The sum formula is a basic identity of multiple zeta values that expresses a Riemann zeta value as a homogeneous sum of multiple zeta values of a given dimension. This formula was already known to Euler in the dimension two case,…

In this paper we study restricted sum formulas involving alternating Euler sums which are defined by \zeta(s_1,...,s_{d};\epsilon_1,...,\epsilon_d)=\sum_{n_1>...>n_d\ge 1}\frac{\epsilon_1^{n_1}... \epsilon_{d}^{n_d}}{n_1^{s_1}...…

We present a new proof of Euler's formulas for $\zeta(2k)$, where $k = 1,2,3,...$, which uses only the defining properties of the Bernoulli polynomials, obtaining the value of $\zeta(2k)$ by summing a telescoping series. Only basic…

We consider partial sums of a weighted Steinhaus random multiplicative function and view this as a model for the Riemann zeta function. We give a description of the tails and high moments of this object. Using these we determine the likely…

In this paper, we use methods of exponential sums to derive a formula for estimating effective upper bounds of $|\zeta'(1/2+it)|$. Different effective upper bounds can be obtained by choosing different parameters.
