Let $A(t)$ be an elliptic, product-type suspended (which is to say parameter-dependant in a symbolic way) family of pseudodifferential operators on the fibres of a fibration $\phi$ with base $Y.$ The standard example is $A+it$ where $A$ is…

In this note, using an idea from \cite{Amo-Carrillo-Sanchez} we derive some new series representations involving $\zeta(2n)$ and Euler numbers. Using a well-known series representation for the Clausen function, we also provide some new…

Recently, A. I. Aptekarev and his collaborators found a sequence of rational approximations to Euler's constant $\gamma$ defined by a third-order homogeneous linear recurrence. In this paper, we give a new interpretation of Aptekarev's…

We consider a Dirichlet series $\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}a_n^{-s}$, where $a_n$ satisfies a linear recurrence of arbitrary degree with integer coefficients. Under suitable hypotheses, we prove that it has a meromorphic continuation to the complex…

Koecher in 1980 derived a method for obtaining identities for the Riemann zeta function at odd positive integers, including a classical result for $\zeta(3)$ due to Markov and rediscovered by Ap\'ery. In this paper we extend Koecher's…

In 1982, Gessel showed that the Ap\'ery numbers associated to the irrationality of $\zeta(3)$ satisfy Lucas congruences. Our main result is to prove corresponding congruences for all sporadic Ap\'ery-like sequences. In several cases, we are…

We consider the series $\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} z^{n} (a_{n} + x)^{-s}$ where $a_{n}$ satisfies a linear recurrence of arbitrary degree with integer coefficients. Under appropriate conditions, we prove that it can be continued to a meromorphic…

Following Apery's proof of the irrationality of zeta(3), Beukers found an elegant reinterpretation of Apery's arguments using modular forms. We show how Beukers arguments can be adapted to a p-adic setting. In this context, certain…

We derive integral representations for six families of multiple Ap\'ery-like series using repeated integration by parts and Fourier expansions. The resulting formulas are expressed in terms of polylogarithms, Legendre chi functions, and…

In a recent paper Kachi and Tzermias give elementary proofs of four product formulas involving zeta(3), pi, and Catalan's constant. They indicate that they were not able to deduce these products directly from the values of a function…

By modifying Beukers' proof of Apery's theorem that zeta(3) is irrational, we derive criteria for irrationality of Euler's constant, gamma. For n > 0, we define a double integral I(n) and a positive integer S(n), and prove that if d(n) =…
