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…

We present a unified approach which gives completely elementary proofs of three weighted sum formulae for double zeta values. This approach also leads to new evaluations of sums relating to the harmonic numbers, the alternating double zeta…

We prove a sharp upper bound for the fourth moment of the Hurwitz zeta function $\zeta(s,\alpha)$ on the critical line when the shift parameter $\alpha$ is irrational and of irrationality exponent strictly less than 3. As a consequence, we…

Assuming the positive solution to the Cut-and-paste problem we prove that the motivic zeta function remains irrational after inverting L.

We use the Arakawa-Berndt theory of generalized eta-functions to prove a conjecture of Lal\`in, Rodrigue and Rogers concerning the algebraic nature of special values of the secant zeta functions.

In this paper, we give a proof of a conjecture made by Zagier about the inverse of some matrix related to double zeta values of parity $(\mathrm{even},\mathrm{odd})$. As a result, we obtain a family of Bernoulli number identities. We…

We consider the resolvent of a system of first order differential operators with a regular singularity, admitting a family of self-adjoint extensions. We find that the asymptotic expansion for the resolvent in the general case presents…

In 1982, Gessel showed that the Ap\'ery numbers associated to the irrationality of $\zeta(3)$ satisfy Lucas congruences. Our main result is to prove corresponding congruences for all sporadic Ap\'ery-like sequences. In several cases, we are…

Some new results concerning the equation $\sigma(N)=aM, \sigma(M)=bN$ are proved. As a corollary, there are only finitely many odd superperfect numbers with a fixed number of distinct prime factors.

Beginning with the conjecture of Artin and Tate in 1966, there has been a series of successively more general conjectures expressing the special values of the zeta function of an algebraic variety over a finite field in terms of other…

We shall given a new effectively computable upper bound of odd perfect numbers whose Euler factors are powers of fixed exponent, improving our old result in T. Yamada, Colloq. Math. 103 (2005), 303--307.

We give thirty-two diverse proofs of a small mathematical gem--the fundamental Euler sum identity zeta(2,1)=zeta(3) =8zeta(\bar 2,1). We also discuss various generalizations for multiple harmonic (Euler) sums and some of their many…

We prove or conjecture several relations between the multizeta values for positive genus function fields of class number one, focusing on the zeta-like values, namely those whose ratio with the zeta value of the same weight is rational (or…

This is a closed form evaluation of one interesting alternating series whose value is a combination of three mathematical constants, Pi, log 2, and Zeta (3).

In this paper, we give some explicit evaluations of multiple zeta-star values which are rational multiple of powers of $\pi^2$.

We study the behavior of $r$-fold zeta-functions of Euler-Zagier type with identical arguments $\zeta_r(s,s,\ldots,s)$ on the real line. Our basic tool is an "infinite'' version of Newton's classical identities. We carry out numerical…

Gangl, Kaneko, and Zagier gave explicit linear relations among double zeta values of odd indices coming from the period polynomials of modular forms for ${\rm SL}(2,\mathbb{Z})$. In this paper, we generalize their result to the linear…

We describe geometrically and algebraically the set of unattainable points for the Rational Hermite Interpolation Problem (i.e. those points where the problem does not have a solution). We show that this set is a union of equidimensional…

The problem we consider is to define families of n-dimensional integrals, endowed with group actions as in Rhin-Viola's work on irrationality measures of $\zeta(2)$ and $\zeta(3)$, the values of which are linear forms, over the rationals,…

In this paper, the problem of multiplicative anomaly of zeta regularization is solved for polynomials. For a regularizable sequence $\Lambda$, we explicitly calculate the zeta regularized product of $(\Lambda-z_1)\dots(\Lambda-z_n)$ for…
