In this paper we study the behavior of some harmonic analysis operators associated with the discrete Laplacian $\Delta_d$ in discrete Hardy spaces $\mathcal H^p(\mathbb Z)$. We prove that the maximal operator and the Littlewood-Paley $g$…

We represent the Riemann zeta function in the half-plane $\Re s >1$ via series whose terms admit geometrically decreasing bounds. Due to an underlying recurrence relation, which is used to compute coefficients entering into the terms, the…

In this paper, we obtain asymptotic formulae on nilmanifolds $\Gamma \backslash G$, wher $G$ is any stratified (or even graded) nilpotent Lie group equipped with a co-compact discrete subgroup $\Gamma$. We study especially the asymptotics…
We show that the Ruelle dynamical zeta function on a closed odd dimensional locally symmetric space twisted by an arbitrary flat vector bundle has a meromorphic extension to the whole complex plane and that its leading term in the Laurent…
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…
In this work we extend the theory of the classical Hardy space $H^1$ to the rational Dunkl setting. Specifically, let $\Delta$ be the Dunkl Laplacian on a Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^N$. On the half-space $\mathbb{R}_+\times\mathbb{R}^N$,…
For hyperbolic Riemann surfaces of finite geometry, we study Selberg's zeta function and its relation to the relative scattering phase and the resonances of the Laplacian. As an application we show that the conjugacy class of a finitely…

We use zeta function techniques to give a finite definition for the Casimir energy of an arbitrary ultrastatic spacetime with or without boundaries. We find that the Casimir energy is intimately related to, but not identical to, the…
We study the connection between $\zeta $- and cutoff-regularized Casimir energies for scalar fields. We show that, in general, both regularization schemes lead to divergent contributions, and to finite parts which do not coincide. We…
