We define a class of expressions for the multiple zeta function, and show how to determine whether an expression in the class vanishes identically. The class of such identities, which we call partition identities, is shown to coincide with…
Some rapidly convergent formulae for special values of the Riemann zeta function are given. We obtain a generating function formula for zeta(4n+3) which generalizes Apery's series for zeta(3), and appears to give the best possible series…
We prove three theorems on finite real multiple zeta values: the symmetric formula, the sum formula and the height-one duality theorem. These are analogues of their counterparts on finite multiple zeta values.
A new definition for the Riemann zeta function for all positive integer number s > 1 is presented. We discover a most elegant expression and easy method for calculating the Riemann zeta function for small even integer values. Through this…
In this series of seven papers, predominantly by means of elementary analysis, we establish a number of identities related to the Riemann zeta function. Whilst this paper is mainly expository, some of the formulae reported in it are…
In this note, we prove the irrationality of $\zeta(5)$ and generalize the method to prove the irrationality of all higher odd zeta values. Our proof relies on the method of contradiction, existence of solution of a system of Linear…
We introduce a new exponent of simultaneous rational approximation $\widehat{\lambda}_{\min}(\xi,\eta)$ for pairs of real numbers $\xi,\eta$, in complement to the classical exponents $\lambda(\xi,\eta)$ of best approximation, and…
An explicit derivation of the elements of the representation ring of SU(2) needed to implement the four-dimensional Kirby calculus is sketched.
In this note we evaluate multiple integrals that play a crucial role in the theory of irrationality of zeta function
We develop a finite-dimensional, symmetric matrix framework associated with the Riemann zeta function for complex arguments s with Real(s) unequal 1/2.
We derive several identities for the Hurwitz and Riemann zeta functions, the Gamma function, and Dirichlet $L$-functions. They involve a sequence of polynomials $\alpha_k(s)$ whose study was initiated in an earlier paper. The expansions…
We show that if any four distinct solutions of a rational difference equation are algebraically independent, then any number of distinct solutions to the equation are independent. A nontrivial variant of this result is given for autonomous…
We prove the rationality of some zeta functions associated tocharacters of pro-p groups of finite rank.
In this paper it is shown that Riemann's zeta function $\zeta(s)$ admits two limit representations when $\Re{(s)}>1.$ Each of these limit representations is deduced by using simple arguments based upon the classical Tannery's (limiting)…
The role of the descriptor system representation as basis for reliable numerical computations for system analysis and synthesis, and in particular, for the manipulation of rational matrices, is discussed and available robust numerical…
It is only in exceptional cases that a $_2F_1(z)$-series with rational parameters and a rational argument, apart from the cases for $z \in \{ \pm 1, \frac{1}{2} \}$ associated with classical hypergeometric identities, admits an evaluation…
We study a family of mixed Tate motives over $\mathbb{Z}$ whose periods are linear forms in the zeta values $\zeta(n)$. They naturally include the Beukers-Rhin-Viola integrals for $\zeta(2)$ and the Ball-Rivoal linear forms in odd zeta…
We present a short, purely algebraic proof of the Symmetric Bessmertny\u{i} Realization Theorem in the characteristic $2$ case recently proved in [EOW26]. Symmetric Bessmertny\u{i} realizations are Schur complements of affine linear…
In this paper, a new approximate syllogistic reasoning schema is described that expands some of the approaches expounded in the literature into two ways: (i) a number of different types of quantifiers (logical, absolute, proportional,…
We prove that Z in definable in Q by a formula with 2 universal quantifiers followed by 7 existential quantifiers. It follows that there is no algorithm for deciding, given an algebraic family of Q-morphisms, whether there exists one that…
