As a natural generalization of the Euler-Mascheroni constant $\gamma$, Y. Ihara introduced the Euler-Kronecker constant $\gamma_K$ attached to any number field $K$. In this paper, we prove that a certain bound on $\gamma_K$ in a tower of…

For a number field $K$, the Euler-Kronecker constant $\gamma_K$ associated to $K$ is an arithmetic invariant the size and nature of which is linked to some of the deepest questions in number theory. This theme was given impetus by Ihara who…

The Euler--Kronecker constant of a number field $K$ is the ratio of the constant and the residue of the Laurent series of the Dedekind zeta function $\zeta_K(s)$ at $s=1$. We study the distribution of the Euler--Kronecker constant…

The Euler-Mascheroni constant $\gamma=0.5772\dots\!$ is the $K=\mathbb{Q}$ example of an Euler-Kronecker constant $\gamma_K$ of a number field $K.$ In this note we consider the size of the $\gamma_q=\gamma_{K_q}$ for cyclotomic fields…

In 2006, Ihara defined and systematically studied a generalization of the Euler-Mascheroni constant for all global fields, named the Euler-Kronecker constants. This paper examines their distribution across geometric quadratic extensions of…

The main goal of this paper is to prove a formula that expresses the limit behaviour of Dedekind zeta functions for $\Re s > 1/2$ in families of number fields, assuming that the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis holds. This result can be…

Kummer (1851) and, many years later, Ihara (2005) both posed conjectures on invariants related to the cyclotomic field $\mathbb Q(\zeta_q)$ with $q$ a prime. Kummer's conjecture concerns the asymptotic behaviour of the first factor of the…

Kummer's conjecture predicts the asymptotic growth of the relative class number of prime cyclotomic fields. We substantially improve the known bounds of Kummer's ratio under three scenarios: no Siegel zero, presence of Siegel zero and…

We introduce some generalizations of the Euler-Kronecker constant of a number field and study their arithmetic nature.

The higher Euler-Kronecker constants of a number field $K$ are the coefficients in the Laurent series expansion of the logarithmic derivative of the Dedekind zeta function about $s=1$. These coefficients are mysterious and seem to contain a…

The paper has two purposes. First, we start to develop a theory of infinite global fields, i.e., of infinite algebraic extensions either of ${\mathbb{Q}}$ or of ${\mathbb{F}}_r(t)$. We produce a series of invariants of such fields, and we…

Possible transcendental nature of Euler's constant $\gamma$ has been the focus of study for sometime now. One possible approach is to consider $\gamma$ not in isolation, but as an element of the infinite family of generalised Euler-Briggs…

This paper has two parts. The first part surveys Euler's work on the constant gamma=0.57721... bearing his name, together with some of his related work on the gamma function, values of the zeta function and divergent series. The second part…

We apply the Euler--Maclaurin formula to find the asymptotic expansion of the sums $\sum_{k=1}^n (\log k)^p / k^q$, ~$\sum k^q (\log k)^p$, ~$\sum (\log k)^p /(n-k)^q$, ~$\sum 1/k^q (\log k)^p $ in closed form to arbitrary order ($p,q…

We study a problem of finding good approximations to Euler's constant $\gamma=\lim_{n\to\infty}S_n,$ where $S_n=\sum_{k=1}^n\frac{1}{n}-\log(n+1),$ by linear forms in logarithms and harmonic numbers. In 1995, C. Elsner showed that slow…

In 1977, Lenstra provided a criterion for norm-Euclideanity of number fields and noted that this criterion becomes ineffective for number fields of large enough degrees under the Generalised Riemann Hypothesis (GRH) for the Dedekind…

We study the asymptotic behavior, as $\gamma$ tends to infinity, of solutions for the homogeneous Dirichlet problem associated to singular semilinear elliptic equations whose model is $$ -\Delta u=\frac{f(x)}{u^\gamma}\,\text{ in }\Omega,…

We study quantum field theories in which the number of degrees of freedom changes discontinuously across the momentum space. This discontinuity which we call "Kronecker anomaly" leads to non-local effective actions and can be represented as…

In this paper we analyze the asymptotic behavior of the Dirichlet fractional Laplacian $(-\Delta_{\mathbb R^{n+k}})^{s}$, with $s\in (0, 1)$, on bounded domains in $\mathbb R^{n+k}$ that become unbounded in the last $k$-directions. A…

For a fixed odd prime q we investigate the first and second order terms of the asymptotic series expansion for the number of n\le x such that q does not divide phi(n). Part of the analysis involves a careful study of the Euler-Kronecker…
