Physicists become acquainted with special functions early in their studies. Consider our perennial model, the harmonic oscillator, for which we need Hermite functions, or the Laguerre functions in quantum mechanics. Here we choose a…

Recently, K. Bringmann, P. Guerzhoy, Z. Kent and K. Ono studied the connection between Eichler integrals and the holomorphic parts of harmonic weak Maass forms on the full modular group. In this article, we extend their result to more…

We provide a proof of a conjecture made by Richard McIntosh in 1996 on the values of the Franel integrals, $$\int_0^1((ax))((bx))((cx))((ex))\,dx,$$ where $((x))$ is the first periodic Bernoulli function. Secondly, we extend our ideas to…

We investigate Newton's method applied to any odd or any even elliptic function with an arbitrary period lattice. For any function of this type whose set of poles coincides with its period lattice, we show that the Julia set of its Newton…

We denote functions mapping n to the Fourier coefficient of q^n in the expansion of a cusp form as Ramanujan functions. We empirically study the eigenvalues of determinants that represent values of these Ramanujan functions. In some cases,…

Marvin Knopp developed the theory of automorphic integrals, which generalize automorphic forms; each automorphic integral has an additional period function in its automorphic relation. The period functions satisfy relations that arise from…

This research article provides an unconditional proof of an inequality proposed by Srinivasa Ramanujan involving the Prime Counting Function $\pi(x)$, \begin{align*} (\pi(x))^{2}<\frac{ex}{\log x}\pi\left(\frac{x}{e}\right) \end{align*} for…

A new class of integrals involving the product of $\Xi$-functions associated with primitive Dirichlet characters is considered. These integrals give rise to transformation formulas of the type $F(z, \alpha,\chi)=F(-z,…

The main aim of this note is to introduce the notion of an almost anti-periodic function in Banach space. We prove some characterizations for this class of functions, investigating also its relationship with the classes of anti-periodic…

We examine an unstudied manuscript of N.~S.~Koshliakov over $150$ pages long and containing the theory of two interesting generalizations $\zeta_p(s)$ and $\eta_p(s)$ of the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$, which we call \emph{Koshliakov…

Ramanujan's lost notebook contains many mock theta functions and mock theta function identities not mentioned in his last letter to Hardy. For example, we find the four tenth-order mock theta functions and their six identities. The six…

We develop a gradient-flow theory for time-dependent functionals defined in abstract metric spaces. Global well-posedness and asymptotic behavior of solutions are provided. Conditions on functionals and metric spaces allow to consider the…

Let $Q(x)$ be a quadratic form over $\mathbb{R}^n$. The Epstein zeta function associated to $Q(x)$ is a well known function in number theory. We generalize the construction of the Epstein zeta function to a class of function $\phi(x)$…

It is shown how many of the partial theta function identities in Ramanujan's lost notebook can be generalized to infinite families of such identities. Key in our construction is the Bailey lemma and a new generalization of the Jacobi triple…

In this article, we define functions analogous to Ramanujan's function $f(n)$ defined in his famous paper "Modular equations and approximations to $\pi$". We then use these new functions to study Ramanujan's series for $1/\pi$ associated…

We define Hecke correspondences and Hecke operators on unitary RZ spaces and study their basic geometric properties, including a commutativity conjecture on Hecke operators. Then we formulate the Arithmetic Fundamental Lemma conjecture for…

The Mordell-Tornheim zeta function and the Herglotz-Zagier function $F(x)$ are two important functions in Mathematics. By generalizing a special case of the former, namely $\Theta(z, x)$, we show that the theories of these functions are…

A period of a rational integral is the result of integrating, with respect to one or several variables, a rational function over a closed path. This work focuses particularly on periods depending on a parameter: in this case the period…

It is known that among Siegel modular forms of degree $2$ and level $1$ the only functions that violate the Ramanujan conjecture are Saito-Kurokawa lifts of modular forms of level $1$. These are precisely the functions whose Fourier…

Every continuous-time flow on a topological space has associated to it a Koopman operator, which operates by time-shifts on various spaces of functions, such as $C^r$, $L^2$, or functions of bounded variation. An eigenfunction of the vector…
