The Fock representation of the Virasoro Lie algebra is extended to a larger graded Lie subalgebra of the algebra of differential operators on the circle. The central cocycle is related to values of the Riemann Zeta function at odd negative integers. The corresponding generating function is related t

β¦ Synopsis
Finite differences of values of the Riemann zeta function at the integers are explored. Such quantities, which occur as coefficients in Newton series representations, have surfaced in works of Bombieri-Lagarias, MaΕlanka, Coffey, BΓ‘ez-Duarte, Voros and others. We apply the theory of NΓΆrlund-Rice integrals in conjunction with the saddle-point method and derive precise asymptotic estimates. The method extends to Dirichlet L-functions and our estimates appear to be partly related to earlier investigations surrounding Li's criterion for the Riemann hypothesis.

After a brief review in the first section of the definitions and basic properties of the Riemann and Goss zeta functions, we begin in Section 2 the analysis of the generalized Goss zeta function by examining its stabilization properties. An idea in this section gives rise to the new concept of a sta
The algebraic and combinatorial theory of shuffles, introduced by Chen and Ree, is further developed and applied to the study of multiple zeta values. In particular, we establish evaluations for certain sums of cyclically generated multiple zeta values. The boundary case of our result reduces to a f
We calculate exact measures of irrationality of certain Carlitz zeta values. By using a conjecture about the "Roth Theorem" in characteristic \(p\), we show that these results lead to transcendence results. 1993 Academic Press, Inc.
We prove that certain families of duality relations of the multiple zeta values (MZV's) are consequences of the extended double shuffle relations (EDSR's), thereby proving a part of the conjecture that the EDSR's give all linear relations of the MZV's.
