We define Witten multiple zeta-functions associated with semisimple Lie algebras $\mathrm{𝔰𝔩}\left(n\right)$, $(n=2,3,...)$ of several complex variables, and prove the analytic continuation of them. These can be regarded as several variable generalizations of Witten zeta-functions defined by Zagier. In the case $\mathrm{𝔰𝔩}\left(4\right)$, we determine the singularities of this function. Furthermore we prove certain functional relations among this function, the Mordell-Tornheim double zeta-functions and the Riemann zeta-function. Using these relations, we prove...

In the paper the asymptotics for Dirichlet polynomials associated to certain cusp forms are obtained.

A formula for the mean value of multiplicative functions associated to certain cusp forms is obtained. The paper is a continuation of [4].

L’article donne des réponses optimales ou presque optimales aux questions suivantes, qui remontent à Stieltjes, Landau et Bohr, et concernent des séries de Dirichlet $A_j=\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }a(j,n)n^{-s}$$(j=1,2...$

On étudie sommairement la distribution des valeurs de $L^{\text{'}}(1,\chi )$ ($\chi$ : caractère de Dirichlet primitif réel) et on constate qu’on a en général $L^{\text{'}}(1,\chi )\<{\pi }^2/6$; on démontre par ailleurs que si $L^{\text{'}}(1,\chi )\<({\pi }^2/6)-ϵ$, alors$L(1,\chi )\>c\left(ϵ\right)/logk$ ($k$ : conducteur de $\chi$; $c\left(ϵ\right)$: constante positive effectivement calculable.

Mertens’ product formula asserts that$$\prod _{p\le x}\left(1-\frac{1}{p}\right)logx\to e^{-\gamma }$$as $x\to \infty$. Calculation shows that the right side of the formula exceeds the left side for $2\le x\le {10}^8$. It was suggested by Rosser and Schoenfeld that, by analogy with Littlewood’s result on $\pi \left(x\right)-\mathrm{li}x$, this and a complementary inequality might change their sense for sufficiently large values of $x$. We show this to be the case.
