## Abstract In this paper, we have exhibited, by utilizing value distribution theory, some new properties of the Gamma function Ξ(__z__) and the Riemann zeta function ΞΆ(__z__). Specifically, we have proved that both of the two functions are prime and the Riemann zeta function, like Ξ(__z__), does n

β¦ Synopsis
We show how various known results concerning the Barnes multiple zeta and gamma functions can be obtained as specializations of simple features shared by a quite extensive class of functions. The pertinent functions involve Laplace transforms, and their asymptotics is obtained by exploiting this. We also demonstrate how Barnes' multiple zeta and gamma functions fit into a recently developed theory of minimal solutions to first order analytic difference equations. Both of these new approaches to the Barnes functions give rise to novel integral representations. 2000 Academic Press Contents. 1. Introduction. 2. Generalized Barnes functions. 3.

We give an explicit description of functional equations satisfied by zeta functions on the space of unramified hermitian forms over a p-adic field. Further, as an application, we give explicit expressions of local densities of integral representations of nondegenerate unramified hermitian matrices w
## Abstract The Gamma function and its __n__ th logarithmic derivatives (that is, the polygamma or the psiβfunctions) have found many interesting and useful applications in a variety of subjects in pure and applied mathematics. Here we mainly apply these functions to treat convolutions of the Rayle
In this paper we present a relation among the multiple zeta values which generalizes simultaneously the ``sum formula'' and the ``duality'' theorem. As an application, we give a formula for the special values at positive integral points of a certain zeta function of Arakawa and Kaneko in terms of mu
