The central idea of this article is to introduce and prove a special form of the zeta function as proof of Riemann's last theorem. The newly proposed zeta function contains two sub functions, namely $f_1(b,s)$ and $f_2(b,s)$. The unique…

This paper is devoted to Ser's and Hasse's series representations for the zeta-functions, as well as to several closely related results. The notes concerning Ser's and Hasse's representations are given as theorems, while the related…

Using Parseval's identity for the Fourier coefficients of $x^k$, we provide a new proof that $\zeta(2k)=\dfrac{(-1)^{k+1}B_{2k}(2\pi)^{2k}}{2(2k)!}$.

A Master equation has been previously obtained which allows the analytic integration of a fairly large family of functions provided that they possess simple properties. Here, the properties of this Master equation are explored, by extending…

In this article, we explore a natural extension of the quadratic parametrization introduced in our previous work. By replacing the integer $n$ by $n^s$ ($ s\in\mathbb{R}, s>1$) and allowing the parameters to be real, we obtain for each…

We give an algebraic analog of the functional equation of Riemann's theta function. More precisely, we define a `theta multiplier' line bundle over the moduli stack of principally polarized abelian schemes with theta characteristic and…

We study the non homogeneous quadratic Bessel zeta function $\zeta_{RB}(s,\nu,a)$ defined as the sum of the square of the positive zeros of the Bessel function $J_\nu(z)$ plus a positive constant. In particular, we give explicit formulas…

In this article, we develop a formula for an inverse Riemann zeta function such that for $w=\zeta(s)$ we have $s=\zeta^{-1}(w)$ for real and complex domains $s$ and $w$. The presented work is based on extending the analytical recurrence…

We consider the real part $\Re(\zeta(s))$ of the Riemann zeta-function $\zeta(s)$ in the half-plane $\Re(s) \ge 1$. We show how to compute accurately the constant $\sigma_0 = 1.19\ldots$ which is defined to be the supremum of $\sigma$ such…

The double zeta function was first studied by Euler in response to a letter from Goldbach in 1742. One of Euler's results for this function is a decomposition formula, which expresses the product of two values of the Riemann zeta function…

The meromorphic function $W(s)$ introduced in the Riemann-Zeta function $\zeta(s) = W(s) \zeta(1-s)$ maps the line of $s = 1/2 + it$ onto the unit circle in $W$-space. $|W(s)| = 0$ gives the trivial zeroes of the Riemann-Zeta function…

We prove an explicit integral formula for computing the product of two shifted Riemann zeta functions everywhere in the complex plane. We show that this formula implies the existence of infinite families of exact exponential sum identities…

This paper presents a new approach to evaluating the special values of the Dirichlet beta function, $\beta(2k+1)$, where $k$ is any nonnegative integer. Our approach relies on some properties of the Euler numbers and polynomials, and uses…

In one of his posthumous papers, conserved in G\"ottingen, Riemann considers the derivatives of $\log\zeta(s)$ at the point $1/2$, giving explicit values for them. Around 2010 we shared Riemann's value of the second derivative with some…

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…

Let $\Delta(x)$ denote the error term in the Dirichlet divisor problem, and $E(T)$ the error term in the asymptotic formula for the mean square of $|\zeta(1/2 + it)|$. If $E^*(t) = E(t) - 2\pi\Delta^*(t/(2\pi))$ with $\Delta^*(x) = -…

One familiar with the Euler zeta function, which established the remarkable relationship between the prime and composite numbers, might naturally ponder the results of the application of this special function in cases where there is no…

We consider the alternating Riemann zeta function $\zeta^*(s)= \sum^{\infty} _{ n=1} \frac{(-1)^{n-1}}{n^s}$, which converges if $Re (s)>0 .$ By using Rouche's theorem, the Bolzano-Weierstrass theorem and by method of contradiction we…

By doing a slight change to a beautiful and widely unknown argument by E. L. Stark [E. L. Stark, Application of a Mean Value Theorem for Integrals to Series Summation, Amer. Math. Monthly 85 (1978) 481--483.] we get a candidate to be…

The number $\frac{\pi ^{2}}{6}$ is involved in the variance of several distributions in statistics. At the same time it holds $\sum\nolimits_{k=1}^{\infty }k^{-2}= \frac{\pi ^{2}}{6}$, which solves the famous Basel problem. We first provide…
