Spencer Bloch and the author formulated a general conjecture (Tamagawa number conjecture) on the relation between values of zeta functions of motives and arithmetic groups associated to motives. We discuss this conjecture, and describe some…

Riemann zeta function is important in a lot of branches of number theory. With the help of the operator method and several transformation formulas for hypergeometric series, we prove four series involving Riemann zeta function. Two of them…

We propose a conjecture for the exact expression of the dynamical zeta function for a family of birational transformations of two variables, depending on two parameters. This conjectured function is a simple rational expression with integer…

We prove that a certain conjecture holds true and the conjecture states a relationship between the zeta function of a finite category and the Euler characteristic of a finite category.

Let $x\geq 1$ be a large integer, and let $a_0<a_1<\cdots<a_{k-1}$ be a small fixed integer $k$-tuple, and let $\mu(n)\in\{-1,0,1\}$ be the periodic Mobius function. This note shows that discrete Fourier transform analysis produces a simple…

We formulate a parametrized uniformly absolutely globally convergent series of $\zeta$(s) denoted by Z(s, x). When expressed in closed form, it is given by Z(s, x) = (s -- 1)$\zeta$(s) + 1 x Li s z z -- 1 dz, where Li s (x) is the…

We develop a parametric approach to study the Diophantine equation $\frac{k}{n} = \frac{1}{x} + \frac{1}{y} + \frac{1}{z}$, underlying the Erd\H{o}s--Straus ($k=4$), Sierpi\'nski ($k=5$), and related generalizations. We introduce and…

In this paper we attack the Erdos-Straus conjecture by means of the structure of its solutions, extending and improving the results of a previous paper. Using previous results and supported by the works of Elsholtz and Tao and Monks and…

By applying the inverse Mellin transform to some simple closed form identities, a number of relationships are established that connect integrals containing Riemann's and Hurwitz' zeta functions ($\zeta(s)$ and $\zeta(s,a)$) and their…

The monodromy conjecture states that every pole of the topological (or related) zeta function induces an eigenvalue of monodromy. This conjecture has already been studied a lot; however, in full generality it is proven only for zeta…

The present paper is an evolution of the Mengoli's series to the set of rational numbers, which eventually will allow developing the summation, by limits, obtaining the value of zeta(2); problem which Mengoli himself was the first to…

Let $X$ be an arithmetic scheme (i.e., separated, of finite type over $\operatorname{Spec} \mathbb{Z}$) of Krull dimension $1$. For the associated zeta function $\zeta (X,s)$, we write down a formula for the special value at $s = n < 0$ in…

We prove that the special value conjecture for the Zeta function of a proper, regular arithmetic scheme X that we formulated in our previous article [8] is compatible with the functional equation of the Zeta function provided that the…

In a recent paper, Merca posed three conjectures on congruences for specific convolutions of a sum of odd divisor functions with a generating function for generalized $m$-gonal numbers. Extending Merca's work, we complete the proof of these…

We consider the alternating Riemann zeta function $\zeta^*(s)= \sum^{\infty} _{ n=1} \frac{(-1)^{n-1}}{n^s}$, which converges if $Re (s)>0 .$ By using Rouche's theorem, the Bolzano-Weierstrass theorem and by method of contradiction we…
