left\{ \rho_{n}\right\} _{n=1}^{\infty}$, as $n\to+\infty$ the moduli $\left|\rho_{n}\right|$ grow at least exponentially. Applications to entire…

The set of multiple zeta-star values is a countable dense subset of the half line $(1,+\infty)$. In this paper, we establish some classical Diophantine type results for the set of multiple zeta-star values. Firstly, we give a criterion to…

In this short note we prove a conjecture for the interval $(0,1)$, related to a logarithmically completely monotonic function, presented in \cite{BG}. Then, we extend by proving a more generalized theorem. At the end we pose an open problem…

We prove that every multiple zeta value is a $\mathbb{Z}$-linear combination of $\zeta(k_1,\dots, k_r)$ where $k_i\geq 2$. Our proof also yields an explicit algorithm for such an expansion. The key ingredient is to introduce modified…

We study relations between the multizeta values for function fields introduced by D. Thakur. The product \zeta(a)\zeta(b) is a linear combination of multizeta values. For q=2, a full conjectural description of how the product of two zeta…

Two representations of the Bessel zeta function are investigated. An incomplete representation is constructed using contour integration and an integral representation due to Hawkins is fully evaluated (analytically continued) to produce two…

The Mordell-Tornheim zeta function and the Herglotz-Zagier function $F(x)$ are two important functions in Mathematics. By generalizing a special case of the former, namely $\Theta(z, x)$, we show that the theories of these functions are…

We consider the problem of whether or not certain mock theta functions vanish at the roots of unity with an odd order. We prove for any such function $f(q)$ that there exists a constant $C>0$ such that for any odd integer $n>C$ the function…

We study the properties of a function $\psi(z, q)$ (the generalized polygamma function), intimately connected with the Hurwitz zeta function and defined for complex values of the variables $z$ and $q$, which is entire in the variable $z$…

We give a conditional lower bound on the number of non-trivial simple zeros for the Dedekind zeta function $\zeta_{K}(s)$, where $K$ is a quadratic number field. The conditional result is given by assuming a Lindel\"of on average (in the…

An elementary method of computing the values at negative integers of the Riemann zeta function is presented. The principal ingredient is a new q-analogue of the Riemann zeta function. We show that for any argument other than 1 the classical…

Let $Q$ be a set of primes with relative density $\delta$. We count integers in $[1,x]$ with prime factors all in $Q$ that also have a divisor in $(y,2y]$. We establish the order of magnitude for all $\delta \in (0,1]$. This generalizes the…

While many zeros of the Riemann zeta function are located on the critical line $\Re(s)=1/2$, the non-existence of zeros in the remaining part of the critical strip $\Re(s) \in \, ]0, 1[$ is the main scope to be proven for the Riemann…

As we have shown several years ago [Y2], zeros of $L(s, \Delta )$ and $L^(2)(s, \Delta )$ can be calculated quite efficiently by a certain experimental method. Here $\Delta$ denotes the cusp form of weight 12 with respect to SL$(2, Z)$ and…

We obtain infinite product expansions in the sense of Borcherds for theta functions associated with certain positive-definite binary quadratic and binary hermitian forms. Among other things, we show that every weight 1 binary theta function…

We introduce and study new versions of polylogarithms and a zeta function on a completion of $\mathbb F_q (x)$ at a finite place. The construction is based on the use of the Carlitz differential equations for $\mathbb F_q$-linear functions.
