In this note, by making use of a known hypergeometric series identity, I prove two Ramanujan-type series for the Catalan's constant. The convergence rate of these central binomial series surpasses those of all known similar series,…
Numbers are often used to define more complicated numbers. For example, two integers are used to define a rational number and two reals are used to define a complex number. It might be expected that an irrational power of an irrational…
We prove that there are at least $1.284 \cdot \sqrt{s/\log s}$ irrational numbers among $\zeta(3)$, $\zeta(5)$, $\zeta(7)$, $\ldots$, $\zeta(s-1)$ for any sufficiently large even integer $s$. This result improves upon the previous finding…
In this paper, Riemann's Zeta function with odd positive integer argument is represented as an infinite summation of integer powers of $\pi$ with rational coefficients. Specific values for Apery's Constant and Catalan's Constant are then…
This paper studies the connections between the zeros and their distribution functions for two particular Dirichlet $L$ functions: the Riemann zeta function, and the Catalan beta function, also known as the Dirichlet beta function. It is…
As we have shown several years ago [Y2], zeros of $L(s, \Delta )$ and $L^(2)(s, \Delta )$ can be calculated quite efficiently by a certain experimental method. Here $\Delta$ denotes the cusp form of weight 12 with respect to SL$(2, Z)$ and…
We show that the Lambert series $f(x)=\sum d(n) x^n$ is irrational at $x=1/b$ for negative integers $b < -1$ using an elementary proof that finishes an incomplete proof of Erdos.
We report new hypergeometric constructions of rational approximations to Catalan's constant, $\log2$, and $\pi^2$, their connection with already known ones, and underlying "permutation group" structures. Our principal arithmetic achievement…
We obtain a new characterization for irrational numbers of constant type -- defined as irrationals with bounded partial quotients in their continued fraction expansion. The result is essential in the formulation of stability criteria for…
In this paper, we establish the irrationality of some open problems in mathematics based on using a recursive formula that generate the complete sequence of numbers. see [1] But before getting into that we begin with some Ramanujan notable…
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.…
In this paper we refine Ball-Rivoal's theorem by proving that for any odd integer $a$ sufficiently large in terms of $\epsilon>0$, there exist $[ \frac{(1-\epsilon)\log a}{1+\log 2}]$ odd integers $s$ between 3 and $a$, with distance at…
We provide a lower bound for the dimension of the vector space spanned by 1 and by the values of the Riemann Zeta function at the first odd integers. As a consequence, the Zeta function takes infinitely many irrational values at odd…
We give an explicit upper bound for non-principal Dirichlet $L$-functions on the line $s=1+it$. This result can be applied to improve the error in the zero-counting formulae for these functions.
We introduce and study the number of tilings of unit height rectangles with irrational tiles. We prove that the class of sequences of these numbers coincides with the class of diagonals of N-rational generating functions and a class of…
We believe that Euler constant is not just the "renormalized" value of the Riemann zeta function in 1. In a sense that we shall clarify it is in fact the normal and natural value of zeta of 1. In this paper we first propose a limit…
We use the Arakawa-Berndt theory of generalized eta-functions to prove a conjecture of Lal\`in, Rodrigue and Rogers concerning the algebraic nature of special values of the secant zeta functions.
The paper presents upper estimates for the irrationality measure and the non-quadraticity measure for the numbers $\alpha_k=\sqrt{2k+1}\ln\frac{\sqrt{2k+1}-1}{\sqrt{2k+1}+1}, \ k\in\mathbb N.$
Let $(a_n), (b_n)$ be linear recursive sequences of integers with characteristic polynomials $A(X),B(X)\in \mathbb{Z}[X]$ respectively. Assume that $A(X)$ has a dominating and simple real root $\alpha$, while $B(X)$ has a pair of conjugate…
The attributes of Euler's constant Gamma have been a baffling problem to the world's mathematicians in the number theory field. In 1900, when German mathematician D. Hilbert addressed the 2nd International Congress of Mathematicians, he…
