The classical Mason-Stothers theorem deals with nontrivial polynomial solutions to the equation $a+b=c$. It provides a lower bound on the number of distinct zeros of the polynomial $abc$ in terms of the degrees of $a$, $b$ and $c$. We…

Hypergeometric functions and their generalizations play an important r\^{o}les in diverse applications. Many authors have been established generalizations of hypergeometric functions by a number ways. In this paper, we aim at establishing…

Recently, many researchers devoted their attention to study the extensions of the gamma and beta functions. In the present work, we focus on investigating some approximations for a class of Gauss hypergeometric functions by exploiting…

We prove Polya's conjecture of 1943: For a real entire function of order greater than 2, with finitely many non-real zeros, the number of non-real zeros of the n-th derivative tends to infinity with n. We use the saddle point method and…

We extend the Heine-Stieltjes Theorem to concern all (non-degenerate) differential operators preserving the property of having only real zeros. This solves a conjecture of B. Shapiro. The new methods developed are used to describe intricate…

The main result establishes an estimate for the growth of a real meromorphic function $f$ on the unit disc $\Delta$ such that: (i) at least one of $f$ and $1/f$ has finitely many poles and non-real zeros in $\Delta$; (ii)~$f^{(k)}$ has…

In this report, we consider extended real-valued functions on some real vector space. Gerstewitz functionals are used to construct all translative functions. We derive formulas for translative functions which are lower semicontinuous,…

Integral relations with the Cauchy kernel on a semi-axis for the Laguerre polynomials, the confluent hypergeometric function, and the cylindrical functions are derived. A part of these formulas is obtained by exploiting some properties of…

In this paper we announce some results obtained for certain algebraic functions, which we call of cyclotomic type. The main results properly resemble von Staudt-Clausen's theorem and Kummer's congruence for the Bernoulli numbers, and such…

We present explicit expressions for the Mellin transforms of Laguerre and Hermite functions in terms of a variety of special functions. We show that many of the properties of the resulting functions, including functional equations and…

We study the topological, dynamical, and descriptive set theoretic properties of Hurwitz continued fractions. Hurwitz continued fractions associate an infinite sequence of Gaussian integers to every complex number which is not a Gaussian…

In this paper our aim is to present some Landen inequalities for Gaussian hypergeometric functions, confluent hypergeometric functions, generalized Bessel functions and for general power series. Our main results complement and generalize…

Several second moment and other integral evaluations for the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$, Hurwitz zeta function $\zeta(s,a)$, and Lerch zeta function $\Phi(z,s,a)$ are presented. Additional corollaries that are obtained include…

Let $P_s \in \mathcal{D}_s[X_0,X_1, \ldots,X_l]$ be a polynomial whose coefficients are the ring of all general Dirichlet series which converge absolutely in the half-plane $\Re (s) > 1/2$. In the present paper, we show that the function…

We point out a simple criterion for convergence of polynomials to a concrete entire function in the Laguerre-P\'{o}lya ($\mathcal{LP}$) class (of all functions arising as uniform limits of polynomials with only real roots). We then use this…

In this article, we develop a formula for an inverse Riemann zeta function such that for $w=\zeta(s)$ we have $s=\zeta^{-1}(w)$ for real and complex domains $s$ and $w$. The presented work is based on extending the analytical recurrence…

We prove two principal results. Firstly, we characterise Maass forms in terms of functional equations for Dirichlet series twisted by primitive characters. The key point is that the twists are allowed to be meromorphic. This weakened…

We introduce a new technique that allows us to make progress on two long standing conjectures in transcendental dynamics: Baker's conjecture that a transcendental entire function of order less than 1/2 has no unbounded Fatou components, and…

The functional relation of the Hurwitz zeta function is proved by using the connection problem of the confluent hypergeometric equation.

In this note we prove that for all $a \in \mathbb{N}$, $x \in \mathbb{R}_+ \cup \{0\}$, and $s \in \mathbb{C}$ with $\Re(s) > a + 2$, the (alternating) weighted series of the Hurwitz zeta function, $$ \sum_{k \geq 1} (\pm 1)^k (k +…
