Two transforms of functions on a half-line are considered. It is proved that their composition gives a concave majorant for every nonnegative function. In particular, this composition is the identity transform on the class of nonnegative…

In this article we obtain, using an expression of the digamma function $\psi(x)$ due to Mikolas, integral representations of the zeta function of odd arguments $\zeta(2p+1)$ for any positive value of $p$. The integrand consists of the…

The asymptotic expansion of digamma function is a starting point for the derivation of approximants for harmonic sums or Euler-Mascheroni constant. It is usual to derive such approximations as values of logarithmic function, which leads to…

We consider binomial and inverse binomial sums at infinity and rewrite them in terms of a small set of constants, such as powers of $\pi$ or $\log(2)$. In order to perform these simplifications, we view the series as specializations of…

We construct a single explicit entire function $\Xi_c(s)$ of order 1, with all zeros provably on $Re(s) = 1/2$, satisfying a functional equation $\Xi_c(s) = \Xi_c(1-s)$, whose normalized form $Z_c(s) =…

We prove polynomial identities for the N=1 superconformal model SM(2,4\nu) which generalize and extend the known Fermi/Bose character identities. Our proof uses the q-trinomial coefficients of Andrews and Baxter on the bosonic side and a…

This paper examines dimension of the graph of the famous Weierstrass non-differentiable function \[ W_{\lambda, b} (x) = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\lambda^n\cos(2\pi b^n x) \] for an integer $b \ge 2$ and $1/b < \lambda < 1$. We prove that for…

The pseudo-Gamma function is a key tool introduced recently by Cheng and Albeverio in the proof of \break the density hypothesis. This function is doubly symmetric, which means that it is reflectively symmetric about the real axis by the…

It is proved that $$\left(\frac{x^n}{1-e^{-x}}\right)^{(n)}>0$$ for all $x\in (\log 2, \infty)$ and $n\in \mathbb{N}$, which improves the result of [Al-Musallam and Bustoz in Ramanujan J. 11 (2006) 399-402].

This work derives an application from the identities of arXiv:hep-th/0602028 in order to invert four point functions in defect conformal field theories. For this, a recursion relation is established and the O(N) model with a line defect is…

For a finite sequence of positive integers $A=\{a_j\}_{j=1}^{k},$ we prove a recursion for divisor function $\sigma_{x}^{(A)}(n)=\sum_{d|n,\enskip d\in A}d^x.$ As a corollary, we give an affirmative solution of the problem posed in 1969 by…

In this paper we generalize an identity first given by Heinrich Eduard Heine in his treatise, {\it Handbuch der Kugelfunctionen, Theorie und Anwendungen (1881), which gives a Fourier series for $1/[z-\cos\psi]^{1/2}$, for $z,\psi\in\R$, and…

Let $\Gamma$ be an oriented Jordan smooth curve and $\alpha$ be a diffeomorphism of $\Gamma$ onto itself which has an arbitrary nonempty set of periodic points. We prove criteria for one-sided invertiblity of the binomial functional…

The goal of this paper is to prove the identity \begin{align}\sum \limits_{j=0}^{\lfloor s\rfloor}\frac{(-1)^j}{s^j}\eta_s(j)+\frac{1}{e^{s-1}s^s}\sum \limits_{j=0}^{\lfloor s\rfloor}(-1)^{j+1}\alpha_s(j)+\bigg(\frac{1-((-1)^{s-\lfloor…

In this paper, an integral identity for twice differentiable functions is generalized. Then, by using convexity of |f''| or q-th power of |f''| and with the aid of power mean and Holder's inequalities we achieved some new results. We also…
