In this paper, based on the theory of defining sets, a class of four-weight or five-weight linear codes over Fp is constructed. The complete weight enumerators of the linear codes are determined by means of Weil sums. In some case, there is…

We give an exact formula for the Bellman function of the weak type of martingale transform. We also give the extremal functions (actually extremal sequences of functions). We find them using the precise form of the Bellman function. The…

In this paper, for an odd prime $p$, by extending Li et al.'s construction \cite{CL2016}, several classes of two-weight and three-weight linear codes over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_p$ are constructed from a defining set, and then their…

In this note, we give an equivalent condition for a self-dual weight enumerator of genus three to satisfy the Riemann hypothesis. We also observe the truth and falsehood of the Riemann hypothesis for some families of invariant polynomials.

Observing a multiple version of the divisor function we introduce a new zeta function which we call a multiple finite Riemann zeta function. We utilize some $q$-series identity for proving the zeta function has an Euler product and then,…

The theory of Ihara zeta functions is extended to infinite graphs which are weighted and of finite total weight. In this case one gets meromorphic instead of rational functions and the classical determinant formulas of Bass and Ihara hold…

Weights of permutations were originally introduced by Dugan, Glennon, Gunnells, and Steingr\'imsson (Journal of Combinatorial Theory, Series A 164:24-49, 2019) in their study of the combinatorics of tiered trees. Given a permutation…

In this paper we provide a proof of the Riemann Hypothesis by relating the non-trivial zeros of the zeta function to a certain Sturm-Liouville eigenvalue problem on a finite interval.

We show that each member of a doubly infinite sequence of highly nonlinear expressions of Bernoulli polynomials, which can be seen as linear combinations of certain higher-order convolutions, is a multiple of a specific product of linear…

Using Cauchy's Integral Theorem as a basis, what may be a new series representation for Dirichlet's function $\eta(s)$, and hence Riemann's function $\zeta(s)$, is obtained in terms of the Exponential Integral function $E_{s}(i\kappa)$ of…

We introduce and study "elliptic zeta values", a two-parameter deformation of the values of Riemann's zeta function at positive integers. They are essentially Taylor coefficients of the logarithm of the elliptic gamma function, and share…

New expressions are given for the Fourier expansions of non-holomorphic Eisenstein series with weight $k$. Among other applications, this leads to non-holomorphic analogs of formulas of Ramanujan, Grosswald and Berndt containing Eichler…

We examine published arguments which suggest that the Riemann Hypothesis may not be true. In each case we provide evidence to explain why the claimed argument does not provide a good reason to doubt the Riemann Hypothesis. The evidence we…

The weight enumerators (quant-ph/9610040) of a quantum code are quite powerful tools for exploring its structure. As the weight enumerators are quadratic invariants of the code, this suggests the consideration of higher-degree polynomial…

We prove the second author's "denominator conjecture" [40] concerning the common denominators of coefficients of certain linear forms in zeta values. These forms were recently constructed to obtain lower bounds for the dimension of the…

A lower bound for the dimension of the $\Q$-vector space spanned by special values of a Dirichlet series with periodic coefficients is given. As a corollary, it is deduced that both special values at even integers and at odd integers…

Finite differences of values of the Riemann zeta function at the integers are explored. Such quantities, which occur as coefficients in Newton series representations, have surfaced in works of Maslanka, Coffey, Baez-Duarte, Voros and…

This article is a continuation of our recent work (Yin Chen and Runxuan Zhang, Shape enumerators of self-dual NRT codes over finite fields. SIAM J. Discrete Math. 38 (2024), no. 4, 2841-2854) in the setting of quantum error-correcting…

In this paper, we prove that $\boldsymbol{\zeta}$ cannot be a solution to any nontrivial algebraic differential equation whose coefficients are polynomials in $\boldsymbol{\Gamma},\boldsymbol{\Gamma}^{(n)}$ and $\boldsymbol{\Gamma}^{(\ell…

In this note we shall study the Witten multiple zeta function associated to the Lie algebra so(5) defined by Matsumoto. Our main result shows that its special values at nonnegative integers are always expressible by alternating Euler sums.…
