Motivated by the integral representation of the Euler Beta function, we introduce its Cauchy siblings and investigate some of their properties. Two of these newly introduced functions happen to coincide with some classical means, such as…

We generalize the derivation of the Wallis formula for $\pi$ from a variational computation of the spectrum of the Hydrogen atom. We obtain infinite product formulas for certain combinations of gamma functions, which include irrational…

We explicitly evaluate a special type of multiple Dirichlet $L$-values at positive integers in two different ways: One approach involves using symmetric functions, while the other involves using a generating function of the values. Equating…

We show that integrals of the form \[ \dint_{0}^{1} x^{m}{\rm Li}_{p}(x){\rm Li}_{q}(x)dx, (m\geq -2, p,q\geq 1) \] and \[ \dint_{0}^{1} \frac{\ds \log^{r}(x){\rm Li}_{p}(x){\rm Li}_{q}(x)}{\ds x}dx, (p,q,r\geq 1) \] satisfy certain…

In this note, we establish a multiplicity theorem for a nonlocal discrete problem of the type $$\cases{-\left(a\sum_{m=1}^{n+1}|x_m-x_{m-1}|^2+b\right)(x_{k+1}-2x_k+x_{k-1})=h_k(x_k)\hskip 10pt k=1,...,n, \cr & \cr x_0=x_{n+1}=0\cr}$$…

The Boltzmann-Wallis-Jaynes' multiplicity argument is taken up and elaborated. MaxEnt is proved and demonstrated to be just an asymptotic case of looking for such a vector of absolute frequencies in a feasible set, which has maximal…

We consider the problem of multiplicity and uniqueness of radial solutions of a nonlinear elliptic equation of the form \begin{eqnarray*} \begin{gathered} \Delta u +f(u)=0,\quad x\in \mathbb{R}^N, N\geq 2, \lim\limits_{|x|\to\infty}u(x)=0.…

We present a survey on recent developments of generalizations of Forelli's analyticity theorem and related pluripotential methods.

In this paper, we introduce and develop the notion of spanning of integers along functions $f:\mathbb{N}\longrightarrow \mathbb{R}$. We apply this method to a class of problems that requires to determine if the equations of the form…

We consider a variation of the Mahler measure where the defining integral is performed over a more general torus. We focus our investigation on two particular polynomials related to certain elliptic curve $E$ and we establish new formulas…

For $x>0$ let $\pi(x)$ denote the number of primes not exceeding $x$. For integers $a$ and $m>0$, we determine when there is an integer $n>1$ with $\pi(n)=(n+a)/m$. In particular, we show that for any integers $m>2$ and $a\le\lceil…

We show that the variational representations for f-divergences currently used in the literature can be tightened. This has implications to a number of methods recently proposed based on this representation. As an example application we use…

We discuss the detectable subspaces of an operator. We analyse the relation between the M-function (the abstract Dirichlet to Neumann map) and the resolvent bordered by projections onto the detectable subspaces. The abstract results are…

For a family of weight functions invariant under a finite reflection group, the boundedness of a maximal function on the unit sphere is established and used to prove a multiplier theorem for the orthogonal expansions with respect to the…

We prove explicit upper bounds of the function $S_m(T)$, defined by the repeated integration of the argument of the Riemann zeta-function. The explicit upper bound of $S(T)$ and $S_1(T)$ have already been obtained by A. Fujii. Our result is…

Let $j \ge1$, $k\ge 0$ be real numbers and $\varphi(n)$ be the Euler function. In this paper, we study the asymptotical behaviour of the summation function $$S_{j,k}(x):=\sum_{n\le x}\frac{\varphi\left ( \left [ \frac{x}{n} \right ]^{j}…

Let $M$ be a compact $n$-dimensional Riemanian manifold, End($M$) the set of the endomorphisms of $M$ with the usual $\mathcal{C}^0$ topology and $\phi: M\to\mathbb{R}$ continuous. We prove that there exists a dense subset of $\mathcal{A}$…

We prove new upper bounds for the number of representations of an arbitrary rational number as a sum of three unit fractions. In particular, for fixed $m$ there are at most $\mathcal{O}_{\epsilon}(n^{3/5+\epsilon})$ solutions of…

The Poincare series of a multi-index filtration on the ring of germs of functions can be written as a certain integral with respect to the Euler characteristic over the projectivization of the ring. Here this integral is considered with…
