Let $I(b,d,k)$ be the subseries of the harmonic series keeping the integers having exactly $k$ occurrences of the digit $d$ in base $b$. We prove the existence of an asymptotic expansion to all orders in descending powers of $b$, for fixed…

We conjecture the full asymptotic expansion of a product of Riemann zeta functions, evaluated at the non-trivial zeros of the zeta function, with shifts added in each argument. By taking derivatives with respect to these shifts, we form a…

We derive an integral expression $G(z)$ for the reciprocal gamma function, $1/\Gamma(z)=G(z)/\pi$, that is valid for all $z\in\mathbb{C}$, without the need for analytic continuation. The same integral avoids the singularities of the gamma…

For given two harmonic functions $\Phi$ and $\Psi$ with real coefficients in the open unit disk $\mathbb{D}$, we study a class of harmonic functions $f(z)=z-\sum_{n=2}^{\infty}A_nz^{n}+\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}B_n\bar{z}^n$ $(A_n, B_n \geq 0)$…

Let $ \{\varphi_i(z;\alpha)\}_{i=0}^\infty $, corresponding to $ \alpha\in(-1,1) $, be orthonormal Geronimus polynomials. We study asymptotic behavior of the expected number of real zeros, say $ \mathbb E_n(\alpha) $, of random polynomials…

Euler's Gamma function $\Gamma$ either increases or decreases on intervals between two consequtive critical points. The inverse of $\Gamma$ on intervals of increase is shown to have an extension to a Pick-function and similar results are…

The sum $c_0(1/k)=-\sum_{m=1}^{k-1}(m/k)\cot(m{\pi}/k)$ is related to the Estermann zeta function. A recent paper computes the first two terms of the large-$k$ asymptotic expansion of $c_0(1/k)$. Using the Poisson summation formula for…

Fix an elliptic curve $E/\Q$, and assume the generalized Riemann hypothesis for the $L$-function $ L(E_D, s) $ for every quadratic twist $E_D$ of $E$ by $D\in\Z$. We combine Weil's explicit formula with techniques of Heath-Brown to derive…

Cotangent sums are associated to the zeros of the Estermann zeta function. They have also proven to be of importance in the Nyman-Beurling criterion for the Riemann Hypothesis. The main result of the paper is the proof of the existence of a…

Motivated by their role for integrality and integrability in topological string theory, we introduce the general mathematical notion of "s-functions" as integral linear combinations of poly-logarithms. 2-functions arise as disk amplitudes…

We consider the asymptotic behavior of the incomplete gamma functions gamma(-a,-z) and Gamma(-a,-z) as a goes to infinity. Uniform expansions are needed to describe the transition area z~a in which case error functions are used as main…

Given a periodic function $f$, we study the almost everywhere and norm convergence of series $\sum_{k=1}^\infty c_k f(kx)$. As the classical theory shows, the behavior of such series is determined by a combination of analytic and number…

This work has two main purposes. On the one side we investigate in this work a question of H. Esnault on congruence formula in a construction of H. Esnault and C. Xu for the number of rational points on the closed fiber of a singular model…

We study the Epstein zeta function $E_n(L,s)$ for $s>\frac{n}{2}$ and determine for fixed $c>\frac{1}{2}$ the value distribution and moments of $E_n(\cdot,cn)$ (suitably normalized) as $n\to\infty$. We further discuss the random function…

We consider pro-isomorphic zeta functions of the groups $\Gamma(\mathcal{O}_K)$, where $\Gamma$ is a unipotent group scheme defined over $\mathbb{Z}$ and $K$ varies over all number fields. Under certain conditions, we show that these…

Let $I(n):=\int_0^1 [x^n+(1-x)^n]^\frac1n dx.$ In this paper, we show that $I(n)= \sum_0^\infty \frac{I_i}{n^i},n\rightarrow \infty$ and we compute $I_i, i =0..5$, obtained by polylog functions and Euler sums. As a corollary, we obtain…

In this paper, we study the zero sets of the confluent hypergeometric function $_{1}F_{1}(\alpha;\gamma;z):=\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\frac{(\alpha)_{n}}{n!(\gamma)_{n}}z^{n}$, where $\alpha, \gamma, \gamma-\alpha\not\in \mathbb{Z}_{\leq 0}$, and…

We introduce a gamma function $\Ga(x,z)$ in two complex variables which extends the classical gamma function $\Ga(z)$ in the sense that $\lim_{x\to 1}\Ga(x,z)=\Ga(z)$. We will show that many properties which $\Ga(z)$ enjoys extend in a…

The basic aspects of both Boltzmann-Gibbs (BG) and nonextensive statistical mechanics can be seen through three different stages. First, the proposal of an entropic functional ($S_{BG} =-k\sum_i p_i \ln p_i$ for the BG formalism) with the…

Counting functions are constructed for sums of integers raised to a fixed positive rational power. That is, given values formed by $u_1^{j/k} + u_2^{j/k} + ... + u_l^{j/k}$, $u_i \in \mathbb{Z}^+$, the number of values less than or equal to…
