We represent the Riemann zeta function in the half-plane $\Re s >1$ via series whose terms admit geometrically decreasing bounds. Due to an underlying recurrence relation, which is used to compute coefficients entering into the terms, the…
In this paper, we give a short elementary proof of the well known Euler's recurrence formula for the Riemann zeta function at positive even integers and integral representations of the Riemann zeta function at positive integers and at…
We discover new analytic properties of classical partial and false theta functions and their potential applications to representation theory of W-algebras and vertex algebras in general. More precisely, motivated by clues from conformal…
This note proposes an improved estimate of the coefficient t(n) of the discriminant modular form using elementary method. It improves a well known estimate of the tau function t(n) by Deligne.
For a prime $p\equiv 3$ $(\text{mod }4)$ and $m\ge 2$, Romik raised a question about whether the Taylor coefficients around $\sqrt{-1}$ of the classical Jacobi theta function $\theta_3$ eventually vanish modulo $p^m$. This question can be…
A novel representation of a quasi-periodic modified von Mangoldt function L(n) on prime numbers and its decomposition into Fourier series has been investigated. We focus on some particular quantities characterizing the modified von Mangoldt…
The basic properties of the Temperley-Lieb algebra $TL_n$ with parameter $\beta = q + q^{-1}$, for $q$ any non-zero complex number, are reviewed in a pedagogical way. The link and standard (cell) modules that appear in numerous physical…
In the asymptotic analysis of regular sequences as defined by Allouche and Shallit, it is usually advisable to study their summatory function because the original sequence has a too fluctuating behaviour. It might be that the process of…
The non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function and the prime numbers can be plotted by a modified von Mangoldt function. The series of non-trivial zeta zeros and prime numbers can be given explicitly by superposition of harmonic waves.…
The partition function of the random energy model at inverse temperature $\beta$ is a sum of random exponentials $Z_N(\beta)=\sum_{k=1}^N \exp(\beta \sqrt{n} X_k)$, where $X_1,X_2,...$ are independent real standard normal random variables…
For a half-integral weight modular form $f = \sum_{n=1}^{\infty} a_f(n)n^{\frac{k-1}{2}} q^n$ of weight $k = l +\frac{1}{2}$ on $\Gamma_0(4)$ such that $a_f(n)$ ($n$ $\in$ $\mathbb{N}$) are real, we prove for a fixed suitable natural number…
A modular grid is a pair of sequences $(f_m)_m$ and $(g_n)_n$ of weakly holomorphic modular forms such that for almost all $m$ and $n$, the coefficient of $q^n$ in $f_m$ is the negative of the coefficient of $q^m$ in $g_n$. Zagier proved…
We consider a class of $n^{\text{th}}$-order linear ordinary differential equations with a large parameter $u$. Analytic solutions of these equations can be described by (divergent) formal series in descending powers of $u$. We demonstrate…
The purpose of this article is to give a simple and explicit construction of mock modular forms whose shadows are Eisenstein series of arbitrary integral weight, level, and character. As application, we construct forms whose shadows are…
In this paper, we study sign changes of weakly holomorphic modular forms which are given as $\eta$-quotients. We give representative examples for forms of negative weight, weight zero, and positive weight.
The bivariate series $\theta (q,x):=\sum _{j=0}^{\infty}q^{j(j+1)/2}x^j$ defines a {\em partial theta function}. For fixed $q$ ($|q|<1$), $\theta (q,.)$ is an entire function. We prove a property of stabilization of the coefficients of the…
This paper presents some results on a well-known problem in Algebraic Signal Sampling and in other areas of applied mathematics: reconstruction of piecewise-smooth functions from their integral measurements (like moments, Fourier…
We consider a Dirichlet series $\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}a_n^{-s}$, where $a_n$ satisfies a linear recurrence of arbitrary degree with integer coefficients. Under suitable hypotheses, we prove that it has a meromorphic continuation to the complex…
Quantum Electrodynamics (QED) renormalizaion is a paradox. It uses the Euler-Mascheroni constant, which is defined by a conditionally convergent series. But Riemann's series theorem proves that any conditionally convergent series can be…
It is a well known fact that for periodic measurable $f$ and rapidly increasing $(n_k)_{k \geq 1}$ the sequence $(f(n_kx))_{k\ge 1}$ behaves like a sequence of independent, identically distributed random variables. For example, if $f$ is a…
