Let phi denote Euler's phi function. For a fixed odd prime we give an asymptotic series expansion in the sense of Poincare for the number E_q(x) of n<=x such that q does not divide phi(n). Thereby we improve on a recent theorem of B.K.…

We consider the Dirichlet series associated to the number of representations of an integer as the sum of primes. Assuming the Riemann hypothesis on the distribution of the zeros of the Riemann zeta function we obtain the domain of…

A previously established correspondence between definite-parity real functions and inner analytic functions is generalized to real functions without definite parity properties. The set of inner analytic functions that corresponds to the set…

Here, we study both analytically and numerically, an integral $Z(\sigma,r)$ related to the mean value of a generalized moment of Riemann's zeta function. Analytically, we predict finite, but discontinuous values and verify the prediction…

We study the distribution of large (and small) values of several families of $L$-functions on a line $\text{Re(s)}=\sigma$ where $1/2<\sigma<1$. We consider the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$ in the $t$-aspect, Dirichlet $L$-functions in…

Assuming the generalized Riemann hypothesis and a bound for the negative discrete moments of the Riemann zeta function (resp. Dirichlet $L$-functions), we prove the existence of a logarithmic limiting distribution for the normalized partial…

In this paper, we study the number of additional zeros of Dirichlet $L$-function caused by multiplicity by using Asymptotic Large Sieve. Then in asymptotic terms we prove that there are more than 80.124% of zeros of the family of Dirichlet…

We give explicit formulae for all of the terms in the asymptotic expansion of the mean fourth power of the Riemann zeta-function on the critical line.

A practical method to compute the Riemann zeta function is presented. The method can compute $\zeta(1/2+it)$ at any $\lfloor T^{1/4} \rfloor$ points in $[T,T+T^{1/4}]$ using an average time of $T^{1/4+o(1)}$ per point. This is the same…

We establish pointwise convergence for nonconventional ergodic averages taken along $\lfloor p^c\rfloor$, where $p$ is a prime number and $c\in(1,4/3)$ on $L^r$, $r\in(1,\infty)$. In fact, we consider averages along more general sequences…

We study the variance of sums of the $k$-fold divisor function $d_k(n)$ over sparse arithmetic progressions, with averaging over both residue classes and moduli. In a restricted range, we confirm an averaged version of a recent conjecture…

A representation for the Riemann zeta function valid for arbitrary complex $s=\sigma+it$ is $\zeta(s)=\sum_{n=0}^\infty A(n,s)$, where \[A(n,s)=\frac{2^{-n-1}}{1-2^{1-s}} \sum_{k=0}^n \left(\!\begin{array}{c}n\\k\end{array}\!\right)…

In this paper, we give an explicit formula of the Shintani double zeta functions with any ramification in the most general setting of adeles over an arbitrary number field. Three applications of the explicit formula are given. First, we…

Let $q\ge3$ be an integer, $\chi$ denote a Dirichlet character modulo $q$, for any real number $a\ge 0$, we define the generalized Dirichlet $L$-functions $$ L(s,\chi,a)=\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{\chi(n)}{(n+a)^s}, $$ where $s=\sigma+it$…

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…

Let $f$ be a real arithmetic function and let $g:[1,\infty[\to{\mathbb R}$ be a smooth function. We describe two emblematic instances in which saddle-point estimates may be used to evaluate the frequency, on the set of integers $n\leqslant…

The goal of this expository article is a fairly self-contained account of some averaging processes of functions along sequences of the form $(\alpha^n x)^{}_{n\in\mathbb{N}}$, where $\alpha$ is a fixed real number with $| \alpha | > 1$ and…

Motivated by a probabilistic analysis of a simple game (itself inspired by a problem in computational learning theory) we introduce the \emph{moment zeta function} of a probability distribution, and study in depth some asymptotic properties…

We provide examples of multiplicative functions $f$ supported on the $k$-free integers such that at primes $f(p)=\pm 1$ and such that the partial sums of $f$ up to $x$ are $o(x^{1/k})$. Further, if we assume the Generalized Riemann…

We provide an asymptotic expansion for the mean-value of the logarithm of the middle prime factor of an integer, defined according to multiplicity or not, thus generalising a recent study of McNew, Pollack, and Singha Roy. This yields an…
