Fourier-Dedekind sums are a generalization of Dedekind sums - important number-theoretical objects that arise in many areas of mathematics, including lattice point enumeration, signature defects of manifolds and pseudo random number…

We give explicit, polynomial-time computable formulas for the number of integer points in any two-dimensional rational polygon. A rational polygon is one whose vertices have rational coordinates. We find that the basic building blocks of…

Dedekind sums, arithmetic correlation sums that arose in Dedekind's study of the modular transformation of the logarithm of the eta-function, are surprisingly ubiquitous. Their arithmetic properties attracted the attention of number…

We study reciprocity formulas for Dedekind sums associated with absolutely continuous functions, extending the classical Dedekind-Rademacher reciprocity formula. In particular, we treat the case of periodic Bernoulli functions. Our approach…

Let a, a_1, ..., a_d be positive integers, m_1, ..., m_d nonnegative integers, and z_1, ..., z_d complex numbers. We study expressions of the form \[ \sum_{k \text{mod} a} \prod_{j=1}^d \cot^{(m_j)} \pi (\frac{k a_j}{a} + z_j ) . \] Here…

We consider generalized Dedekind sums in dimension $n$, for fixed $n$-tuple of natural numbers, defined as sum of products of values of periodic Bernoulli functions. This includes the higher dimensional Dedekind sums of Zagier and…

We study higher-dimensional analogs of the Dedekind-Carlitz polynomials c(u,v;a,b) := sum_{k=1..b-1} u^[ka/b] v^(k-1), where u and v are indeterminates and a and b are positive integers. Carlitz proved that these polynomials satisfy the…

Higher-dimensional Dedekind sums are defined as a generalization of a recent 1-dimensional probability model of Dilcher and Girstmair to a d-dimensional cube. The analysis of the frequency distribution of marked lattice points leads to new…

Dedekind sums are arithmetic sums that were first introduced by Dedekind in the context of elliptic functions and modular forms, and later recognized to be surprisingly ubiquitous. Among the variations and generalizations introduced since,…

We study the number of lattice points in integer dilates of the rational polytope $P = (x_1,...,x_n) \in \R_{\geq 0}^n : \sum_{k=1}^n x_k a_k \leq 1$, where $a_1,...,a_n$ are positive integers. This polytope is closely related to the linear…

Dedekind sums are well-studied arithmetic sums, with values uniformly distributed on the unit interval. Based on their relation to certain modular forms, Dedekind sums may be defined as functions on the cusp set of $SL(2,\mathbb{Z})$. We…

Dedekind symbols are generalizations of the classical Dedekind sums (symbols). There is a natural isomorphism between the space of Dedekind symbols with Laurent polynomial reciprocity laws and the space of modular forms. We will define a…

Building upon the work of Stucker, Vennos, and Young we derive generalized Dedekind sums arising from period integrals applied to holomorphic Eisenstein series attached to pairs of primitive non-trivial Dirichlet characters. Furthermore, we…

Dedekind sums have applications in quite a number of fields of mathematics. Therefore, their distribution has found considerable interest. This article gives a survey of several aspects of the distribution of these sums. In particular, it…

Let $p_1,p_2,\dots,p_n, a_1,a_2,\dots,a_n \in \N$, $x_1,x_2,\dots,x_n \in \R$, and denote the $k$th periodized Bernoulli polynomial by $\B_k(x)$. We study expressions of the form \[ \sum_{h \bmod{a_k}} \ \prod_{\substack{i=1\\ i\not=k}}^{n}…

Classical Dedekind sums are connected to the modular group through the construction of a (Dedekind) symbol on the cusp set of the modular group. In this paper we study generalizations of Dedekind symbols and sums that can be associated to…

Elliptic Dedekind sums were introduced by R. Sczech as generalizations of classical Dedekind sums to complex lattices. We show that for any lattice with real $j$-invariant, the values of suitably normalized elliptic Dedekind sums are dense…

We solve an open problem proposed in the book ``Computing the continuous discretely" written by Matthias Beck and Sinai Robins. That is, we proposed a polynomial time algorithm for calculating Fourier-Dedekind sums. The algorithm is simple…

The classical Dedekind sums appear in the transformation behavior of the logarithm of the Dedekind eta-function under substitutions from the modular group. The Dedekind sums and their generalizations are defined in terms of Bernoulli…

A beautiful theorem of Zeckendorf states that every positive integer has a unique decomposition as a sum of non-adjacent Fibonacci numbers. Such decompositions exist more generally, and much is known about them. First, for any positive…
