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…

We present two approaches for computing rational approximations to multivariate functions, motivated by their effectiveness as surrogate models for high-energy physics (HEP) applications. Our first approach builds on the Stieltjes process…

To evaluate Riemann's zeta function is important for many investigations related to the area of number theory, and to have quickly converging series at hand in particular. We investigate a class of summation formulae and find, as a special…

Linear recursions with integer coefficients, such as the one generating the Fibonacci sequence, have been intensely studied over millennia and yet still hide new mathematics. Such a recursion was used by Ap\'ery in his proof of the…

For a hypergeometric series $\sum_k f(k,a, b, ...,c)$ with parameters $a, b, >...,c$, Paule has found a variation of Zeilberger's algorithm to establish recurrence relations involving shifts on the parameters. We consider a more general…

In this paper, we explore several threads arising from our recent joint work on arithmetic holonomy bounds, which were originally devised to prove new irrationality results based on the method of Ap\'ery limits. We propose a new method to…

The central idea of this article is to present a systematic approach to construct some recurrence relations for the solutions of the second-order linear difference equation of hypergeometric-type defined on the quadratic-type lattices. We…

We show that Mahler's classification of real numbers $\zeta$ with respect to the growth of the sequence $(w_{n}(\zeta))_{n\geq 1}$ is equivalently induced by certain natural assumptions on the decay of the sequence…

Building on work of Davenport and Schmidt, we mainly prove two results. The first one is a version of Gel'fond's transcendence criterion which provides a sufficient condition for a complex or $p$-adic number $\xi$ to be algebraic in terms…

We have gone back to old methods found in the historical part of Hardy's Divergent Series well before the invention of the modern analytic continuation to use formal manipulation of harmonic sums which produce some interesting formulae.…

To obtain the Dirichlet series for complex powers of the Riemann zeta function, we define and study the basic properties of a sequence of polynomials that, used as coefficients of the respective terms of the Dirichlet series of the Riemann…

The manuscript reviews Dirichlet Series of important multiplicative arithmetic functions. The aim is to represent these as products and ratios of Riemann zeta-functions, or, if that concise format is not found, to provide the leading…
