We develop a theory of ordered *-vector spaces with an order unit. We prove fundamental results concerning positive linear functionals and states, and we show that the order (semi)norm on the space of self-adjoint elements admits multiple…

This paper introduces and develops M\"obius homology, a homology theory for representations of finite posets into abelian categories. Although the connection between poset topology and M\"obius functions is classical, we go further by…

We study relationships between spinor representations of certain Lie algebras and Lie superalgebras of differential operators on the circle and values of $\zeta$--functions at the negative integers. By using formal calculus techniques we…

Let $\zeta(.)$ denote the Riemann zeta function and let $a(.)$ and $A(.)$ respectively denote a multiplicative function and its corresponding summatory function. We consider the correlation $$ \langle a(n)A(n-1) \rangle (T) =…

We investigate a modified M\"obius $\mu$-function which is related to an infinite product of shifted Riemann zeta-functions. We prove conditional and unconditional upper and lower bounds for its summatory function, and, finally, we discuss…

We prove that the sequential functionals of some fixed types at type level 2, taking finite sequences of unary functions as arguments, do form a directed complete partial ordering. This gives a full characterisation of for which types the…

We introduce a new notion of $\boxast$-product of two integrable series with coefficients in distinct Grothendieck rings of algebraic varieties, preserving the integrability and commuting with the limit of rational series. In the same…

We study a family of mixed Tate motives over $\mathbb{Z}$ whose periods are linear forms in the zeta values $\zeta(n)$. They naturally include the Beukers-Rhin-Viola integrals for $\zeta(2)$ and the Ball-Rivoal linear forms in odd zeta…

Let $T$ be an underlying space with a non-atomic measure $\sigma$ on it. In [{\it Comm.\ Math.\ Phys.}\ {\bf 292} (2009), 99--129] the Meixner class of non-commutative generalized stochastic processes with freely independent values,…

The paper considers the Cauchy problem for the system of partial differential equations of fractional order $D_t^{\mathcal{B}} {U}(t,x) + \mathbb{A}(D) {U} (t,x)=H(t,x) $. Here $U$ and $H$ are vector-functions, the $m\times m$ matrix of…

We show that, for the M\"obius function $\mu(n)$, we have $$ \sum_{x < n\leq x+x^{\theta}}\mu(n)=o(x^{\theta}) $$ for any $\theta>0.55$. This improves on a result of Ramachandra from 1976, which is valid for $\theta>7/12$. Ramachandra's…

The M\"obius function for a group, $G$, was introduced in 1936 by Hall in order to count ordered generating sets of $G$. In this paper we determine the M\"obius function of the simple small Ree groups, $R(q)={}^2G_2(q)$ where $q=3^{2m+1}$…

In the present article, composition operators induced by Rational Inner Functions on the bidisc $\mathbb{D}^2$ are studied, acting on the weighted Bergman space $A^2_{\beta}(\mathbb{D}^2).$ We prove that under mild conditions that Rational…

We introduce vincular pattern posets, then we consider in particular the quasi-consecutive pattern poset, which is defined by declaring $\sigma \leq \tau$ whenever the permutation $\tau$ contains an occurrence of the permutation $\sigma$ in…

In this article we define and study a zeta function $\zeta_G$ - similar to the Hasse-Weil zeta function - which enumerates absolutely irreducible representations over finite fields of a (profinite) group $G$. The zeta function converges on…

We generalize the character formulas for multiplicities of irreducible constituents from group theory to semigroup theory using Rota's theory of M\"obius inversion. The technique works for a large class of semigroups including: inverse…

Mathematica offers, by way of the package Combinatorics, many useful functions to work on graphs and ordered structures, but none of these functions was specific enough to meet the needs of our research group. Moreover, the existing…

In these notes we study several categorical generalizations of the M\"obius function and discuss the relations between the various approaches. We emphasize the topological and geometric meaning of these constructions.
