Let $\lambda:[0,+\infty)\mapsto\mathbb{R}$ be the driving function of a chordal Loewner process. In this paper we find new conditions on $\lambda$ which imply that the process is generated by a simple curve. This result improves former one…

The double zeta function was first studied by Euler in response to a letter from Goldbach in 1742. One of Euler's results for this function is a decomposition formula, which expresses the product of two values of the Riemann zeta function…

The closed Dyson-Schwinger equation for the 2-point function of the noncommutative $\lambda \phi^4_2$-model is rearranged into the boundary value problem for a sectionally holomorphic function in two variables. We prove an exact formula for…

We revisit the solution due to Sommerfeld of a problem in classical electrodynamics, namely, that of the propagation of an electromagnetic axially symmetric surface wave (a low-attenuation single TM$_{01}$ mode) in a cylindrical metallic…

We explore a variant of the zeta function interpolating the Bernoulli numbers based on an integral representation suggested by J. Jensen. The Bernoulli function $\operatorname{B}(s, v) = - s\, \zeta(1-s, v)$ can be introduced independently…

The problem of calculating the Mittag-Leffler function $E_{\rho,\mu} (z)$ is considered in the paper. To solve this problem integral representations for the function $E_{\rho,\mu}(z)$ are transformed in such a way that they could not…

This short note for non-experts means to demystify the tasks of evaluating the Riemann Zeta Function at non-positive integers and at even natural numbers, both initially performed by Leonhard Euler. Treading in the footsteps of G. H. Hardy…

We study a q-logarithm which was introduced by Euler and give some of its properties. This q-logarithm did not get much attention in the recent literature. We derive basic properties, some of which were already given by Euler in a…

We study some series expansions for the Lambert $W$ function. We show that known asymptotic series converge in both real and complex domains. We establish the precise domains of convergence and other properties of the series, including…

In this note, we look at some of the less explored aspects of the gamma function. We provide a new proof of Euler's reflection formula and discuss its significance in the theory of special functions. We also discuss a result of Landau…

As one of the asymptotic formulas for the zeta-function, Hardy and Littlewood gave asymptotic formulas called the approximate functional equation. In 2003, R. Garunk\v{s}tis, A. Laurin\v{c}ikas, and J. Steuding (in [1]) proved the…

Several distributions and families of distributions are proposed to model skewed data, think, e.g., of skew-normal and related distributions. Lambert W random variables offer an alternative approach where, instead of constructing a new…

In 1776, L. Euler proposed three methods, called prima methodus, secunda methodus and tertia methodus, to calculate formulae for double zeta values. However strictly speaking, his last two methods are mathematically incomplete and require…

The Uehling contribution to the Lamb shift can be computed exactly in terms of the Uehling potential function. However derivations of this function are complex involving avoiding divergences using intricate techniques from early quantum…

We study fixed points of a function arising in a representation theory of the Drinfeld modules by the bounded linear operators on a Hilbert space. We prove that such points correspond to number fields of the class number one. As an…

Originating from a system theory and an input/output point of view, I introduce a new class of generalized distributions. A parametric nonlinear transformation converts a random variable $X$ into a so-called Lambert $W$ random variable $Y$,…

In the work we shall present formulas to sum Lambert series using Euler's q-exponential functions, and several Lambert series associated with well-known arithmetic functions are given as examples. These functions are: the M\"{o}bius…

The double zeta function is a function of two arguments defined by a double Dirichlet series, and was first studied by Euler in response to a letter from Goldbach in 1742. By calculating many examples, Euler inferred a closed form…

To decide upon the arithmetic nature of some numbers may be a non-trivial problem. Some cases are well know, for example exp(1) and W(1), where W is the Lambert function, are transcendental numbers. The Tsallis q-exponential, e_q (z), and…

The purpose of this note is to propose an application of the Lambert W function in linear viscoelasticity based on the Bernstein and Stieltjes properties of this function. In particular we recognize the role of the main branch W_0(t) in a…
