We revisit a representation for the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$ expressed in terms of normalised incomplete gamma functions given by the author and S. Cang in Methods Appl. Anal. {\bf 4} (1997) 449--470. Use of the uniform asymptotics…

In this paper, Riemann's Zeta function with odd positive integer argument is represented as an infinite summation of integer powers of $\pi$ with rational coefficients. Specific values for Apery's Constant and Catalan's Constant are then…

Let $a\in (0, \infty)$, $\gamma(a)$ be the Generalized Euler-Mascheroni Constant, and let \begin{align*} &x_n=\frac1a+\frac{1}{a+1}+\cdots+\frac{1}{a+n-1}-\ln\frac{a+n}{a},\\…

In the first part we present results of four ``experimental'' determinations of the Euler-Mascheroni constant $\gamma$. Next we give new formulas expressing the $\gamma$ constant in terms of the Ramanujan-Soldner constant $\mu$. Employing…

In previous work it was shown that if certain series based on sums over primes of non-principal Dirichlet characters have a conjectured random walk behavior, then the Euler product formula for its $L$-function is valid to the right of the…

In this paper, we give a purely algebraic proof of an identity coming directly from Euler's reflection formula for the gamma function. Our proof uses Hoffman's harmonic algebra and some binomial identities.

Euler gave recipes for converting alternating series of two types, I and II, into equivalent continued fractions, i.e., ones whose convergents equal the partial sums. A condition we prove for irrationality of a continued fraction then…

We prove a remarkable formula of Ramanujan for the logarithmic derivative of the gamma function, which converges more rapidly than classical expansions, and which is stated without proof in Ramanujan's notebooks. The formula has a number of…

This appendix to the beautiful paper of Ihara puts it in the context of infinite global fields of our papers. We study the behaviour of Euler--Kronecker constant $\gamma\_{K}$ when the discriminant (respectively, the genus) tends to…

Let $\mathcal{P}$ be the set of all primes and $\psi(n)=n\prod_{n\in \mathcal{P},p|n}(1+1/p)$ be the Dedekind psi function. We show that the Riemann hypothesis is satisfied if and only if $f(n)=\psi(n)/n-e^{\gamma} \log \log n <0$ for all…

Let $\Gamma$ be a group and $r_n(\Gamma)$ the number of its $n$-dimensional irreducible complex representations. We define and study the associated representation zeta function $\calz_\Gamma(s) = \suml^\infty_{n=1} r_n(\Gamma)n^{-s}$. When…

Many Dirichlet series of number theoretic interest can be written as a product of generating series $\zeta_{\,d,a}(s)=\prod\limits_{p\equiv a\pmod{d}}(1-p^{-s})^{-1}$, with $p$ ranging over all the primes in the primitive residue class…

We provide a new algorithm for evaluating the gamma function at any (rational) point and a new infinite product representation free from the presence of Euler and Mascheroni constant.Formulae and inequalities seemingly new are obtained as…

We prove a sharp upper bound for the fourth moment of the Hurwitz zeta function $\zeta(s,\alpha)$ on the critical line when the shift parameter $\alpha$ is irrational and of irrationality exponent strictly less than 3. As a consequence, we…

Using the log-convexity of the Gamma function and Euler's reflection formula, we give a new proof of a classical weighted sine product inequality. Two different parameter choices yield two competing upper bounds for the same product. We…

In this article we derive, using the Lagrange inversion theorem and applying twice the Fa\`a di Bruno formula, an expression of the minimum of the Gamma function $\Gamma$ as an expansion in powers of the Euler-Mascheroni constant $\gamma$.…

Suppose that the Riemann hypothesis is false and $\rho_{*} = 1/2 + \eta_{*} + i \gamma_{*}$, $\eta_{*} > 0$, is a nontrivial zero of the Riemann $\zeta$-function off the critical line. Under the negation of the Riemann hypothesis for the…

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…

We provide representations of Euler's constant $\gamma=0.577...$ as series which converge geometrically fast (but use coefficients whose computation induces a quadratic cost). The asymptotic oscillations of these coefficients are discussed.

The Dirichlet lambda function $\lambda(s)$ is defined for $\mathrm{Re}(s) > 1$ by \[ \lambda(s) = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} \frac{1}{(2n+1)^s}. \] This function was initially studied by Euler on the real line, where he denoted it by $N(s)$. In…
