The Ramanujan Machine project detects new expressions related to constants of interest, such as $\zeta$ function values, $\gamma$ and algebraic numbers (to name a few). In particular the project lists a number of conjectures involving even…
In this paper we prove some Ramanujan-type formulas for $1/\pi$ but without using the theory of modular forms. Instead we use the WZ-method created by H. Wilf and D. Zeilberger and find some hypergeometric functions in two variables which…
We have gone back to old methods found in the historical part of Hardy's Divergent Series well before the invention of the modern analytic continuation to use formal manipulation of harmonic sums which produce some interesting formulae.…
Using the WZ-method we find some of the easiest Ramanujan's formulae and also some new interesting Ramanujan-like sums.
Recently, Simon Plouffe has discovered a number of identities for the Riemann zeta function at odd integer values. These identities are obtained numerically and are inspired by a prototypical series for Apery's constant given by Ramanujan:…
In this work we establish some polynomials and entire functions have only real zeros. These polynomials generalize q-Laguerre polynomials $L_{n}^{(\alpha)}(x;q)$, while the entire functions are generalizations of Ramanujan's entire function…
For Hurwitz Zeta function,we consider its Taylor series expansion about various points as an analytic function of second variable in appropriate discs.We show that these Taylor are all polynomials in second variable for a non positive…
We establish the triple integral evaluation \[ \int_{1}^{\infty} \int_{0}^{1} \int_{0}^{1} \frac{dz \, dy \, dx}{x(x+y)(x+y+z)} = \frac{5}{24} \zeta(3), \] as well as the equivalent polylogarithmic double sum \[ \sum_{k=1}^{\infty}…
Let $X$ denote a connected $(q+1)$-regular undirected graph of finite order $n$. The graph $X$ is called Ramanujan whenever $$ |\lambda|\leq 2q^{\frac{1}{2}} $$ for all nontrivial eigenvalues $\lambda$ of $X$. We consider the variant…
In this paper we highlight the connection between Ramanujan cubic polynomials (RCPs) and a class of polynomials, the Shanks cubic polynomials (SCPs), which generate cyclic cubic fields. In this way we provide a new characterization for RCPs…
The main goal of this article is to present an elementary proof of Ramanujan's identity for odd zeta values. Our proof solely relies on a Mittag-Leffler type expansion for hyperbolic cotangent function and Euler's identity for even zeta…
It was observed by Bump et al. that Ehrhart polynomials in a special family exhibit properties similar to the Riemann {\zeta} function. The construction was generalized by Matsui et al. to a larger family of reflexive polytopes coming from…
For a pair of positive integers $n,k$ with $n\geq 2$, in this paper we prove that $$ \sum_{r=1}^k\sum_{|\bf\alpha|=k}{k\choose\bf\alpha} \zeta(n\bf\alpha)=\zeta(n)^k =\sum^k_{r=1}\sum_{|\bf\alpha|=k}…
In \cite{TallaWaffo2025arxiv2511.02843} we introduced even polynomials $\Xi_n,\Lambda_n\in\mathbb{Q}[x]$ arising from integral representations of $\beta(2n)/\pi^{2n-1}$ and $\zeta(2n+1)/\pi^{2n}$. In this paper we give explicit closed…
We study the value-distribution of Dirichlet polynomials on the critical line $\Re(s)=\tfrac{1}{2}$. As a consequence, we prove a corollary on small consecutive gaps between zeros of the Riemann zeta function. We also examine the…
We study rather general multiple zeta-functions whose denominators are given by polynomials. The main aim is to prove explicit formulas for the values of those multiple zeta-functions at non-positive integer points. We first treat the case…
We resolve the Ramsey problem for $\{x,y,z:x+y=p(z)\}$ for all polynomials $p$ over $\mathbb{Z}$. In particular, we characterise all polynomials that are $2$-Ramsey, that is, those $p(z)$ such that any $2$-colouring of $\mathbb{N}$ contains…
Underlying the Riemann Hypothesis there is a question whose full answer still eludes us: what do the zeros of the Riemann zeta function really mean? As a step toward answering this, Andr\'e Weil proposed a series of conjectures that include…
In this shortnote, a series expansion technique introduced recently by Dancs and He for generating Euler-type formulae for odd zeta values $\:\zeta{(2 k +1)}$, $\zeta{(s)}$ being the Riemann zeta function and $k$ a positive integer, is…
Given coprime integers $k, \ell$ with $k > \ell \geqslant 1$ and arbitrary complex polynomials $A(z), B(z)$ with $\deg(A(z)B(z))\geqslant 1$, we consider the polynomial sequence $\{P_n(z)\}$ satisfying a three-term recurrence…
