Let $\theta_3(\tau)=1+2\sum_{\nu=1}^{\infty} q^{\nu^2}$ with $q=e^{i\pi \tau}$ denote the Thetanullwert of the Jacobi theta function \[\theta(z|\tau) \,=\,\sum_{\nu=-\infty}^{\infty} e^{\pi i\nu^2\tau + 2\pi i\nu z} \,.\] Moreover, let…

Elsner, Luca and Tachiya proved in 2019 that the values of the Jacobi-theta constants $\theta_3(m\tau)$ and $\theta_3(n\tau)$ are algebraically independent over $\mathbb{Q}$ for distinct integers $m,n$ under some conditions on $\tau$. On…

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.

For almost all tuples $(x_1,\dots,x_n)$ of complex numbers, a strong version of Schanuel's Conjecture is true: the $2n$ numbers $x_1,\dots,x_n, {\mathrm e}^{x_1},\dots, {\mathrm e}^{x_n}$ are algebraically independent. Similar statements…

Let $\{F_{n}\}_{n\geq0}$ be the sequence of the Fibonacci numbers. The aim of this paper is to give explicit formulae for the infinite products \[ \prod_{n=1}^{\infty}\left( 1+\frac{1}{F_{n}}\right) ,\qquad\prod_{n=3}^{\infty}\left(…

We show that two distinct singular moduli $j(\tau),j(\tau')$, such that for some positive integers $m, n$ the numbers $1,j(\tau)^m$ and $j(\tau')^n$ are linearly dependent over $\mathbb{Q}$ generate the same number field of degree at most…

Let $\Theta_{3} (z):= \sum_{n\in\mathbb{Z}} \exp (i \pi n^2 z)$ be the standard Jacobi theta function, which is holomorphic and zero-free in the upper half-plane $\mathbb{H}$, and takes positive values along the positive imaginary axis. We…

In this note we prove algebraic independence results for the values of a special class of Mahler functions. In particular, the generating functions of Thue-Morse, regular paperfolding and Cantor sequences belong to this class, and we obtain…

We consider the partial theta function $\theta (q,z):=\sum _{j=0}^{\infty}q^{j(j+1)/2}z^j$, where $z\in \mathbb{C}$ is a variable and $q\in \mathbb{C}$, $0<|q|<1$, is a parameter. Set $\alpha _0~:=~\sqrt{3}/2\pi ~=~0.2756644477\ldots$. We…

We exploit some properties of the Hurwitz zeta function $\zeta (n,x)$ in order to study sums of the form $\frac{1}{\pi ^{n}}\sum_{j=-\infty}^{\infty}1/(jk+l)^{n}$ and $\frac{1}{\pi ^{n}}\sum_{j=-\infty}^{\infty}(-1)^{j}/(jk+l)^{n}$ for $%…

Consider some non-zero complex numbers $a_i, b_i, c_i, d_i$ with $1 \leq i \leq n$ and the associated classical Lotka-Volterra systems \[ \begin{cases} x' = a_i xy + b_i y \newline y' = c_i xy + d_i y \text{ .} \end{cases} \] We show that…

We produce trigonometric expansions for Jacobi theta functions\\ $\theta_j(u,\tau), j=1,2,3,4$\ where $\tau=i\pi t, t > 0$. This permits us to prove that\ $\log \frac{\theta_j(u, t)}{\theta_j(0, t)}, j=2,3,4$ and $\log \frac{\theta_1(u,…

The series $\theta (q,x):=\sum _{j=0}^{\infty}q^{j(j+1)/2}x^j$ converges for $|q|<1$ and defines a {\em partial theta function}. For any fixed $q\in (0,1)$ it has infinitely many negative zeros. It is known that for $q$ taking one of the…

A set of multivariate polynomials, over a field of zero or large characteristic, can be tested for algebraic independence by the well-known Jacobian criterion. For fields of other characteristic p>0, there is no analogous characterization…

In analogy with the Riemann zeta function at positive integers, for each finite field F_p^r with fixed characteristic p we consider Carlitz zeta values zeta_r(n) at positive integers n. Our theorem asserts that among the zeta values in…

For positive integers $m$ we consider the theta functions $f_m(z):=\sum_{mk+1\text{ square }}q^k$. Due to classical identities of Jacobi, it is known that $$f_4\equiv f_6f_{12}\pmod 2.$$ Here we prove that the only triples $(a,b,c)$ for…

Let $\varphi(\tau)=\eta((\tau+1)/2)^2/\sqrt{2\pi}e^\frac{\pi i}{4}\eta(\tau+1)$ where $\eta(\tau)$ is the Dedekind eta-function. We show that if $\tau_0$ is an imaginary quadratic number with $\mathrm{Im}(\tau_0)>0$ and $m$ is an odd…

Properties of four quintic theta functions are developed in parallel with those of the classical Jacobi null theta functions. The quintic theta functions are shown to satisfy analogues of Jacobi's quartic theta function identity and…

For fixed $u$ and $v$ such that $0\leq u<v<1/2$, the monotonicity of the quotients of Jacobi theta functions, namely, $\theta_{j}(u|i\pi t)/\theta_{j}(v|i\pi t)$, $j=1, 2, 3, 4$, on $0<t<\infty$ has been established in the previous works of…
