In this paper, we are interested by the cotangent sum c0(q/p) related to the Estermann zeta function for the special case when q = 1 and get explicit formula for its series expansion, which represents an improvement of the identity (2:1)…
We present new sharper lower and upper bounds for the non-zero Bernoulli numbers using Euler's formula for the Riemann zeta function. In particular, we determine the best possible constants $ \alpha $ and $ \beta $ such that the double…
A proof of the Riemann hypothesis using the reflection principle is presented.
The Riemann zeta identity at even integers of Lettington, along with his other Bernoulli and zeta relations, are generalized. Other corresponding recurrences and determinant relations are illustrated. Another consequence is the application…
Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis, we prove that $$ N_1(T) = \frac{T}{2\pi}\log \frac{T}{4\pi e} + O\bigg(\frac{\log T}{\log\log T}\bigg), $$ where $N_1(T)$ is the number of zeros of $\zeta'(s)$ in the region $0<\Im s\le T$.
We compute the coefficients of the polynomials $C_n(q)$ defined by the equation \begin{equation*} 1 + \sum_{n\geq 1} \, \frac{C_n(q)}{q^n} \, t^n = \prod_{i\geq 1}\, \frac{(1-t^i)^2}{1-(q+q^{-1})t^i + t^{2i}} \, . \end{equation*} As an…
Using cyclotomic multiple zeta values of level $8$, we confirm and generalize several conjectural identities on infinite series with summands involving $\binom{2k}k8^k/(\binom{3k}k\binom{6k}{3k})$. For example, we prove that…

We exploit some properties of the Hurwitz zeta function $\zeta (n,x)$ in order to study sums of the form $\frac{1}{\pi ^{n}}\sum_{j=-\infty}^{\infty}1/(jk+l)^{n}$ and $\frac{1}{\pi ^{n}}\sum_{j=-\infty}^{\infty}(-1)^{j}/(jk+l)^{n}$ for $%…

Let $\Theta$ denote the supremum of the real parts of the zeros of the Riemann zeta function. We demonstrate that $\Theta=1$, which entails the existence of infinitely many Riemann zeros off the critical line (thus disproving the Riemann…
Let $n$ be an integer and $W_n$ be the Lambert $W$ function. Let $\log$ denote the natural logarithm so that $\delta=-W_n(-\log2)/\log2$. Given that $a$ and $r$ are respectively the first term and the constant ratio of an infinite geometric…
Under the Riemann Hypothesis, we prove for any natural number $r$ there exist infinitely many large natural numbers $n$ such that $(\gamma_{n+r}-\gamma_n)/(2\pi /\log \gamma_n) > r + \Theta\sqrt{r}$ and $(\gamma_{n+r}-\gamma_n)/(2\pi /\log…
In this note we show how the irrationality measure of $\zeta(s) = \pi^2/6$ can be used to obtain explicit lower bounds for $\pi(x)$. We analyze the key ingredients of the proof of the finiteness of the irrationality measure, and show how to…
In this paper, we shall prove the equality \[ \zeta(3,\{2\}^{n},1,2)=\zeta(\{2\}^{n+3})+2\zeta(3,3,\{2\}^{n}) \] conjectured by Hoffman using certain identities among iterated integrals on $\mathbb{P}^{1}\setminus\{0,1,\infty,z\}$.
We exploit transformations relating generalized $q$-series, infinite products, sums over integer partitions, and continued fractions, to find partition-theoretic formulas to compute the values of constants such as $\pi$, and to connect sums…
Let $\lambda$ the Barban--Vehov weights, defined in $(1)$. Let $X\ge z_1\ge100$ and $z_2=z_1^\tau$ for some $\tau>1$. We prove that \begin{equation*} \sum_{n\le X}\frac{1}{n}\Bigl(\sum_{\substack{d|n}}\lambda_d\Bigr)^2 \le f(\tau)\frac{\log…

Euler's sum formula and its multi-variable and weighted generalizations form a large class of the identities of multiple zeta values. In this paper we prove a family of identities involving Bernoulli numbers and apply them to obtain…
