The Riemann Zeta-function ζ(s) : generalities
نویسندگان
چکیده
The series is convergent when s is a complex number with <(s) > 1. Some special values of ζ(s) are well known, for example the values ζ(2) = π/6, ζ(4) = π/90, were obtained by Euler. In 1859, Riemann had the idea to define ζ(s) for all complex number s by analytic continuation. This continuation is very important in number theory and plays a central role in the study of the distribution of prime numbers. Several techniques permit to extend the domain of definition of the Zeta function (the continuation is independant of the technique used because of uniqueness of analytic continuation). One can for example start from the Zeta alternating series (also called the Dirichlet eta function)

متن کاملA 11 Integers 11 B ( 2011 ) Dynamical Zeta Functions
These notes are a rather subjective account of the theory of dynamical zeta functions. They correspond to three lectures presented by the author at the “Numeration” meeting in Leiden in 2010. 1 A Selection of Zeta Functions In its various manifestations, a zeta function ζ(s) is usually a function of a complex variable s ∈ C. We will concentrate on three main types of zeta function, arising in t...

متن کاملA Discrete Mean Value of the Derivative of the Riemann Zeta Function
In this article we compute a discrete mean value of the derivative of the Riemann zeta function. This mean value will be important for several applications concerning the size of ζ(ρ) where ζ(s) is the Riemann zeta function and ρ is a non-trivial zero of the Riemann zeta function.
متن کاملIrrationality of values of the Riemann zeta function
The paper deals with a generalization of Rivoal’s construction, which enables one to construct linear approximating forms in 1 and the values of the zeta function ζ(s) only at odd points. We prove theorems on the irrationality of the number ζ(s) for some odd integers s in a given segment of the set of positive integers. Using certain refined arithmetical estimates, we strengthen Rivoal’s origin...
