We present Euler-type recurrence relations for some partition functions. Some of our results provide new recurrences for the number of unrestricted partitions of $n$, denote by $p(n)$. Others establish recurrences for partition functions…

The transformations of the sum identities for generalized harmonic and oscillatory numbers, obtained earlier in our recent report [1], enable us to derive the new identities expressed in terms of the corresponding square roots of x. At…

We propose a relation between values of the Riemann zeta function $\zeta$ and a family of integrals. This results in an integral representation for $\zeta(2p)$, where $p$ is a positive integer, and an expression of $\zeta(2p+1)$ involving…

In this paper, we use two different approaches to introduce $q$-analogs of Riemann's zeta function and prove that their values at even integers are related to the $q$-Bernoulli and $q$ Euler's numbers introduced by Ismail and Mansour…

Euler discovered recurrence for divisor sum functions as a consequence of the pentagonal numbers theorem. With similar idea and also motivated by Ewell's work in 1977, we prove new recurrences for certain divisor sum functions and…

In this note, we provide refined estimates of the following sums involving the Euler totient function: $$\sum_{n\le x} \phi\left(\left[\frac{x}{n}\right]\right) \qquad \text{and} \qquad \sum_{n\le x} \frac{\phi([x/n])}{[x/n]}$$ where $[x]$…

Let $ x\geq 1 $ be a large number, let $ [x]=x-\{x\} $ be the largest integer function, and let $ \varphi(n)$ be the Euler totient function. The result $ \sum_{n\leq x}\varphi([x/n])=(6/\pi^2)x\log x+O\left ( x(\log x)^{2/3}(\log\log…

An extension of the theory of the Iterated Logarithmic Algebra gives the logarithmic analog of a Sheffer or Appell sequence of polynomials. This leads to several examples including Stirling's formula and a logarithmic version of the…

In this paper, we investigate the parity of three class of Hurwitz-type cyclotomic Euler sums using the methods of contour integration and residue computation, and derive explicit parity formulas for linear, quadratic, and some higher-order…

We obtain recurrences for smallest parts functions which resemble Euler's recurrence for the ordinary partition function. The proofs involve the holomorphic projection of non-holomorphic modular forms of weight 2.

An arbitrary-depth reduction theorem for the `convolution' multiple L-values of Euler-Zagier type is proven by an analytic method. To this end, generalized polylogarithms associated to Dirichlet characters are defined. The proof uses the…

In this paper we give the q-extension of Euler numbers which can be viewed as interpolating of the q-analogue of Euler zeta function ay negative integers, in the same way that Riemann zeta function interpolates Bernoulli numbers at negative…

We study logarithmic integrals of the form $\int_0^1 x^i\ln^n(x)\ln^m(1-x)dx$. They are expressed as a rational linear combination of certain rational numbers $(n,m)_i$, which we call tiered binomial coefficients, and products of the zeta…

Closed form expressions are proposed for the Feynman integral $$ I_{D, m}(p,q) = \int\frac{d^my}{(2\pi)^m}\int\frac{d^Dx}{(2\pi)^D} \frac1{(x-p/2)^2+(y-q/2)^4} \frac1{(x+p/2)^2+(y+q/2)^4} $$ over $d=D+m$ dimensional space with…

Multiple elliptic polylogarithms can be written as (multiple) integrals of products of basic hypergeometric functions. The latter are computable, to arbitrary precision, using a q-difference equation and q-contiguous relations.

We associate some (old) convergent series related to definite integrals with the cyclotomic equation $x^m-1= 0$, for several natural numbers $m$; for example, for $m = 3$, $x^3-1 = (x-1)(1+x+x^2)$, leads to $\int_0^1dx\frac{1}{(1+x+x^2)} =…
