Sign changes in sums of arithmetic functions and their inverses are a subtle topic with room to grow new results. Suppose that $S_f(x) := \sum_{n \leq x} f(n)$ is the summatory function of some arithmetic function $f$ such that $f(1) \neq…

We study the behaviour of the dynamical zeta function and the orbit Dirichlet series for products of maps. The behaviour under products of the radius of convergence for the zeta function, and the abscissa of convergence for the orbit…

In this paper we establish some convergence results for Riemann-Liouville, Caputo, and Caputo-Fabrizio fractional operators when the order of differentiation approaches one. We consider some errors given by $\left|\left| D^{1-\al}f…

Let $p,x$ be real numbers, and $s$ be a complex number, with $\Re(s)>1-r$, $p\geq 1$, and $x+1>0$. The zeta function $Z^{\bf\alpha}_p(s;x)$ is defined by $$ Z^{\bf\alpha}_p(s;x) =\frac{1}{\Gamma(s)}\int^\infty_0 \frac{e^{-xt}}…

A semi-analytic method to compute the first coefficients of the renormalization group functions on a random lattice is introduced. It is used to show that the two-dimensional $O(N)$ non-linear $\sigma$-model regularized on a random lattice…

A simple proof of the classical subconvexity bound $\zeta(1/2+it) \ll_\epsilon t^{1/6+\epsilon}$ for the Riemann zeta-function is given, and estimation by more refined techniques is discussed. The connections between the Dirichlet divisor…

When $0<\alpha<1$, the approximation for the Caputo derivative $$y^{(\alpha)}(x) = \frac{1}{\Gamma(2-\alpha)h^\alpha}\sum_{k=0}^n \sigma_k^{(\alpha)} y(x-kh)+O\bigl(h^{2-\alpha}\bigr),$$ where $\sigma_0^{(\alpha)} = 1, \sigma_n^{(\alpha)} =…

We survey arithmetic and asymptotic properties of the alternating sum-of-divisors function $\beta$ defined by $\beta(p^a)=p^a-p^{a-1}+p^{a-2}-...+(-1)^a$ for every prime power $p^a$ ($a\ge 1$), and extended by multiplicativity. Certain open…

Let $\spt(n)$ be the number of smallest parts in the partitions of $n$. In this paper, we give some generalized Euler-like recursive formulas for the $\spt$ function in terms of Hecke trace of values of special twisted quadratic Dirichlet…

We prove an exact formula for the variance of the divisor function over short intervals in $\mathcal{A} := \mathbb{F}_q [T]$, where $q$ is a prime power. A slight adaption of the proof allows us to obtain an exact formula for correlations…

The alternating zeta function zeta*(s) = 1 - 2^{-s} + 3^{-s} - ... is related to the Riemann zeta function by the identity (1-2^{1-s})zeta(s) = zeta*(s). We deduce the vanishing of zeta*(s) at each nonreal zero of the factor 1-2^{1-s}…

Answering a question left open in previous research, we study the enumeration of poles of the zeta function $\varphi(s)$ associated to an integer linear recurrence sequence $\{a_n\}$. This enumeration can count poles more than once, and we…

We survey old and recent results on the problem of finding a complete set of rules describing the behavior of the power function, i.e. the function which takes a cardinal $\kappa$ to the cardinality of its power $2^\kappa$.

Let $1/2\leq\beta<1$, $p$ be a generic prime number and $f_\beta$ be a random multiplicative function supported on the squarefree integers such that $(f_\beta(p))_{p}$ is an i.i.d. sequence of random variables with distribution…

The practical usefulness of Levin-type nonlinear sequence transformations as numerical tools for the summation of divergent series or for the convergence acceleration of slowly converging series, is nowadays beyond dispute. Weniger's…

In this paper, we introduce and study the Dirichlet series enumerating (proper) equivalence classes of full rank subforms/sublattices of a given quadratic form/lattice, focusing on the positive definite binary case. We obtain formulas…

We introduce a q-deformation of Dirichlet series : for each s, an operator acting on formal power series in q without constant term. We relate Bernoulli-Carlitz numbers to the q-Riemann Zeta operators for negative integers, evaluated on…

We prove an explicit integral formula for computing the product of two shifted Riemann zeta functions everywhere in the complex plane. We show that this formula implies the existence of infinite families of exact exponential sum identities…
