We prove a conjecture due to Kimoto and Wakayama from 2006 concerning Apery-like numbers associated to a special value of a spectral zeta function. Our proof uses hypergeometric series and p-adic analysis.
Pad\'e approximation has two natural extensions to vector rational approximation through the so called type I and type II Hermite-Pad\'e approximants. The convergence properties of type II Hermite-Pad\'e approximants have been studied. For…
Recent results of Zlobin and Cresson-Fischler-Rivoal allow one to decompose any suitable $p$-uple series of hypergeometric type into a linear combination (over the rationals) of multiple zeta values of depth at most $p$; in some cases, only…
We present a conjecture about the asymptotic representation of certain series. The conjecture implies the Riemann hypothesis and it would also indicate the simplicity of the non-trivial zeros of the zeta-function.
Dirichlet's $L$-functions are natural extensions of the Riemann zeta function. In this paper we first give a brief survey of Ap\'ery-like series for some special values of the zeta function and certain $L$-functions. Then, we establish two…
By means of a variational approach we find new series representations both for well known mathematical constants, such as $\pi$ and the Catalan constant, and for mathematical functions, such as the Riemann zeta function. The series that we…
Roger Apery's seminal method for proving irrationality is "turned on its head" and taught to computers, enabling a one second redux of the original proof of zeta(3), and many new irrationality proofs of many new constants, alas, none of…
This monograph is intended to be considered as my habilitation (D.Sc.) thesis; because of that and as everything has already appeared in English, it is performed exclusively in Russian. The monograph comprises a detailed introduction and…
Linear recursions with integer coefficients, such as the one generating the Fibonacci sequence, have been intensely studied over millennia and yet still hide new mathematics. Such a recursion was used by Ap\'ery in his proof of the…
We refine a result of the last two Authors of [8] on a Diophantine approximation problem with two primes and a $k$-th power of a prime which was only proved to hold for $1<k<4/3$. We improve the $k$-range to $1<k\le 3$ by combining Harman's…
This paper uses W. M. Schmidt's idea formulated in 1967 to generalise the classical theory of Diophantine approximation to subspaces of $\mathbb{R}^n$. Given two subspaces of $\mathbb{R}^n$ $A$ and $B$ of respective dimensions $d$ and $e$…
We present a two-parameter family of recursion formulas for scalar field theory. The first parameter is the dimension $(D)$. The second parameter ($\zeta$) allows one to continuously extrapolate between Wilson's approximate recursion…
We prove that there is no fpt-algorithm that can approximate the dominating set problem with any constant ratio, unless FPT= W[1]. Our hardness reduction is built on the second author's recent W[1]-hardness proof of the biclique problem.…
Bethe-Salpeter equation is solved for bound state composed of two fermions mediated by pion exchange force of the pseudovector coupling. Expanding the amplitude by gamma matrices the one-dimensional integral equation is derived. It…
Consider a real matrix $\Theta$ consisting of rows $(\theta_{i,1},\ldots,\theta_{i,n})$, for $1\leq i\leq m$. The problem of making the system linear forms $x_{1}\theta_{i,1}+\cdots+x_{n}\theta_{i,n}-y_{i}$ for integers $x_{j},y_{i}$ small…
The Hartree-Fock-RPA approach is applied to the 1D anti-ferromagnetic Heisenberg model in the Jordan-Wigner representation. Somewhat contrary to expectation, this leads to reasonable results for spectral functions and sum rules in the…
Assume that the link of a complex normal surface singularity is a rational homology sphere. Then its Seiberg-Witten invariant can be computed as the `periodic constant' of the topological multivariable Poincar\'e series (zeta function).…
We investigate some Diophantine approximation constants related to the simultaneous approximation of $(\zeta,\zeta^{2},\ldots,\zeta^{k})$ for Liouville numbers $\zeta$. For a certain class of Liouville numbers including the famous…
We study the $P_1$ finite element approximation of the best constant in the classical Hardy inequality over bounded domains containing the origin in $\mathbb{R}^N$, for $N \geq 3$. Despite the fact that this constant is not attained in the…
This paper is devoted to Ser's and Hasse's series representations for the zeta-functions, as well as to several closely related results. The notes concerning Ser's and Hasse's representations are given as theorems, while the related…
