A two-term functional equation for an infinite series involving the digamma function and a logarithmic factor is derived. A modular relation on page 220 of Ramanujan's Lost Notebook as well as a corresponding recent result for the derivative of Deninger's function are two main ingredients in its derivation. An interesting integral $\mathscr{H}(x)$, which is of independent interest, plays a prominent role in our functional equation. Several alternative representations for $\mathscr{H}(x)$ are obtained.
In this work we introduce interesting infinite series, related to Ramanujan-Soldner constant. Our method uses general properties of polynomials of binomial type and Lagrange inversion theorem. Also we study properties of the operator 1/dlog, acting on formal power series. In addition, several properties of polynomials of binomial type associated to elementary functions are discussed.
We give a simple proof and a multivariable generalization of an identity due to E. Alkan concerning a weighted average of the Ramanujan sums. We deduce identities for other weighted averages of the Ramanujan sums with weights concerning logarithms, values of arithmetic functions for gcd's, the Gamma function, the Bernoulli polynomials, and binomial coefficients.
We derive a Motohashi-type formula for the cubic moment of central values of $L$-functions of level $q$ cusp forms twisted by quadratic characters of conductor $q$, previously studied by Conrey and Iwaniec and Young. Corollaries of this formula include Weyl-subconvex bounds for $L$-functions of weight two cusp forms twisted by quadratic characters, and estimates towards the Ramanujan-Petersson conjecture for Fourier coefficients of weight 3/2 cusp forms.
We prove that $q+1$-regular Morgenstern Ramanujan graphs $X^{q,g}$ (depending on $g\in\mathbb{F}_q[t]$) have diameter at most $\left(\frac{4}{3}+\varepsilon\right)\log_{q}|X^{q,g}|+O_{\varepsilon}(1)$ (at least for odd $q$ and irreducible $g$) provided that a twisted Linnik-Selberg conjecture over $\mathbb{F}_q(t)$ is true. This would break the 30 year-old upper bound of $2\log_{q}|X^{q,g}|+O(1)$, a consequence of a well-known upper bound on the diameter of regular Ramanujan graphs proved by Lubotzky, Phillips, and Sarnak using the Ramanujan bound on Fourier coefficients of modular forms. We a…
The Ramanujan Machine project detects new expressions related to constants of interest, such as $ζ$ function values, $γ$ and algebraic numbers (to name a few). In particular the project lists a number of conjectures involving even and odd $ζ$ function values, logarithms etc. We show that many relations detected by the Ramanujan Machine Project stem from a specific algebraic observation and show how to generate infinitely many. This provides an automated proof and/or an explanation of many of the relations listed as conjectures by the project (although not all of them).
We discuss moments of the Riemann zeta-function in this paper. The purpose of this paper is to give an upper bound of exponential moments of the logarithm of the Riemann zeta-function twisted by arguments. Our results contain an improvement of Najnudel result for exponential moments of the argument of the Riemann zeta-function and an unconditional upper bound of the moments.
In the first part we construct algorithms which we apply to solve S-unit, Mordell, cubic Thue, cubic Thue-Mahler and generalized Ramanujan-Nagell equations. As a byproduct we obtain alternative practical approaches for various classical Diophantine problems, including the fundamental problem of finding all elliptic curves over Q with good reduction outside a given finite set of rational primes. To illustrate the utility of our algorithms we determined the solutions of large classes of equations, containing many examples of interest which are out of reach for the known methods. In addition we u…
We introduce a fast algorithm to compute the Ramanujan-Deninger gamma function and its logarithmic derivative at positive values. Such an algorithm allows us to greatly extend the numerical investigations about the Euler-Kronecker constants $\mathfrak{G}_q$, $\mathfrak{G}_q^+$ and $M_q=\max_{χ\ne χ_0} \vert L^\prime/L(1,χ)\vert$, where $q$ is an odd prime, $χ$ runs over the primitive Dirichlet characters $\bmod\ q$, $χ_0$ is the trivial Dirichlet character $\bmod\ q$ and $L(s,χ)$ is the Dirichlet $L$-function associated to $χ$. Using such algorithms we obtained that $\mathfrak{G}_{50 040 955 6…
It is pointed out that the generalized Lambert series $\displaystyle\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{n^{N-2h}}{e^{n^{N}x}-1}$ studied by Kanemitsu, Tanigawa and Yoshimoto can be found on page $332$ of Ramanujan's Lost Notebook in a slightly more general form. We extend an important transformation of this series obtained by Kanemitsu, Tanigawa and Yoshimoto by removing restrictions on the parameters $N$ and $h$ that they impose. From our extension we deduce a beautiful new generalization of Ramanujan's famous formula for odd zeta values which, for $N$ odd and $m>0$, gives a relation between $ζ(2m+1)$ a…
We establish the first moment bound $$ \sum_φ L(φ\otimes φ\otimes Ψ, \tfrac{1}{2}) \ll_{\varepsilon} p^{5/4+\varepsilon} $$ for triple product $L$-functions, where $Ψ$ is a fixed Hecke-Maass form on $\operatorname{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z})$ and $φ$ runs over the Hecke-Maass newforms on $Γ_0(p)$ of bounded eigenvalue. The proof is via the theta correspondence and analysis of periods of half-integral weight modular forms. This estimate is not expected to be optimal, but the exponent $5/4$ is the strongest obtained to date for a moment problem of this shape. We show that the expected upper bound follows …
In this paper new series for the first and second Stieltjes constants (also known as generalized Euler's constant), as well as for some closely related constants are obtained. These series contain rational terms only and involve the so-called Gregory coefficients, which are also known as (reciprocal) logarithmic numbers, Cauchy numbers of the first kind and Bernoulli numbers of the second kind. In addition, two interesting series with rational terms are given for Euler's constant and the constant ln(2*pi), and yet another generalization of Euler's constant is proposed and various formulas for …

We study the asymptotic behaviour of the twisted first moment of central $L$-values associated to cusp forms in weight aspect on average. Our estimate of the error term allows extending the logarithmic length of mollifier $Δ$ up to 2. The best previously known result, due to Iwaniec and Sarnak, was $Δ<1$. The proof is based on a representation formula for the error in terms of Legendre polynomials.
