A Lambert series generating function is a special series summed over an arithmetic function $f$ defined by \[ L_f(q) := \sum_{n \geq 1} \frac{f(n) q^n}{1-q^n} = \sum_{m \geq 1} (f \ast 1)(m) q^m. \] Because of the way the left-hand-side…

The manuscript reviews Dirichlet Series of important multiplicative arithmetic functions. The aim is to represent these as products and ratios of Riemann zeta-functions, or, if that concise format is not found, to provide the leading…

We use sums over integer compositions analogous to generating functions in partition theory, to express certain partition enumeration functions as sums over compositions into parts that are $k$-gonal numbers; our proofs employ Ramanujan's…

We derive some new finite sums involving the sequence $s_{2}\left(n\right),$ the sum of digits of the expansion of $n$ in base $2.$ These functions allow us to generalize some classical results obtained by Allouche, Shallit and others.

We construct new continued fraction expansions of Jacobi-type J-fractions in $z$ whose power series expansions generate the ratio of the $q$-Pochhamer symbols, $(a; q)_n / (b; q)_n$, for all integers $n \geq 0$ and where $a,b,q \in…

The aim of this paper is to define new generating functions. By applying the Mellin transformation formula to these generating functions, we define q-analogue of Genocchi zeta function, q-analogue Hurwitz type Genocchi zeta function,…

We exploit transformations relating generalized $q$-series, infinite products, sums over integer partitions, and continued fractions, to find partition-theoretic formulas to compute the values of constants such as $\pi$, and to connect sums…

The class of Lambert series generating functions (LGFs) denoted by $L_{\alpha}(q)$ formally enumerate the generalized sum-of-divisors functions, $\sigma_{\alpha}(n) = \sum_{d|n} d^{\alpha}$, for all integers $n \geq 1$ and fixed real-valued…

We introduce two new binary operations with combinatorial species; the arithmetic product and the modified arithmetic product. The arithmetic product gives combinatorial meaning to the product of Dirichlet series and to the Lambert series…

We first summarize joint work on several preliminary canonical Lambert series factorization theorems. Within this article we establish new analogs to these original factorization theorems which characterize two specific primary cases of the…

We define a new class of generating function transformations related to polylogarithm functions, Dirichlet series, and Euler sums. These transformations are given by an infinite sum over the $j^{th}$ derivatives of a sequence generating…

Using a general $q$-series expansion, we derive some nontrivial $q$-formulas involving many infinite products. A multitude of Hecke--type series identities are derived. Some general formulas for sums of any number of squares are given. A…

We solve multiple conjectures by Byszewski and Ulas about the sum of base $b$ digits function. In order to do this, we develop general results about summations over the sum of digits function. As a corollary, we describe an unexpected new…

Generating series are crucial in enumerative combinatorics, analytic combinatorics, and combinatorics on words. Though it might seem at first view that generating Dirichlet series are less used in these fields than ordinary and exponential…

We study the Dirichlet series $F_b(s)=\sum_{n=1}^\infty d_b(n)n^{-s}$, where $d_b(n)$ is the sum of the base-$b$ digits of the integer $n$, and $G_b(s)=\sum_{n=1}^\infty S_b(n)n^{-s}$, where $S_b(n)=\sum_{m=1}^{n-1}d_b(m)$ is the summatory…

We study the Dirichlet series associated with the integers whose radix-$b$ representation misses certain (fixed) digits. The existence of a meromorphic continuation to the entire complex plane, which was already well-known as a general fact…

Friedberg, Hoffstein and Lieman have constructed two related multiple Dirichlet series from quadratic and higher-order $L$-functions and Gauss sums. We compute these multiple Dirichlet series explicitly in the case of the rational function…

We describe generating functions for several important families of classical symmetric functions and shifted Schur functions. The approach is originated from vertex operator realization of symmetric functions and offers a unified method to…

We summarize the known useful and interesting results and formulas we have discovered so far in this collaborative article summarizing results from two related articles by Merca and Schmidt arriving at related so-termed Lambert series…

Two sums over the inverse of the product of an integer n and its greatest prime factor G(n), are computed to first 13 decimal digits. These sums converge, but converge very slowly. They are transformed into sums involving Mertens' prime…
