Finite trigonometric sums appear in various branches of Physics, Mathematics and their applications. For p; q to coprime positive integers and r we consider the finite trigonometric sums involving the product of three trigonometric…

The Euler numbers have been widely studied. A signed version of the Euler numbers of even subscript are given by the coefficients of the exponential generating function 1/(1+x^2/2!+x^4/4!+...). Leeming and MacLeod introduced a…

The polynomial Ramanujan sum was first introduced by Carlitz [7], and a generalized version by Cohen [10]. In this paper, we study the arithmetical and analytic properties of these sums, derive various fundamental identities, such as H…

Nous prouvons l'existence de formules de r\'eciprocit\'e pour des sommes de la forme $\sum_{m=1}^{k-1} f(\frac{m}k) \cot(\pi\frac{mh}k)$, o\`u $f$ est une fonction $C^1$ par morceaux, qui met en \'evidence un ph\'enom\`ene d'alternance qui…

Zeckendorf proved that any integer can be decomposed uniquely as a sum of non-adjacent Fibonacci numbers, $F_n$. Using continued fractions, Lekkerkerker proved the average number of summands of an $m \in [F_n, F_{n+1})$ is essentially…

We study a generalization of the classical Dedekind sum that incorporates two Dirichlet characters and develop properties that generalize those of the classical Dedekind sum. By calculating the Fourier transform of this generalized Dedekind…

We obtain new bounds, pointwisely and on average, for Dedekind sums $\mathsf{s}(\lambda,p)$ modulo a prime $p$ with $\lambda$ of small multiplicative order $d$ modulo $p$. Assuming the infinitude of Mersenne primes, the range of our results…

In [3] it was shown that the Dedekond sums $s(m_1,n)$ and $s(m_2,n)$ are equal only if $(m_1m_2-1)(m_1-m_2)\equiv 0$ mod $n$. Here we show that the latter condition is equivalent to $12s(m_1,n)-12s(m_2,n)\in \Z$. In addition, we determine,…

In this paper, we introduce vast generalizations of the Hardy-Berndt sums. They involve higher-order Euler and/or Bernoulli functions, in which the variables are affected by certain linear shifts. By employing the Fourier series technique…

Let $s(a,b)$ denote the classical Dedekind sum and $S(a,b)=12s(a,b)$. Let $k/q$, $q\in \Bbb N$, $k\in \Bbb Z$, $(k,q)=1$, be the value of $S(a,b)$. In a previous paper we showed that there are pairs $(a_r,b_r)$, $r\in\Bbb N$, such that…

Wolstenholme's type summations involve certain powers of all residues $k$ modulo some prime number $p$. We first consider the sums of double or triple products of certain powers of all residues, e.g., the sums of the terms $(a+k)^m(b+k)^n$…

The Apostol-Dedekind sum with quasi-periodic Euler functions is an analogue of Apostol's definition of the generalized Dedekind sum with periodic Bernoulli functions. In this paper, using the Boole summation formula, we shall obtain the…

Opened up by early contributions due to, among others, H. Bohr, Hardy-Riesz, Bohnenblust-Hille, Neder and Landau the last 20 years show a substantial revival of systematic research on ordinary Dirichlet series $\sum a_n n^{-s}$, and more…

Zeckendorf's theorem states that every positive integer can be uniquely decomposed as a sum of nonconsecutive Fibonacci numbers. The distribution of the number of summands converges to a Gaussian, and the individual measures on gaps between…

Let $S(a,b)$ denote the normalized Dedekind sum. We study the range of possible values for $S(a,b)=\frac{k}{q}$ with $\gcd(k,q)=1$. Girstmair proved local restrictions on $k$ depending on $q\pmod{12}$ and whether $q$ is a square and…

Recently, the author defined multiple Dedekind zeta values [5] associated to a number K field and a cone C. These objects are number theoretic analogues of multiple zeta values. In this paper we prove that every multiple Dedekind zeta value…

Limit laws for ergodic averages with a power singularity over circle rotations were first proved by Sinai and Ulcigrai, as well as Dolgopyat and Fayad. In this paper, we prove limit laws with an estimate for the rate of convergence for the…

An interesting characterization of the Fibonacci numbers is that, if we write them as $F_1 = 1$, $F_2 = 2$, $F_3 = 3$, $F_4 = 5, ...$, then every positive integer can be written uniquely as a sum of non-adjacent Fibonacci numbers. This is…

We evaluate the nested sum $\sum_{a_{n - 1} = c}^{a_n } {\sum_{a_{n - 2} = c}^{a_{n - 1} } { \cdots \sum_{a_0 = c}^{a_1 } {x^{a_0 } } } }$ where $a_n$ and $c$ are any integers and $x$ is a real or complex variable. Consequently, we evaluate…

Zeckendorf's theorem states every positive integer has a unique decomposition as a sum of non-adjacent Fibonacci numbers. This result has been generalized to many sequences $\{a_n\}$ arising from an integer positive linear recurrence, each…
