The reduction modulo $p$ of a family of lacunary integer polynomials, associated with the dynamical zeta function $\zeta_{\beta}(z)$ of the $\beta$-shift, for $\beta > 1$ close to one, is investigated. We briefly recall how this family is…
Moduli spaces of stable coherent sheaves on a surface are of much interest for both mathematics and physics. Yoshioka computed generating functions of Poincare polynomials of such moduli spaces if the surface is the projective plane P2 and…
Recently, Kaneko and Tsumura introduced multiple $\widetilde{T}$-values, another kind of poly-Euler numbers and the related Arakawa-Kaneko type zeta function. It is shown that each of them satisfies similar formulas to those of multiple…
In 2017, Ono, Rolen, and Sprung [ORS17] answered problems of Manin [Man16] by defining zeta-polynomials $Z_f(s)$ for even weight newforms $f\in S_k(\Gamma_0(N)$; these polynomials can be defined by applying the "Rodriguez-Villegas…
We present computational data and heuristic arguments which suggest that given a hyperbolic knot the volume correlates with its determinant, the Mahler measure of its Alexander polynomial and the Mahler measure of the twisted Alexander…
We improve Mahler's lower bound for the Mahler measure in terms of the discriminant and degree for a specific class of polynomials: complex monic polynomials of degree $d\geq 2$ such that all roots with modulus greater than some fixed value…
We give a new and very concise proof of the existence of a holomorphic continuation for a large class of twisted multivariable zeta functions. To do this, we use a simple method of "decalage" that avoids using an integral representation of…
The values at positive integers of the polyzeta functions are solutions of the polynomial equations arising from Drinfeld's associators, which have numerous applications in quantum algebra. Considered as iterated integrals they become…
Two decades ago P. Martin and D. Woodcock made a surprising and prophetic link between statistical mechanics and representation theory. They observed that the decomposition numbers of the blob algebra (that appeared in the context of…
This paper has two primary contributions. First, we explore degenerate Sheffer-type polynomials, a hybrid of higher-order degenerate Bernoulli and Euler polynomials, and derive their properties. Second, assuming that the moment generating…
Given a double vector bundle $D\to M$, we define a bigraded `Weil algebra' $\mathcal{W}(D)$, which `realizes' the algebra of smooth functions on the supermanifold $D[1,1]$. We describe in detail the relations between the Weil algebras of…
In this paper we study the higher-order Euler numbers and polynomials and we introduce the mutiple zeta functions which interpolate higher-order Euler polynomials and numbers at negative integers
An invertible polynomial in $n$ variables is a quasihomogeneous polynomial consisting of $n$ monomials so that the weights of the variables and the quasi-degree are well defined. In the framework of the construction of mirror symmetric…
Multiple zeta values arise as special values of polylogarithms defined on Riemann surfaces of various genera. Building on the vast knowledge for classical and elliptic multiple zeta values, we explore a canonical extension of the formalism…
We work with detail the Drinfeld module over the ring $$A=F_2[x,y]/(y^2+y=x^3+x+1).$$ The example in question is one of the four examples that come from quadratic imaginary fields with class number $h = 1$ and rank one. We develop specific…
We describe a solution of the Gauss hypergeometric equation, $F(\alpha,\beta,\gamma;z)$ by power series in paramaters $\alpha,\beta,\gamma$ whose coefficients are $\Z$ linear combinations of multiple polylogarithms. And using the…
Following Zagier, this work studies the rationality and divisibility of Fourier coefficients of meromorphic Hilbert modular forms associated with real quadratic fields, using theta lifts and weak Maass forms. We establish conditions where…
The classical Schl\"afli formula, and its ``higher'' analogs given in [SS03], are relations between the variations of the volumes and ``curvatures'' of faces of different dimensions of a polyhedra (which can be Euclidean, spherical or…
We construct and study a certain zeta function which interpolates multi-poly-Bernoulli numbers at non-positive integers and whose values at positive integers are linear combinations of multiple zeta values. This function can be regarded as…
This paper deals with a new analytic type of vector- and Clifford algebra valued automorphic forms in one and two vector variables. For hypercomplex generalizations of the classical modular group and their arithmetic congruence subgroups…
