We introduce and study finite analogues of Euler's constant in the same setting as finite multiple zeta values. We define a couple of candidate values from the perspectives of a ``regularized value of $\zeta(1)$'' and of Mascheroni's and…

Beuker's [2] considers the following integral $$ \int_{0}^{1}\int_{0}^{1} \frac{-\log xy}{1-xy} P_n(x)P_n(y)\ dx dy$$If $d_n=\text{LCM}(1,2,...,n)$, then $$ 0<\frac{|A_n+B_n\zeta(3)|}{d_n^3}<2(\sqrt{2}-1)^{4n} \zeta(3) $$ for some…

We believe that Euler constant is not just the "renormalized" value of the Riemann zeta function in 1. In a sense that we shall clarify it is in fact the normal and natural value of zeta of 1. In this paper we first propose a limit…

In a recent paper Kachi and Tzermias give elementary proofs of four product formulas involving zeta(3), pi, and Catalan's constant. They indicate that they were not able to deduce these products directly from the values of a function…

For $s \in {\mathbb{C}}$ and $0 < a <1$, let $\zeta (s,a)$ and ${\rm{Li}}_s (e^{2\pi ia})$ be the Hurwitz and periodic zeta functions, repectively. For $0 < a \le 1/2$, put $Z(s,a) := \zeta (s,a) + \zeta (s,1-a)$, $P(s,a) := {\rm{Li}}_s…

In this paper, we generalize the partial fraction decomposition which is fundamental in the theory of multiple zeta values, and prove a relation between Tornheim's double zeta functions of three complex variables. As applications, we give…

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…

It is proved that $$\int_{T}^{2T} \left|\frac{\zeta\left(\frac{1}{2}+{\rm i} t\right)}{\zeta\left(1+2{\rm i} t\right)}\right|^2 {\rm d} t = \frac{1}{\zeta(2)} T \log T + \left( \frac{\log \frac{2}{\pi} + 2\gamma -1 }{\zeta(2)} -4…

Let $\Theta_{3} (z):= \sum_{n\in\mathbb{Z}} \exp (i \pi n^2 z)$ be the standard Jacobi theta function, which is holomorphic and zero-free in the upper half-plane $\mathbb{H}$, and takes positive values along the positive imaginary axis. We…

Starting from the classical integral representation of the $\zeta(s)$ function introduced by Riemann in 1859, this paper reexamines its analytic symmetry structure. By performing a geometric decomposition of the integral representation, we…

Maximon has recently given an excellent summary of the properties of the Euler dilogarithm function and the frequently used generalizations of the dilogarithm, the most important among them being the polylogarithm function $Li_(z)$. The…

This paper has two parts. The first part surveys Euler's work on the constant gamma=0.57721... bearing his name, together with some of his related work on the gamma function, values of the zeta function and divergent series. The second part…

In this paper, we introduce a class of Dirichlet series defined in terms of the Riemann zeta-function, motivated by the study of their special values, and establish integral representations for these series. We also define an extension of…

This short note for non-experts means to demystify the tasks of evaluating the Riemann Zeta Function at non-positive integers and at even natural numbers, both initially performed by Leonhard Euler. Treading in the footsteps of G. H. Hardy…

Using some transformation formulas of the generalized hypergeometric series $\,_3F_2$, we give another proof of D. Zagier's evaluation formula of the multiple zeta values $\zeta(2,...,2,3,2,...,2)$.

We introduce the method of desingularization of multi-variable multiple zeta-functions (of the generalized Euler-Zagier type), under the motivation of finding suitable rigorous meaning of the values of multiple zeta-functions at…

We study logarithmic integrals of the form $\int_0^1 x^i\ln^n(x)\ln^m(1-x)dx$. They are expressed as a rational linear combination of certain rational numbers $(n,m)_i$, which we call tiered binomial coefficients, and products of the zeta…

We consider the sums $S(k)=\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\frac{(-1)^{nk}}{(2n+1)^k}$ and $\zeta(2k)=\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{1}{n^{2k}}$ with $k$ being a positive integer. We evaluate these sums with multiple integration, a modern technique. First, we…

For k <= n, let E(2n,k) be the sum of all multiple zeta values with even arguments whose weight is 2n and whose depth is k. Of course E(2n,1) is the value of the Riemann zeta function at 2n, and it is well known that E(2n,2) = (3/4)E(2n,1).…

Kaneko and Tsumura introduced a new kind of multiple zeta functions $\eta(k_1,\ldots,k_r;s_1,\ldots,s_r)$. This is an analytic function of complex variables $s_1,\ldots,s_r$, while $k_1,\ldots,k_r$ are non-positive integer parameters. In…
