We provide rapidly converging formulae for the Riemann zeta function at odd integers using the Lambert series $\mathscr{L}_q(s) = \sum_{n=1}^\infty n^{s} q^{n}/(1-q^n)$, $s=-(4k\pm 1)$. Our main formula for $\zeta(4k-1)$ converges at rate…

We give a new proof of the identity $\zeta(\{2,1\}^l)=\zeta(\{3\}^l)$ of the multiple zeta values, where $l=1,2,\dots$, using generating functions of the underlying generalized polylogarithms. In the course of study we arrive at…

We consider a Dirichlet series $\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}a_n^{-s}$, where $a_n$ satisfies a linear recurrence of arbitrary degree with integer coefficients. Under suitable hypotheses, we prove that it has a meromorphic continuation to the complex…

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…

We prove exact formulas for weighted $2k$th moments of the Riemann zeta function for all integer $k\geq 1$ in terms of the analytic continuation of an auto-correlation function. This latter enjoys several functional equations. One of them,…

Plouffe conjectured rapidly converging series formulas for $\pi^{2n+1}$ and $\zeta (2n+1)$ for small values of $n$. We find the general pattern for all nonnegative integer values of $n$ and offer a proof.

We evaluate in closed form three special classes of alternating zeta series with one and two additional parameters. Two classes are expressed as linear combinations of polylogarithms while for the third class we prove an expression…

We investigate the values of the Riemann zeta function at odd integers and the Dirichlet beta function at even integers, by collecting several distinct analytic frameworks converging to these values, thus providing a unifying perspective.…

Roger Apery's seminal method for proving irrationality is "turned on its head" and taught to computers, enabling a one second redux of the original proof of zeta(3), and many new irrationality proofs of many new constants, alas, none of…

We provide an introduction of some basic facts of uniformly almost periodic functions, such as Fourier series representations. A result is then proved about Fourier coefficients which is a generalization of the purely periodic case. We then…

The alternating zeta function zeta*(s) = 1 - 2^{-s} + 3^{-s} - ... is related to the Riemann zeta function by the identity (1-2^{1-s})zeta(s) = zeta*(s). We deduce the vanishing of zeta*(s) at each nonreal zero of the factor 1-2^{1-s}…

Sums over inverse s-th powers of semiprimes and k-almost primes are transformed into sums over products of powers of ordinary prime zeta functions. Multinomial coefficients known from the cycle decomposition of permutation groups play the…

In this note, we propose an integral representation for $\zeta(4)$, where $\zeta$ is the Riemann zeta function. The corresponding expression is obtained using relations for polylogarithms. A possible generalization to any even argument of…

We establish a connection between a function and a series representation using a similar technique with that that Euler used to solve the Basel problem. Our result concerns a more general series from which one can obtain $\zeta(2k)$ as a…

We introduce and study "elliptic zeta values", a two-parameter deformation of the values of Riemann's zeta function at positive integers. They are essentially Taylor coefficients of the logarithm of the elliptic gamma function, and share…

We present a new structure called the "conservative matrix field", initially developed to elucidate and provide insight into the methodologies employed by Ap\'ery's in his proof of the irrationality of the Riemann zeta function at 3. This…

We identify a partition-theoretic generalization of Riemann zeta function and the equally positive integer-indexed harmonic sums at infinity, to obtain the generating function and the integral representations of the latter. The special…

We use the conjecture of Conrey, Farmer and Zirnbauer for averages of ratios of the Riemann zeta function to calculate all the lower order terms of the triple correlation function of the Riemann zeros. A previous approach was suggested in…

Relying on the Hurwitz formula, we find sums of the series over sine and cosine functions through the Hurwitz zeta function. Using another summation formula for these trigonometric series, we find finite sums of some series over the Riemann…

We prove certain general forms of functional relations among Witten multiple zeta-functions in several variables (or zeta-functions of root systems). The structural background of those functional relations is given by the symmetry with…
