Multiplication and Inversion Formulas for Higher-Order Lerch Zeta Functions with Polynomial Coefficients

Abstract

We consider the N-tuple Hurwitz-Lerch zeta function introduced by Srivastava and Choi, ζN(s,x,λ)=∑k1,…,kN≥0λk1+⋯+kN(x+k1+⋯+kN)s, where N is a positive integer and λ is a complex parameter. A central breakthrough in this work is the explicit reduction of the N-tuple function to a linear combination of single Lerch transcendents via a finite-difference identity, which naturally leads to sharp multiplication and inversion formulas. We further investigate the combinatorial structure of the underlying polynomial coefficients, establishing their symmetry, unimodality, log-concavity, and precise asymptotic behavior. As key applications, we derive new identities for higher-order Apostol-Euler and Apostol-Bernoulli polynomials. Our results unify and extend several known formulas.

Fractional Symmetry and Comparison Structures of the Lerch Transcendent

The Lerch transcendent is a three-parameter special function containing the Riemann zeta, Hurwitz zeta, Dirichlet eta, and polylogarithm functions as distinguished specializations. This study develops a defect-based framework for comparing fractional differentiation with parameter transformations and authentic function...

Identities Arising from a Certain Family of Special Combinatorial Numbers and Polynomials

The results obtained in this paper extend several identities and interpolation formulas previously established for the numbers y9,n(λ;a) to the higher-order case. We derive several explicit formulas, identities, and recurrence-type relations, and establish connections with well-known families of special numbers and pol...

Upper bounds for arithmetic functions over polynomial values via Chebotarev--Sato--Tate distributions

We establish logarithmic upper bounds for nonnegative multiplicative functions evaluated at values of multivariable polynomials. The polynomial contribution is encoded by the permutation character on the geometric irreducible components of the corresponding hypersurface, while the arithmetic contribution is described b...

Infinite-order $p$-adic differential equations for Hurwitz-type Euler zeta functions: Uniqueness and higher-dimensional extensions

We generalize the one-dimensional infinite-order linear differential equation satisfied by the $p$-adic Hurwitz-type Euler zeta function (Abh. Math. Semin. Univ. Hambg. 91: 117--135, 2021) to $n$ variables. By encoding the differential operator as a convolution with a distribution kernel, we introduce partial zeta func...

Logarithmic moments of the Rogers-Ramanujan continued fraction and odd zeta values

We study how the two cusp expansions of the Rogers-Ramanujan continued fraction control its ordinary and logarithmic Mellin moments. Ramanujan's factorizations express the logarithmic transform as a combination of products of zeta and quadratic Dirichlet $L$-functions. Its adjacent integer and half-integer values give...

Rational Approximations for Reciprocals of Multiple Zeta Values and Trivariate Cauchy Numbers

In this paper, we will study a trivariate extension of the Cauchy numbers of both the first kind (also called Gregory coefficients) and the second kind (also called N\"orlund numbers) via the Laurent expansion of the reciprocal of any positive integer power (which is called the order) of multiple polylogarithms. In the...
