We investigate the period function of $\sum_{n=1}^\infty\sigma_a(n)\e{nz}$, showing it can be analytically continued to $|\arg z|<\pi$ and studying its Taylor series. We use these results to give a simple proof of the Voronoi formula and to…

We prove recursive formulas for sums of squares and sums of triangular numbers in terms of sums of divisors functions and we give a variety of consequences of these formulas. Intermediate applications include statements about positivity of…

Riemann sums, a classical method for approximating the definite integral of a function, have been extensively studied in the past. However, their monotonic properties, while still of great importance, particularly in approximation theory…

Several sums of Neumann series with Bessel and trigonometric functions are evaluated, as finite sums of trigonometric functions. They arise from a generalization of the Neumann expansion of the eigenstates of the Laplacian in regular…

We study divisibility properties of certain sums and alternating sums involving binomial coefficients and powers of integers. For example, we prove that for all positive integers $n_1,..., n_m$, $n_{m+1}=n_1$, and any nonnegative integer…

Recently, Kargin et al. (arXiv:2008.00284 [math.NT]) obtained (among many other things) the following formula for the hyper-sums of powers of integers $S_k^{(m)}(n)$ \begin{equation*} S_k^{(m)}(n) = \frac{1}{m!} \sum_{i=0}^{m} (-1)^i…

General extensions of an inequality due to Rogozin, concerning the essential supremum of a convolution of probability density functions on the real line, are obtained. While a weak version of the inequality is proved in the very general…

We prove that there exist positive constants $C$ and $c$ such that for any integer $d \ge 2$ the set of ${\mathbf x}\in [0,1)^d$ satisfying $$ cN^{1/2}\le \left|\sum^N_{n=1}\exp\left (2 \pi i \left (x_1n+\ldots+x_d n^d\right)\right)…

Counting functions are constructed for sums of integers raised to a fixed positive rational power. That is, given values formed by $u_1^{j/k} + u_2^{j/k} + ... + u_l^{j/k}$, $u_i \in \mathbb{Z}^+$, the number of values less than or equal to…

This paper generalizes Kocay's lemma, with particular applications to graph reconstruction, as well as discussing and proving aspects around the power of these generalizations and Kocay's original lemma, with a result on the reconstruction…

This paper gives new explicit formulas for sums of powers of integers and their reciprocals.

In this paper we characterize the congruence associated to the direct sum of all irreducible representations of a finite semigroup over an arbitrary field, generalizing results of Rhodes for the field of complex numbers. Applications are…

We consider the asymptotics of sums of the form $$ \frac1{F_n^\sigma} \sum_{m = 1}^{F_n-1} \frac{f(m/F_n)}{\left|{\sin(\pi m/F_n)}\right|^\sigma} \frac{f(F_{n-1}m/F_n)}{\left|{\sin(\pi F_{n-1}m/F_n)}\right|^\sigma} $$ where $(F_n)_{n \in…

In this paper, for coprime numbers p and q we consider the well known Dedekind sums S(p,q) First, we give an improvement of the proof given by H. Rademacher and A. Whiteman, and we construct a new arithmetical proof for the reciprocity law

The paper is concerned with the Kontsevich-Zagier formal power series $$ f(q)=\sum_{n=0}^\infty (1-q)... (1-q^n) $$ and its analytic properties. To begin with, we give an explicit formula for the Borel transform of the associated formal…

In this paper we are concerned with a family of sums involving the floor function. With $r$ a non negative integer and $n$ and $m$ positive integers we consider the sums…

We introduce and study the \emph{Rademacher-Carlitz polynomial} \[ \RC(u, v, s, t, a, b) := \sum_{k = \lceil s \rceil}^{\lceil s \rceil + b - 1} u^{\fl{\frac{ka + t}{b}}} v^k \] where $a, b \in \Z_{>0}$, $s, t \in \R$, and $u$ and $v$ are…

For the one dimensional infinite group relaxation, we construct a sequence of extreme valid functions that are piecewise linear and such that for every natural number $k\geq 2$, there is a function in the sequence with $k$ slopes. This…

In this paper, we prove two results related to the solutions of norm form equations. Firstly, we give a finiteness result for sums of terms of linear recurrence sequences appearing in the coordinates of solutions of norm form equations.…

In a recent work Brevik \emph{et al.} have offered formal proofs of two results which figure prominently in calculations of the Casimir pressure on a sphere. It is shown by means of simple counterexamples that each of those proofs is…
