The Macdonald operator is known to coincide with a certain element of the quantum toroidal $\mathfrak{gl}(1)$ algebra in the Fock representation of levels $(1,0)$. A generalization of this operator to higher levels $(r,0)$ can be built…

A new class of lattice Dirac operators $D$ have been recently proposed on the basis of the generalized Ginsparg-Wilson relation, $\gamma_5(\gamma_5 D) + (\gamma_5 D)\gamma_5 =2a^{2k+1}(\gamma_5 D)^{2k+2}$, where $k$ is a non-negative…

In recent work, Hickerson and the author demonstrated that it is useful to think of Appell--Lerch sums as partial theta functions. This notion can be used to relate identities involving partial theta functions with identities involving…

We introduce the notion of $\Delta$ and $\sigma\,\Delta-$ pairs for operator algebras and characterise $\Delta-$ pairs through their categories of left operator modules over these algebras. Furthermore, we introduce the notion of…

In 2000, Kadell gave an orthogonality conjecture for a symmetric function generalization of the Zeilberger--Bressoud $q$-Dyson theorem or the $q$-Dyson constant term identity. This conjecture was proved by K\'{a}rolyi, Lascoux and Warnaar…

The author derives new family of series representations for the values of the Riemann Zeta function $\zeta(s)$ at positive odd integers. For $n\in\mathbb{N}$, each of these series representing $\zeta(2n+1)$ converges remarkably rapidly with…

In this paper, we introduce a Kantorovich type generalization of Jakimovski-Leviatan operators constructed by A. Jakimovski and D. Leviatan (1969) and the theorems on convergence and the degrree of convergence are established. Furthermore,…

Spencer Bloch and the author formulated a general conjecture (Tamagawa number conjecture) on the relation between values of zeta functions of motives and arithmetic groups associated to motives. We discuss this conjecture, and describe some…

We define a strong Morita-type equivalence $\sim _{\sigma \Delta }$ for operator algebras. We prove that $A\sim _{\sigma \Delta }B$ if and only if $A$ and $B$ are stably isomorphic. We also define a relation $\subset _{\sigma \Delta }$ for…

In this survey we gather recent results on Dirac operators coupled with $\delta$-shell interactions. We start by discussing recent advances regarding the question of self-adjointness for these operators. Afterward we switch to an…

An intriguing coincidence between the partition function of super Yang-Mills theory and correlation functions of 2d Toda system has been heavily studied recently. While the partition function of gauge theory was explored by Nekrasov, the…

Properties of four quintic theta functions are developed in parallel with those of the classical Jacobi null theta functions. The quintic theta functions are shown to satisfy analogues of Jacobi's quartic theta function identity and…

We establish Kronecker limit type formula for the generalized Mordell-Tornheim zeta function $\Theta(r,r,t,x)$ as a function of the third argument around $t=1-r$. We then show that the above Kronecker limit type formula is equivalent to the…

It is shown that novel relations between multiple zeta values and single-variable multiple polylogarithms at 1/2 (delta values) can be derived by comparing two distinct, yet a priori equal, series formulae for the Drinfeld associator (from…

We propose a conjecture refining the Stark conjecture St(K/k,S) (Tate's formulation) in the function field case. Of course St(K/k,S) in this case is a theorem due to Deligne and independently to Hayes. The novel feature of our conjecture is…

The AGT conjecture claims an equivalence of conformal blocks in 2d CFT and sums of Nekrasov functions (instantonic sums in 4d SUSY gauge theory). The conformal blocks can be presented as Dotsenko-Fateev beta-ensembles, hence, the AGT…

We present new conditions for semigroups of positive operators to converge strongly as time tends to infinity. Our proofs are based on a novel approach combining the well-known splitting theorem by Jacobs, de Leeuw and Glicksberg with a…

A dynamical zeta function $\zeta$ and a transfer operator $\scr L$ are associated with a piecewise monotone map $f$ of the interval $[0,1]$ and a weight function $g$. The analytic properties of $\zeta$ and the spectral properties of $\scr…

In this paper the approximation of Dirac operators with general $\delta$-shell potentials supported on $C^2$-curves in $\mathbb{R}^2$ or $C^2$-surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$, which may be bounded or unbounded, is studied. It is shown under…

Using numerical, theoretical and general methods, we construct evaluation formulas for the Jacobi $\theta$ functions. Some of our results are conjectures, but are verified numerically.
