Recently, Todorov and Wilf independently realized that de Branges' original proof of the Bieberbach and Milin conjectures and the proof that was later given by Weinstein deal with the same special function system that de Branges had…
The purpose of this paper is to make an introduction to univalent function theory for readers of any level, assuming only foundational knowledge in real and complex analysis. In particular, we state and proof (with details) important…
The famous Bieberbach Conjecture from 1916 on the coefficients of normalized univalent functions defined in the unit disk that was finally proved by de Branges some 70 years later, drifted many complex analysts attention to other subjects.…
Weinstein's[2] brilliant short proof of de Branges'[1] theorem can be made yet much shorter(modulo routine calculations), completely elementary (modulo L\"owner theory), self contained(no need for the esoteric Legendre polynomials' addition…
I. M. Milin proposed, in his 1971 paper, a system of inequalities for the logarithmic coefficients of normalized univalent functions on the unit disk of the complex plane. This is known as the Lebedev-Milin conjecture and implies the…
At the end of 1960's, Lawrence Zalcman posed a conjecture that the coefficients of univalent functions $f(z) = z + \sum\limits_2^\infty a_n z^n$ on the unit disk satisfy the sharp inequality $|a_n^2 - a_{2n-1}| \le (n-1)^2$, with equality…
In this paper, we prove a new identity for values of the Hurwitz zeta function which contains as particular cases Koecher's identity for odd zeta values, the Bailey-Borwein-Bradley identity for even zeta values and many other interesting…
Koecher in 1980 derived a method for obtaining identities for the Riemann zeta function at odd positive integers, including a classical result for $\zeta(3)$ due to Markov and rediscovered by Ap\'ery. In this paper we extend Koecher's…
The well-known Zalcman conjecture, which implies the Bieberbach conjecture, states that the coefficients of univalent functions $f(z) = z + \sum\limits_2^{\infty} a_n z^n$ on the unit disk satisfy $|a_n^2 - a_{2n-1}| \le (n-1)^2$ for all $n…
We formulate a refined version of the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture for abelian varieties over global function fields. This refinement incorporates both families of congruences between the leading terms of Artin-Hasse-Weil $L$-series…
In 1987, C. Sabbah proved the existence of Bernstein-Sato polynomials associated with several analytic functions. The purpose of this article is to give a more elementary and constructive proof of the result of C. Sabbah based on the notion…
L. Weinstein's brilliant short proof of de Branges's Theorem is made even shorter by using computer algebra.
We give a bijective proof of an identity relating primed shifted gl(n)-standard tableaux to the product of a gl(n) character in the form of a Schur function and a product of sums of x and y terms. This result generalises a number of…
Helmut Hofer introduced in '93 a novel technique based on holomorphic curves to prove the Weinstein conjecture. Among the cases where these methods apply are all contact 3--manifolds $(M,\xi)$ with $\pi_2(M) \ne 0$. We modify Hofer's…
By using the Wilf-Zeilberger method, we prove a novel finite combinatorial identity related to a bivariate generating function for $\zeta(2+r+2s)$ (an extension of a Bailey-Borwein-Bradley Apery-like formula for even zeta values). Such…
In this paper, we employ the theories and techniques of hypergeometric functions to provide two distinct proofs of the conjectured identities involving multiple Ap\'ery-like series with central binomial coefficients and multiple harmonic…
Given an abelian variety $A$ over a global function field $K$ of characteristic $p>0$ and an irreducible complex continuous representation $\psi$ of the absolute Galois group of $K$, we obtain a BSD-type formula for the leading term of…

We use both Abel's lemma on summation by parts and Zeilberger's algorithm to find recurrence relations for definite summations. The role of Abel's lemma can be extended to the case of linear difference operators with polynomial…
We prove two multivariate $q$-binomial identities conjectured by Bousseau, Brini and van Garrel [Geom. Topol. 28 (2024), 393-496, arXiv:2011.08830] which give generating series for Gromov-Witten invariants of two specific log Calabi-Yau…
