In this article, we establish an additive decomposition of the discrete zeta function (for $s \in \mathbb{N}^*$, $s > 1$), more precisely of the function $4(\zeta(s)-1)$, as a series whose general term is of the form $1/x_n(s) + 1/y_n(s) +…
The purpose of this note is to give an affirmative answer to a conjecture appearing in [Integral Transforms Spec. Funct. 26 (2015) 90-95].
We investigate a modified M\"obius $\mu$-function which is related to an infinite product of shifted Riemann zeta-functions. We prove conditional and unconditional upper and lower bounds for its summatory function, and, finally, we discuss…
In this paper, we investigate decompositions of the partition function $p(n)$ from the additive theory of partitions considering the famous M\"{o}bius function $\mu(n)$ from multiplicative number theory. Some combinatorial interpretations…
Let $\lambda$ denote the Liouville function. The Chowla conjecture asserts that $$ \sum_{n \leq X} \lambda(a_1 n + b_1) \lambda(a_2 n+b_2) \dots \lambda(a_k n + b_k) = o_{X \to \infty}(X) $$ for any fixed natural numbers $a_1,a_2,\dots,a_k$…
In this paper we give an ordinal analysis of the theory of second order arithmetic. We do this by working with proof trees -- that is, "deductions" which may not be well-founded. Working in a suitable theory, we are able to represent…
We prove a function field version of Chowla's conjecture on the autocorrelation of the M\"obius function in the limit of a large finite field of characteristic 2.
We give an estimate for sums appearing in the Nyman-Beurling criterion for the Riemann Hypothesis. These sums contain the M\"obius function and are related to the imaginary part of the Estermann zeta function. The estimate is remarkably…
This addendum presents a relevant stronger consequence of the main theorem of the paper "Higher order stroboscopic averaged functions: a general relationship with Melnikov functions" [arXiv:2011.03663], EJQTDE No. 77 (2021).
After attaching explicitly to the M\"obius strip an invertible module over the ring of real polynomial functions on the real circle, we expound as directly as possible the many faces and the main algebraic properties of invertible modules.…
Some class of sums which naturally include the sums of powers of integers is considered. A number of conjectures concerning a representation of these sums is made.
We propose a conjecture refining the Stark conjecture St(K/k,S) (Tate's formulation) in the function field case. Of course St(K/k,S) in this case is a theorem due to Deligne and independently to Hayes. The novel feature of our conjecture is…
We study the spectral disjointness of the powers of a rank-one transformation. For a large class of rank-one constructions, including those for which the cutting and stacking parameters are bounded, and other examples such as rigid…
We use discrete Morse theory to determine the M\"obius function of generalized factor order. Ordinary factor order on the Kleene closure A* of a set A is the partial order defined by letting u\leq w if w contains u as a subsequence of…
An elementary recursive relation for M$\ddot{\mathrm{o}}$bius function $\mu (n)$ is introduced by two simple ways. With this recursive relation, $\mu (n)$ can be calculated without directly knowing the factorization of the $n$. $\mu (1)…
We use Cramer's formula for the inverse of a matrix and a combinatorial expression for the determinant in terms of paths of an associated digraph (which can be traced back to Coates) to give a combinatorial interpretation of M\"obius…
Some notes and observations on analytic functions defined on an annulus
We extend a previous conjecture [cond-mat/0407477] relating the Perron-Frobenius eigenvector of the monodromy matrix of the O(1) loop model to refined numbers of alternating sign matrices. By considering the O(1) loop model on a…
We provide a version of the celebrated theorem of Koml\'os in which, rather then random quantities, a sequence of finitely additive measures is considered. We obtain a form of the subsequence principle and some applications.
Considering a linearly ordered set, we introduce its symmetric version, and endow it with two operations extending supremum and infimum, so as to obtain an algebraic structure close to a commutative ring. We show that imposing symmetry…
