We derive the full set of beta functions for the marginal essential couplings of projectable Horava gravity in (3 + 1)-dimensional spacetime. To this end we compute the divergent part of the one-loop effective action in static background…

In one of his final research papers, Alan Turing introduced a method to certify the completeness of a purported list of zeros of the Riemann zeta-function. In this paper we consider Turing's method in the analogous setting of Selberg…

It is known that the Selberg zeta function for the modular group has an expression in terms of the class numbers and the fundamental units of the indefinite binary quadratic forms. In the present paper, we generalize such a expression to…

We develop a transfer matrix method to compute exactly the spin-spin correlation functions of Bethe lattice spin models in the external magnetic field h and for any temperature T. We first compute the correlation function for the most…

We prove certain general forms of functional relations among Witten multiple zeta-functions in several variables (or zeta-functions of root systems). The structural background of those functional relations is given by the symmetry with…

We review generalized zeta functions built over the Riemann zeros (in short: "superzeta" functions). They are symmetric functions of the zeros that display a wealth of explicit properties, fully matching the much more elementary Hurwitz…

We provide an explicit construction of a cross section for the geodesic flow on infinite-area Hecke triangle surfaces which allows us to conduct a transfer operator approach to the Selberg zeta function. Further we construct closely related…

Using the operator approach, we obtain logarithmic quasinormal modes and frequencies of a traceless spin-3 field around the BTZ black hole at the critical point of the spin-3 topologically massive gravity. The logarithmic quasinormal…

In this paper, some new results are reported for the study of Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$ in the critical strip $0<Re(s)<1$, such as $\zeta(s)$ expressed in a generalized Euler product only involving prime numbers. Particularly, some…

The modified zeta functions $\sum_{n \in K} n^{-s}$, where $K \subset \N$, converge absolutely for $\Re s > 1/2$. These generalise the Riemann zeta function which is known to have a meromorphic continuation to all of $\C$ with a single pole…

Using analytic torsion associated to stable bundles, we introduce zeta functions for compact Riemann surfaces. To justify the well-definedness, we analyze the degenerations of analytic torsions at the boundaries of the moduli spaces, the…
