The renormalization of MZV was until now carried out by algebraic means. We show that renormalization in general, of the multiple zeta functions in particular, is more than mere convention. We show that simple calculus methods allow us to…
The Stieltjes constants $\gamma_k(a)$ appear as the coefficients in the regular part of the Laurent expansion of the Hurwitz zeta function $\zeta(s,a)$ about $s=1$. We present the evaluation of $\gamma_1(a)$ and $\gamma_2(a)$ at rational…
The electron repulsion integrals over the Slater-type orbitals with non-integer principal quantum numbers are considered. These integrals are useful in both non-relativistic and relativistic calculations of many-electron systems. They…
Hypergeometric class equations are given by second order differential operators in one variable whose coefficient at the second derivative is a polynomial of degree $\leq2$, at the first derivative of degree $\leq1$ and the free term is a…
We use the universal generation of algebraic cycles to relate (stable) rationality to the integral Hodge conjecture. We show that the Chow group of 1-cycles on a cubic hypersurface is universally generated by lines. Applications are mainly…
We present expressions in terms of a double infinite series for the Stieltjes constants $\gamma_k(a)$. These constants appear in the regular part of the Laurent expansion for the Hurwitz zeta function. We show that the case…
In this paper, we establish improved effective irrationality measures for certain numbers of the form $\sqrt[3]{n}$, using approximations obtained from hypergeometric functions. These results are very close to the best possible using this…
The theories of hypergeometric functions and modular forms are highly intertwined. For example, particular values of truncated hypergeometric functions and hypergeometric character sums are often congruent or equal to Fourier coefficients…
By using various expansions of the parametric digamma function and the method of residue computations, we study three variants of the linear Euler sums, related Hoffman's double $t$-values and Kaneko-Tsumura's double $T$-values, and…
In this paper, we prove two structural theorems on the general Berndt-type integrals with the denominator having arbitrary positive degrees by contour integrations involving hyperbolic and trigonometric functions, and hyperbolic sums…
The "Universality Theorem" for gravity shows that f(R) theories (in their metric-affine formulation) in vacuum are dynamically equivalent to vacuum Einstein equations with suitable cosmological constants. This holds true for a generic (i.e.…
In this paper, we introduce a new function, the multiple confluent hypergeometric functions, and establish a functional equation for the $r$-variable Euler--Zagier multiple zeta functions using it. In the case when $r=2$, this functional…
We recall that diagonals of rational functions naturally occur in lattice statistical mechanics and enumerative combinatorics. We find that a seven-parameter rational function of three variables with a numerator equal to one (reciprocal of…
Motivated by our previous work on hypergeometric functions and the parbelos constant, we perform a deeper investigation on the interplay among generalized complete elliptic integrals, Fourier-Legendre (FL) series expansions, and ${}_p F_q$…
We consider some new limits for the elliptic hypergeometric integrals on root systems. After the degeneration of elliptic beta integrals of type I and type II for root systems $A_n$ and $C_n$ to the hyperbolic hypergeometric integrals, we…
The problem we consider is to define families of n-dimensional integrals, endowed with group actions as in Rhin-Viola's work on irrationality measures of $\zeta(2)$ and $\zeta(3)$, the values of which are linear forms, over the rationals,…
In math.CA/0211148 we observed that $\ln(4/ \pi)$ is an "alternating" analog of Euler's constant $\gamma$. Here we use the binary expansion of an integer to give a rational series for $\ln(4/ \pi)$ analogous to Vacca's series for $\gamma$.…
A general hypergeometric construction of linear forms in (odd) zeta values is presented. The construction allows to recover the records of Rhin and Viola for the irrationality measures of $\zeta(2)$ and $\zeta(3)$, as well as to explain…
The beta integral is applied to accelerate the hypergeometric function $2 F 1\left\{1, B; C ; w\right\}$ to derive new infinite series for constants such as $\pi$ and values of the gamma function. A compendium of new infinite series is…
We provide a complete classification of the algebraicity of (generalized) hypergeometric functions with no restriction on the set of their parameters. Our characterization relies on the interlacing criteria of Christol (1987) and…
