Theorems in analytic number theory

Ramanujan's master theorem

In mathematics, Ramanujan's Master Theorem, named after Srinivasa Ramanujan, is a technique that provides an analytic expression for the Mellin transform of an analytic function. The result is stated as follows: If a complex-valued function has an expansion of the form then the Mellin transform of is given by where is the gamma function. It was widely used by Ramanujan to calculate definite integrals and infinite series. Higher-dimensional versions of this theorem also appear in quantum physics (through Feynman diagrams). A similar result was also obtained by Glaisher. (Wikipedia).

Ramanujan graphs of every degree - Daniel Spielman

Daniel Spielman Yale University November 6, 2014 We explain what Ramanujan graphs are, and prove that there exist infinite families of bipartite Ramanujan graphs of every degree. Our proof follows a plan suggested by Bilu and Linial, and exploits a proof of a conjecture of theirs about li
