A SIMPLE DERIVATION OF ζ ( 1 − k ) = − Bk / k

چکیده
We will show that ζK(s, x) extends for all s ∈ C and is analytic everywhere except at s = 1 where it has a simple pole. It turns out that the special values ζK(1 − k, x) can be written as a polynomial in x, thus giving a generalization of the Bernoulli polynomials (in the case K is totally real). This work had its genesis in looking for simple proofs of the well-known formula ζ(1−k) = −Bk/k, where ζ denotes the Riemann zeta function and Bk is the k-th Bernoulli number. We present two such proofs below. The first proof has direct relevance to what was discussed above. The second, is a justification of a ‘naive’ argument, and is of independent interest. We include it here for its novelty. At the end, we discuss the merits and demerits of each of the methods. Recall that the Riemann ζ-function, originally defined by the Dirichlet series

Fermionic Basis for Space of Operators in the Xxz Model
In the recent study of correlation functions for the infinite XXZ spin chain, a new pair of anti-commuting operators b(ζ), c(ζ) was introduced. They act on the space of quasi-local operators, which are local operators multiplied by the disorder operator q where S(0) = 1 2 ∑0 j=−∞ σ 3 j . For the inhomogeneous chain with the spectral parameters ξk, these operators have simple poles at ζ 2 = ξ k....

متن کاملA Duality of a Twisted Group Algebra of the Hyperoctahedral Group and the Queer Lie Superalgebra
We establish a duality relation (Theorem 4.2) between one of the twisted group algebras, of the hyperoctahedral group Hk (or the Weyl group of type Bk) and a Lie superalgebra q(n0)⊕ q(n1) for any integers k ≥ 4 and n0, n1 ≥ 1. Here q(n0) and q(n1) denote the “queer” Liesuperalgebras as called by some authors. The twisted group algebra B′ k in focus in this paper belongs to a different cocycle f...
متن کاملA sequential Riesz-like criterion for the Riemann hypothesis
Let c k := k j=0 (−1) j k j (1/ζ(2 j + 2)). We prove that the Riemann hypothesis is equivalent to c k k −3/4+ for all > 0; furthermore, we prove that c k k −3/4 implies that the zeros of ζ(s) are simple. This is closely related to M. Riesz's criterion which states that the Riemann hypothesis is equivalent to ∞ k=1 ((−1) k+1 x k /(k − 1)!ζ(2k)) x 1/4+ as x → +∞, for all > 0.
