The Riemann Hypothesis is reformulated as statements about eigenvalues of some matrices entries of which are defined via Taylor coefficient of the zeta function. These eigenvalues demonstrate interesting visual patterns allowing one to…
Explicit evaluations of the Tornheim-like double series in the form \[ \sum_{n,m=1}^\infty \frac{H_{n+m+s}}{nm\left( n+m+s \right)},\ s\in \mathbb{N\cup } \left\{ 0 \right\} \] and their extensions are given. Furthermore, series of the type…
Let $\alpha(n)$ denote the number of perfect square permutations in the symmetric group $S_n$. The conjecture $\alpha(2n+1) = (2n+1) \alpha(2n)$, provided by Stanley[4], was proved by Blum[1] using a generating function. This paper presents…
Riemann zeta function is important in a lot of branches of number theory. With the help of the operator method and several transformation formulas for hypergeometric series, we prove four series involving Riemann zeta function. Two of them…
In this paper, we study multiple zeta values (abbreviated as MZV's) over function fields in positive characteristic. Our main result is to prove Thakur's basis conjecture, which plays the analogue of Hoffman's basis conjecture for real…
For the complete five-valued cross-correlation distribution between two $m$-sequences ${s_t}$ and ${s_{dt}}$ of period $2^m-1$ that differ by the decimation $d={{2^{2k}+1}\over {2^k+1}}$ where $m$ is odd and $\mbox{gcd}(k,m)=1$, Johansen…
We have gone back to old methods found in the historical part of Hardy's Divergent Series well before the invention of the modern analytic continuation to use formal manipulation of harmonic sums which produce some interesting formulae.…
We study a general type of series and relate special cases of it to Stirling series, infinite series discussed by Choi and Hoffman, and also to special values of the Arakawa-Kaneko zeta function, complementing and generalizing earlier…
We verify numerically, in a rigorous way using interval arithmetic, that the Riemann hypothesis is true up to height $3\cdot10^{12}$. That is, all zeroes $\beta + i\gamma$ of the Riemann zeta-function with $0<\gamma\leq 3\cdot 10^{12}$ have…
In this paper, we mainly prove the following conjecture of Z.-H. Sun cite{SH20}: Let $p>3$ be a prime. Then $$\sum_{k=0}^{p-1}\binom{2k}k\frac{3k+1}{(-16)^k}f_k\equiv(-1)^{(p-1)/2}p+p^3E_{p-3}\pmod{p^4},$$ where…
In 2008, Muneta found explicit evaluation of the multiple zeta star value $\zeta^\star(\{3, 1\}^d)$, and in 2013, Yamamoto proved a sum formula for multiple zeta star values on 3-2-1 indices. In this paper, we provide another way of…
A combinatorial identity that was needed in Ahlgren and Ono's proof of a certain congruence conjecture of Frits Beukers is stated, and a pointer to its WZ proof is given.
In this paper a new conjecture equivalent to Collatz conjecture is presented. In particural, showing that (all) the solution(s) of newly introduced iterative functional equation(s) have a given property is equivalent to prove Collatz…
For the Riemann zeta-function on the critical line the terminal estimate have been proved, which had been conjectured by Lindel\"of at the beginning of this Centure. The proof is based on the authors relations which connect the bilinear…
In this paper, we prove a congruence which confirms a conjecture of Adamchuk. For any prime $p\equiv1\pmod3$ and $a\in\mathbb{Z}^{+}$, we have \begin{align*} \sum_{k=1}^{\frac{2}3(p^a-1)}\binom{2k}k\equiv0\pmod{p^2}. \end{align*}
This paper studies certain trajectories of the Collatz function. I show that if for each odd number $n$, $n\sim 3n+2$ then every positive integer $n \in \mathbb{N}\setminus 2^{\mathbb{N}}$ has the representation…
We derive new results about properties of the Witten zeta function associated with the group SU(3), and use them to prove an asymptotic formula for the number of n-dimensional representations of SU(3) counted up to equivalence. Our analysis…
Let $p\equiv 1\,(\mathrm{mod}\,3)$ be a prime and denote by $\zeta_3$ a primitive third root of unity. Recently, Lemmermeyer presented a conjecture about $3$-class groups of pure cubic fields $L=\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt[3]{p})$ and of their normal…
In this paper, we find rational zeta series with $\zeta(2n)$ in terms of $\zeta(2k+1)$ and $\beta(2k)$, the Dirichlet beta function. We then develop a certain family of generalized rational zeta series using the generalized Clausen function…
In this paper, we extend recent work of the third author and Ziegler on triples of integers $(a,b,c)$, with the property that each of $(a,b,c)$, $(a+1,b+1,c+1)$ and $(a+2,b+2,c+2)$ is multiplicatively dependent, completely classifying such…
