We investigate the values of the Riemann zeta function at odd integers and the Dirichlet beta function at even integers, by collecting several distinct analytic frameworks converging to these values, thus providing a unifying perspective.…

We give an elementary proof of some identities that express the squares of Riemann zeta function at integer points in terms of the series involving hyperbolic functions, digamma function, Bernoulli numbers etc. In this version, inaccuracies…

We propose a relation between values of the Riemann zeta function $\zeta$ and a family of integrals. This results in an integral representation for $\zeta(2p)$, where $p$ is a positive integer, and an expression of $\zeta(2p+1)$ involving…

Euler discovered a formula for expressing the value of the Riemann zeta function for all even positive integer arguments. A closed-form expression for the Riemann zeta function for all odd integer arguments, based on the values of the…

We explore the operad of finite posets and its algebras. We use order polytopes to investigate the combinatorial properties of zeta values. By generalizing a family of zeta value identities, we demonstrate the applicability of this…

Ramanujan derived the well known divergent-sum of integers in more than one way. We generalise the informal method to higher powers of the Riemann zeta function through a study of the Eulerian numbers in particular. Within the context of…

In this paper, the authors present sharp approximations in terms of sine function and polynomials for the so-called Ramanujan constant (or the Ramanujan $R$-function) $R(a)$, by showing some monotonicity, concavity and convexity properties…

Already in 1734 Euler found a short explicit formula for the value of Riemann zeta function Zeta(s) when the argument s equals a positive integer 2n where n=1,2,3,. No such formula exists for odd positive integer arguments of Zeta. The…

Given a probability measure $\mu$ with infinite support on the unit circle $\partial\mathbb{D}=\{z:|z|=1\}$, we consider a sequence of paraorthogonal polynomials $\h_n(z,\lambda)$ vanishing at $z=\lambda$ where $\lambda \in \T$ is fixed. We…

We give a new proof of the identity $\zeta(\{2,1\}^l)=\zeta(\{3\}^l)$ of the multiple zeta values, where $l=1,2,\dots$, using generating functions of the underlying generalized polylogarithms. In the course of study we arrive at…

In this expository article, we discuss the contributions made by several mathematicians with regard to a famous formula of Ramanujan for odd zeta values. The goal is to complement the excellent survey by Berndt and Straub…

For the solution $\{u_n\}_{n=0}^\infty$ to the polynomial recursion $(n+1)^5u_{n+1}-3(2n+1)(3n^2+3n+1)(15n^2+15n+4)u_n -3n^3(3n-1)(3n+1)u_{n-1}=0$, where $n=1,2,...$, with the initial data $u_0=1$, $u_1=12$, we prove that all $u_n$ are…

We generalise a necessary and sufficient condition given by Cohn for all the zeros of a self-inversive polynomial to be on the unit circle. Our theorem implies some sufficient conditions found by Lakatos, Losonczi and Schinzel. We apply our…

Inspired by a famous identity of Ramanujan, we propose a general formula linearizing the convolution of Dirichlet series as the sum of Dirichlet series with modified weights; its specialization produces new identities and recovers several…

We mainly introduce two new kinds of numbers given by $$R_n=\sum_{k=0}^n\binom nk\binom{n+k}k\frac1{2k-1}\quad\ (n=0,1,2,...)$$ and $$S_n=\sum_{k=0}^n\binom nk^2\binom{2k}k(2k+1)\quad\ (n=0,1,2,...).$$ We find that such numbers have many…

In a recent work, Dancs and He found an Euler-type formula for $\,\zeta{(2\,n+1)}$, $\,n\,$ being a positive integer, which contains a series they could not reduce to a finite closed-form. This open problem reveals a greater complexity in…

We establish two general identities for Bernoulli and Euler polynomials, which are of a new type and have many consequences. The most striking result in this paper is as follows: If $n$ is a positive integer, $r+s+t=n$ and $x+y+z=1$, then…

A series of formula is presented that are all inspired by the Ramanujan Notebooks [6]. One of them appears in the notebooks II about Zeta(3). That formula inspired others that appeared in 1998, 2006 and 2009 on the author's website and…

The formal weight enumerators were first introduced by M. Ozeki. They form a ring of invariant polynomials which is similar to that of the weight enumerators of Type II codes. Later, the zeta functions for linear codes were discovered and…

A polynomial x^3+px^2+qx+r with the condition pr^(1/3)+ 3r^(2/3)+q=0 we call a Ramanujan cubic polynomial (RCP). We study different interest properties of RCP, in particular, an important role of a parameter pq/r. We prove some new…
