Sums of the form $\sum_{q \leq N_1 < \cdots < N_m \leq n}{a_{(m);N_m}\cdots a_{(2);N_2}a_{(1);N_1}}$ date back to the sixteen century when Vi\`ete illustrated that the relation linking the roots and coefficients of a polynomial had this…

In this paper we define a symmetric zeta function. We show that it can be analytically continued to a meromorphic function on $\mathbb{C}^3$ with only simple poles at some special hyperplanes. We also calculate the value of a multiple…

Ramanujan studied the analytic properties of many $q$-hypergeometric series. Of those, mock theta functions have been particularly intriguing, and by work of Zwegers, we now know how these curious $q$-series fit into the theory of…

We prove new double summation hypergeometric $q$-series representations for several families of partitions, including those that appear in the famous product identities of G\"ollnitz, Gordon, and Schur. We give several different proofs for…

We provide several properties of the geometric polynomials discussed in earlier works of the authors. Further, the geometric polynomials are used to obtain a closed form evaluation of certain series involving Riemann's zeta function.

Partial zeta functions of algebraic varieties over finite fields generalize the classical zeta function by allowing each variable to be defined over a possibly different extension field of a fixed finite field. Due to this extra variation…

We introduce a new generalization of Stirling numbers of the second kind and analyze their properties, including generating functions, integral representations, and recurrence relations. These numbers are used to approximate Riemann zeta…

We introduce certain lattice sums associated with hyperplane arrangements, which are (multiple) sums running over integers, and can be regarded as generalizations of certain linear combinations of zeta-functions of root systems. We also…

We obtain a condition describing when the quasimodular forms given by the Bloch-Okounkov theorem as $q$-brackets of certain functions on partitions are actually modular. This condition involves the kernel of an operator {\Delta}. We…

In this paper we briefly review the main idea of the localization technique and its extension suitable in supersymmetric gauge field theory. We analyze the partition function of the vector multiplets with supercharges and its blocks on the…

We prove two conjectures on the spaces generated by multiple $q$-zeta values. More precisely, we show that the spaces $Z_q^{\mathrm{o}}$ and $Z_{q,1}^{\mathrm{o}}$ already generate the larger spaces $Z_q$ and $Z_{q,1}$, respectively. Our…

Multiple zeta values are real numbers defined by an infinite series generalizing values of the Riemann zeta function at positive integers. Finite truncations of this series are called multiple harmonic sums and are known to have interesting…
