Title: On some relations associated to special values of the digamma function
Abstract: A distribution relation is a relation of the form f(x) = \sum_{b=0}^{m-1}f((x+b)/m) for all numbers x and for all natural numbers m. These relations are known for the Bernoulli polynomials and for logarithm of Cyclotomic units. The above identity should be thought of obtaining a value of the function in a `lower level' from some values in the `higher level'. In this talk, we shall discuss some of the relations associated to the special values of the digamma function. This is a joint work with Ram Murty (work in progress).
