Many authors have investigated the congruence relations amongst the coefficients of power series expansions of modular forms $f$ in modular functions $t$. In a recent paper, R. Osburn and B. Sahu examine several power series expansions and…

In this shortnote, a series expansion technique introduced recently by Dancs and He for generating Euler-type formulae for odd zeta values $\:\zeta{(2 k +1)}$, $\zeta{(s)}$ being the Riemann zeta function and $k$ a positive integer, is…

Ap\'{e}ry-type (inverse) binomial series have appeared prominently in the calculations of Feynman integrals in recent years. In our previous work, we showed that a few large classes of the non-alternating Ap\'ery-type (inverse) central…

Let $\zeta_2(\cdot)$ be the Kubota-Leopoldt $2$-adic zeta function. We prove that, for every nonnegative integer $s$, there exists an odd integer $j$ in the interval $[s+3,3s+5]$ such that $\zeta_2(j)$ is irrational. In particular, at least…

The present paper is an evolution of the Mengoli's series to the set of rational numbers, which eventually will allow developing the summation, by limits, obtaining the value of zeta(2); problem which Mengoli himself was the first to…

We discuss some aspects of the search for identities using computer algebra and symbolic methods. The focus is on so-called Apery-like formulae for special values of the Riemann Zeta function. Much work lays ahead in formally proving and…

This note describes continued fraction representations for the rational approximations to the zeta function recently found by the author. It is tempting to think that these continued fractions might be analysed using a souped up version of…

Based on the framework of the WZ theory, a new evaluation for $\varsigma (2) = \frac{\pi ^2}{6}$ and $\varsigma (4) = \frac{\pi ^4}{90}$ was given respectively, finally, a new recurrence formula for $\varsigma (2k)$ was given.

We study a family of mixed Tate motives over $\mathbb{Z}$ whose periods are linear forms in the zeta values $\zeta(n)$. They naturally include the Beukers-Rhin-Viola integrals for $\zeta(2)$ and the Ball-Rivoal linear forms in odd zeta…

This article provides a proof of the famous \textit{Prime Number Theorem} by establishing an analogous statement of the same in terms of the second \textit{Chebyshev Function} $\psi(x)$. We shall be extensively using complex analytic…

A full Lie analysis of a system of third-order difference equations is performed. Explicit solutions, expressed in terms of the initial values, are derived. Furthermore, we give sufficient conditions for existence of 2-periodic and…

For any prime $p$ and $\varepsilon>0$ we prove that for any sufficiently large positive odd integer $s$ at least $(c_p-\varepsilon) \sqrt{\frac{s}{\log s}}$ of the $p$-adic zeta values $\zeta_p(3),\zeta_p(5),\dots,\zeta_p(s)$ are…

We present a new structure called the "conservative matrix field", initially developed to elucidate and provide insight into the methodologies employed by Ap\'ery's in his proof of the irrationality of the Riemann zeta function at 3. This…

This article describes a sequence of rational functions which converges locally uniformly to the zeta function. The numerators (and denominators) of these rational functions can be expressed as characteristic polynomials of matrices that…

For odd $N\geq 5$, we establish a short exact sequence about motivic double zeta values $\zeta^{\mathfrak{m}}(r,N-r)$ with $r\geq3$ odd, $N-r\geq2$. From this we classify all the relations among depth-graded motivic double zeta values…

In this paper, we introduce and study new classes of Ap\'ery-type series involving the multiple $t$-harmonic sums by combining the methods of iterated integral and Fourier--Legendre series expansions, where the multiple $t$-harmonic sums…

In this paper we generalize Nesterenko's criterion to the case where the small linear forms have an oscillating behaviour (for instance given by the saddle point method). This criterion provides both a lower bound for the dimension of the…

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…

In this paper we introduce and study double tails of multiple zeta values. We show, in particular, that they satisfy certain recurrence relations and deduce from this a generalization of Euler's classical formula…

The aim of this work is an analytic investigation of differential equations producing mirror maps as well as giving new examples of mirror maps; one of these examples is related to (rational approximations to) $\zeta(4)$. We also indicate…
