We present a completely explicit transcendence measure for $e$. This is a continuation and an improvement to the works of Borel, Mahler and Hata on the topic. Furthermore, we also prove a transcendence measure for an arbitrary positive…
In this paper, we consider the poly-Bernoulli numbers and polynomials of the second kind and presents new and explicit formulae for calculating the poly-Bernoulli numbers of the second kind and the Stirling numbers of the second kind.
In this paper we investigate the distribution of zeros of Boubaker polynomials.
This note reveals a mysterious link between the partition function of certain dimer models on 2-dimensional tori and the $L$-function of their spectral curves. It also relates the partition function in certain families of dimer models to…
We discuss various aspects of representation of a polynomial as a sum of monomials (for example, uniqueness of such representation and related estimations).
We discuss some (conjectural) evaluations of $L$-values attached to elliptic curves of conductors 15, 21, 24 and 32 as "hypergeometric periods". These numerical observations are motivated by the Mahler measures of three-variable…
Let g be a nonconstant rational map from the projective line to itself that has degree greater than one and is defined over a number field. The map g gives rise to generalized Mahler measures for polynomials in one variable. We use…
The multivariate integer Chebyshev problem is to find polynomials with integer coefficients that minimize the supremum norm over a compact set in $\C^d.$ We study this problem on general sets, but devote special attention to product sets…
In this note, I will discuss a possible relation between the Mahler measure of the colored Jones polynomial and the volume conjecture. In particular, I will study the colored Jones polynomial of the figure-eight knot on the unit circle. I…
The purpose of this paper is to construct q-Euler numbers and polynomials by using p-adic q-integral equations on Zp. Finally, we will give some interesting formulae related to these q-Euler numbers and polynomials.
The purpose of this paper is to generalize this relation of symmetry between the power sum polynomials and the generalized Euler polynomials to the relation between the power sum polynomials and the generalized higher-order Euler…
We estimate the frequency of singular matrices and of matrices of a given rank whose entries are parametrised by arbitrary polynomials over the integers and modulo a prime $p$. In particular, in the integer case, we improve a recent bound…
In the article we develop Euler-Lagrange method and calculate all the roots of an arbitrary complex polynomial $P(z)$ on the base of calculation (similar to the Bernoulli-Aitken-Nikiporets methods) of the limits of ratios of Hadamard…
This is the first part of a work devoted to the study of linear Mahler systems in several variables from the perspective of transcendence and algebraic independence. We prove two main results concerning systems that are regular singular at…
In this paper we study Appell polynomials by connecting them to random variables. This probabilistic approach yields, e.g., the mean value property which is fundamental in the sense that many other properties can be derived from it. We also…
The purpose of this short note is to give a proof of the following identity between (logarithmic) Mahler measures m(y^2+2xy+y-x^3-2x^2-x)=5/7*m(y^2+4xy+y-x^3+x^2) which is one of many examples that arise from the comparison of Mahler…
In this paper, we provide a probabilistic interpretation of the Volkenborn integral; this allows us to extend results by T. Kim et al about sums of Euler numbers to sums of Bernoulli numbers. We also obtain a probabilistic representation of…
We propose some conjectures on the integrality properties related to the variation of Mahler measures, inspired by the results in the elliptic curve case by Rodriguez Villegas, Stienstra and Zagier.
We give an upper bound for the zero order of the difference between a Mahler function and an algebraic function. This complements estimates of Nesterenko, Nishioka, and T\"opfer, among others, who considered polynomials evaluated at Mahler…
In this note we calculate the multiplier ideal associated to an arbitrary monomial ideal in C^n. We discuss applications to the calculation of log canonical thresholds.
