We study the conditional upper bounds and extreme values of derivatives of the Riemann zeta function and Dirichlet $L$-functions near the 1-line. Let $\ell$ be a fixed natural number. We show that, if $|\sigma-1|\ll1/\log_2t$, then…

We revisit a representation for the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$ expressed in terms of normalised incomplete gamma functions given by the author and S. Cang in Methods Appl. Anal. {\bf 4} (1997) 449--470. Use of the uniform asymptotics…

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…

The monotonicity of the Mittag-Leffler function $E_{\alpha}$ with respect to the parameter $\alpha$ is investigated, via some convex ordering properties for related random variables. In particular, it is shown that the mapping…

The aim of this paper is to develop analytic techniques to deal with certain monotonicity of combinatorial sequences. (1) A criterion for the monotonicity of the function $\sqrt[x]{f(x)}$ is given, which is a continuous analog for one…

For $0\neq x>-1$ let $$\Delta(x)={{\ln \Gamma(x+1)} \over x}.$$ Recently Adell and Alzer proved the complete monotonicity of $\Delta'$ on $(-1,\infty)$ by giving an integral representation of $(-1)^n \Delta^{(n+1)}(x)$ in terms of the…

In this paper, we use the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(x)$ and the Bessel zeta function $\zeta_{\mu}(x)$ to study the log-behavior of combinatorial sequences. We prove that $\zeta(x)$ is log-convex for $x>1$. As a consequence, we deduce…

We intimate deeper connections between the Riemann zeta and gamma functions than often reported and further derive a new formula for expressing the value of $\zeta(2n+1)$ in terms of zeta at other fractional points. This paper also…

It is shown that the absolute values of Riemann's zeta function and two related functions strictly decrease when the imaginary part of the argument is fixed to any number with absolute value at least 8 and the real part of the argument is…

The functional equations of the Riemann zeta function, the Hurwitz zeta function, and the Lerch zeta function have been well known for a long time, and there is great importance in studying these zeta functions. For example, fundamental…

In the article, a notion "logarithmically absolutely monotonic function" is introduced, an inclusion that a logarithmically absolutely monotonic function is also absolutely monotonic is revealed, the logarithmically complete monotonicity…

It is proved that if $T$ is sufficiently large, then uniformly for all positive integers $\ell \leqslant (\log T) / (\log_2 T)$, we have \begin{equation*} \max_{T\leqslant t\leqslant 2T}\left|\zeta^{(\ell)}\Big(1+it\Big)\right| \geqslant…

In this article, logarithmically complete monotonicity properties of some functions such as $\frac1{[\Gamma(x+1)]^{1/x}}$, $\frac{[{\Gamma(x+\alpha+1)}]^{1/(x+\alpha)}}{[{\Gamma(x+1)}]^{1/x}}$, $\frac{[\Gamma(x+1)]^{1/x}}{(x+1)^\alpha}$ and…

In this note, we prove that for all $x \in (0 , 1)$, we have: $$ \log\Gamma(x) = \frac{1}{2} \log\pi + \pi \boldsymbol{\eta} \left(\frac{1}{2} - x\right) - \frac{1}{2} \log\sin(\pi x) + \frac{1}{\pi} \sum_{n = 1}^{\infty} \frac{\log n}{n}…

A recently published result states inequalities of the harmonic mean of the digamma function. In this work, we prove among others results that for all positive real numbers $x\neq 1$, $$-\gamma<-\gamma…

In this paper, we focus on the explicit expression of an extended version of Riemann zeta function. We use two different methods, Mellin inversion formula and Cauchy's residue theorem, to calculate a Mellin-Barnes type integral of the…

We review generalized zeta functions built over the Riemann zeros (in short: "superzeta" functions). They are symmetric functions of the zeros that display a wealth of explicit properties, fully matching the much more elementary Hurwitz…

We define the generalized-Euler-constant function $\gamma(z)=\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} z^{n-1} (\frac{1}{n}-\log \frac{n+1}{n})$ when $|z|\leq 1$. Its values include both Euler's constant $\gamma=\gamma(1)$ and the "alternating Euler constant"…

The renormalization of MZV was until now carried out by algebraic means. We show that renormalization in general, of the multiple zeta functions in particular, is more than mere convention. We show that simple calculus methods allow us to…

Let $\Gamma$ be a group and $r_n(\Gamma)$ the number of its $n$-dimensional irreducible complex representations. We define and study the associated representation zeta function $\calz_\Gamma(s) = \suml^\infty_{n=1} r_n(\Gamma)n^{-s}$. When…
