An incomplete Riemann zeta function can be expressed as a lower-bounded, improper Riemann-Liouville fractional integral, which, when evaluated at $0$, is equivalent to the complete Riemann zeta function. Solutions to Landau's problem with…

We introduce a natural definition for sums of the form \[ \sum_{\nu=1}^x f(\nu) \] when the number of terms x is a rather arbitrary real or even complex number. The resulting theory includes the known interpolation of the factorial by the…
In [18], fundamental solutions for the generalized bi-axially symmetric Helmholtz equation were constructed in $R_2^ + = \left\{ {\left( {x,y} \right):x > 0,y > 0} \right\}.$ They contain Kummer's confluent hypergeometric functions in three…

The class of Dirichlet series associated with a periodic arithmetical function $f$ includes the Riemann zeta-function as well as Dirichlet $L$-functions to residue class characters. We study the value-distribution of these Dirichlet series…
We connect a primitive operation from arithmetic -- summing the digits of a base-$B$ integer -- to $q$-series and product generating functions analogous to those in partition theory. We find digit sum generating functions to be intertwined…
In this Ph.D. dissertation (2018, Emory University) we prove theorems at the intersection of the additive and multiplicative branches of number theory, bringing together ideas from partition theory, $q$-series, algebra, modular forms and…
Carlitz and Scoville introduced the polynomials $A_n(x,y|{\alpha},{\beta})$, which we refer to as the $(\alpha, \beta)$-Eulerian polynomials. These polynomials count permutations based on Eulerian-Stirling statistics, including descents,…
In the first part, we consider generalized quadratic Gauss sums as finite analogues of the Jacobi theta function, and the reciprocity law for Gauss sums as their transformation formula. We attach finite Dirichlet series to Gauss sums using…
Linear second order differential equations having a large real parameter and turning point in the complex plane are considered. Classical asymptotic expansions for solutions involve the Airy function and its derivative, along with two…
If \(A \) is a set of natural numbers containing \(0 \), then there is a unique nonempty "reciprocal" set \(B \) of natural numbers (containing \(0 \)) such that every positive integer can be written in the form \(a + b \), where \(a \in A…

Many combinatorial generating functions can be expressed as combinations of symmetric functions, or extracted as sub-series and specializations from such combinations. Gessel has outlined a large class of symmetric functions for which the…
