Maximon has recently given an excellent summary of the properties of the Euler dilogarithm function and the frequently used generalizations of the dilogarithm, the most important among them being the polylogarithm function $Li_(z)$. The…
We construct polylogarithms on families of pointed Riemann surfaces of any genus which describe monodromies of meromorphic connections with simple poles. Furthermore, we show that the polylogaritms are computable as power series in…
The theory of fractional calculus in the complex plane was not built with a specific application in mind. The main obstacle to application was the difficulty with obtaining analytic continuations of fractional derivatives and integrals. It…
Several problems in computer algebra can be efficiently solved by reducing them to calculations over finite fields. In this paper, we describe an algorithm for the reconstruction of multivariate polynomials and rational functions from their…
Windowed recurrences are sliding window calculations where a function is applied iteratively across the window of data, and are ubiquitous throughout the natural, social, and computational sciences. In this monograph we explore the…
We derive an identity for certain linear combinations of polylogarithm functions with negative exponents, which implies relations for linear combinations of Eulerian numbers. The coefficients of our linear combinations are related to…
We present explicit expressions for multi-fold logarithmic integrals that are equivalent to sums over polygamma functions at integer argument. Such relations find application in perturbative quantum field theory, quantum chemistry, analytic…
We prove that the homogeneously polyanalytic functions of total order $m$, defined by the system of equations $\overline{D}^{(k_1,\ldots,k_n)} f=0$ with $k_1+\cdots+k_n=m$, can be written as polynomials of total degree $<m$ in variables…
A new summation method is introduced to convert a relatively wide family of infinite sums and local expansions into integrals. The integral representations yield global information such as analytic continuability, position of singularities,…
We deal with the random combinatorial structures called assemblies. By weakening the logarithmic condition which assures regularity of the number of components of a given order, we extend the notion of logarithmic assemblies. Using the…
The Euler-MacLaurin summation formula relates a sum of a function to a corresponding integral, with a remainder term. The remainder term has an asymptotic expansion, and for a typical analytic function, it is a divergent (Gevrey-1) series.…
We introduce a natural definition for sums of the form \[ \sum_{\nu=1}^x f(\nu) \] when the number of terms x is a rather arbitrary real or even complex number. The resulting theory includes the known interpolation of the factorial by the…
Simplification of fractional powers of positive rational numbers and of sums, products and powers of such numbers is taught in beginning algebra. Such numbers can often be expressed in many ways, as this article discusses in some detail.…
Prolog's ability to return multiple answers on backtracking provides an elegant mechanism to derive reversible encodings of combinatorial objects as Natural Numbers i.e. {\em ranking} and {\em unranking} functions. Starting from a…
Our central observation is that unbounded additive recurrence establishes a homomorphism between $\mathbb{N}$ and Modus Ponens in a constructive sense. By finding sums of nonconsecutive Fibonacci indices, each inference step corresponds to…
In these lectures we discuss some of the mathematical structures that appear when computing multi-loop Feynman integrals. We focus on a specific class of special functions, the so-called multiple polylogarithms, and discuss introduce their…
We consider multi-polylogarithm functions which are slightly different from the ordinary ones. These functions have two integral representations and an order structure similar to those of multiple zeta star values. We also give a necessary…
Numerical reconstruction techniques are widely employed in the calculation of multi-loop scattering amplitudes. In recent years, it has been observed that the rational functions in multi-loop calculations greatly simplify under partial…
By using the method of iterated integral representations of series, we establish some explicit relationships between multiple zeta values and Integrals of logarithmic functions. As applications of these relations, we show that multiple zeta…
We introduce the notion of numerical functors to generalise Eilenberg & MacLane's polynomial functors to modules over a binomial base ring. After shewing how these functors are encoded by modules over a certain ring, we record a precise…
