In this paper we continue the study of codes over imaginary quadratic fields and their weight enumerators and theta functions. We present new examples of non-equivalent codes over rings of characteristic $p=2$ and $p=5$ which have the same…

The Mordell-Tornheim zeta function and the Herglotz-Zagier function $F(x)$ are two important functions in Mathematics. By generalizing a special case of the former, namely $\Theta(z, x)$, we show that the theories of these functions are…

Quantum systems with variables in ${\mathbb Z}(d)$ are considered, and three different structures are studied. The first is weak mutually unbiased bases, for which the absolute value of the overlap of any two vectors in two different bases…

We show that if $\rho$ is a non-trivial zero of the Riemann zeta function $\zeta$ then $$2^\rho + \frac{1}{\rho - 1} + 1/2 = \rho \int_{1}^{\infty} {t + 1/2} t^{-\rho-1} dt$$ where, ${x}$ is the fractional part of $x$.

The $2 q$-th pseudomoment $\Psi_{2q,\alpha}(x)$ of the $\alpha$-th power of the Riemann zeta function is defined to be the $2 q$-th moment of the partial sum up to $x$ of $\zeta^\alpha$ on the critical line. Using probabilistic methods of…

We study integrals over the triangle with vertices (1,0), (0,1), (1,1) that give linear combinations of multiple zeta values.

We present a class of multiplicative functions $f:\mathbb{N}\to\mathbb{C}$ with bounded partial sums. The novelty here is that our functions do not need to have modulus bounded by $1$. The key feature is that they pretend to be the constant…

We study the Lambert series $\mathscr{L}_q(s,x) = \sum_{k=1}^\infty k^s q^{k x}/(1-q^k)$, for all $s \in \mathbb{C}$. We obtain the complete asymptotic expansion of $\mathscr{L}_q(s,x)$ near $q=1$. Our analysis of the Lambert series yields…

There are many results for explicit expressions about $q$-multiple zeta values or $q$-harmonic sums on $A-\cdots-A$ indices, that is, the indices are the same. Though the way to treat $q$-multiple zeta values unless the indices are the…

We study zero-free regions of the Riemann zeta function $\zeta$ related to an approximation problem in the weighted Dirichlet space $D_{-2}$ which is known to be equivalent to the Riemann Hypothesis since the work of B\'aez-Duarte. We…

Sophomore's dream sum $S=\sum_{n=1}^\infty n^{-n}$ is extended to the function $f(t,a)=t\int_{0}^{1}(ax)^{-tx}dx$ with $f(1,1)=S$. Asymptotic behavior for a large $|t|$ is obtained, which is exponential for $t>0$ and $t<0,a>1$, and…

The distribution of the zeros of the partition function in the complex temperature plane (Fisher zeros) of the two-dimensional Q-state Potts model is studied for non-integer Q. On $L\times L$ self-dual lattices studied ($L\le8$), no Fisher…

A detailed, internal symmetry exists between individual terms $n^{-s}$, where $n \in P$ is less than a particular value $n_p$, and sums over conjugate regions consisting of adjoining steps $n$ greater than $n_p$. The boundaries of the…

Quantum theta functions were introduced by the author in [Ma1]. They are certain elements in the function rings of quantum tori. By definition, they satisfy a version of the classical functional equations involving shifts by the…

Let $\gamma$ denote the imaginary parts of complex zeros $\rho = \beta+i\gamma$ of $\zeta(s)$. The problem of analytic continuation of the function $G(s) := \sum\limits_{\gamma > 0}\gamma^{-s}$ to the left of the line $\Re s = -1$ is…

It is shown that there is an absolute constant $C$ such that any rational $\frac bq\in]0, 1[, (b, q)=1$, admits a representation as a finite sum $\frac bq=\sum_\alpha\frac {b_\alpha}{q_\alpha}$ where $\sum_\alpha\sum_ia_i(\frac…
