Asymptotic expansions of the Hurwitz-Lerch zeta function

The Hurwitz-Lerch zeta function Φ(z,s,a) is considered for large and small values of a∈C, and for large values of z∈C, with |Arg(a)|<π, z∉[1,∞) and s∈C. This function is originally defined as a power series in z, convergent for |z|<1, s∈C and 1−a∉N. An integral representation is obtained for Φ(z,s,a) which define the analytical continuation of the Hurwitz-Lerch zeta function to the cut complex z-plane C?[1,∞). From this integral we derive three complete asymptotic expansions for either large or small a and large z. These expansions are accompanied by error bounds at any order of the approximation. Numerical experiments show that these bounds are very accurate for real values of the asymptotic variables.     

Remarks on the universality of the periodic zeta function

We study the universality of a Dirichlet series with periodic coefficients. This property is proved in the case of multiplicative coefficients, and in the general case we establish universality in a certain set of analytic functions related to a probability distribution.     

Derivatives of Dedekind sums and their reciprocity law

In this paper derivatives of Dedekind sums are defined, and their reciprocity laws are proved. They are obtained from values at non-positive integers of the first derivatives of Barnes’ double zeta functions. As special cases, they give finite product expressions of the Stirling modular form and the double gamma function at positive rational numbers.     

Values of zeta functions at negative integers, Dedekind sums and toric geometry

We study relations among special values of zeta functions, invariants of toric varieties, and generalized Dedekind sums. In particular, we use invariants arising in the Todd class of a toric variety to give a new explicit formula for the values of the zeta function of a real quadratic field at nonpositive integers. We also express these invariants in terms of the generalized Dedekind sums studied previously by several authors. The paper includes conceptual proofs of these relations and explicit computations of the various zeta values and Dedekind sums involved.

Zeros of Dedekind zeta functions in the critical strip

In this paper, we describe a computation which established the GRH to height (resp. ) for cubic number fields (resp. quartic number fields) with small discriminant. We use a method due to E. Friedman for computing values of Dedekind zeta functions, we take care of accumulated roundoff error to obtain results which are mathematically rigorous, and we generalize Turing's criterion to prove that there is no zero off the critical line. We finally give results concerning the GRH for cubic and quartic fields, tables of low zeros for number fields of degree and , and statistics about the smallest zero of a number field.

     

The average behavior of the coefficients of Dedekind zeta function over square numbers

In this paper, we are interested in the average behavior of the coefficients of Dedekind zeta function over square numbers. In Galois fields of degree d which is odd, when l?1 is an integer, we have

     

Dedekind zeta-functions and Dedekind sums

In this paper we use Dedekind zeta functions of two real quadratic number fields at -1 to denote Dedekind sums of high rank. Our formula is different from that of Siegel’s. As an application, we get a polynomial representation of ζK(-1): ζK(-1) = 1/45(26n³ -41n± 9),n = ±2(mod 5), where K = Q(√5q), prime q = 4n² + 1, and the class number of quadratic number field K2 = Q(vq) is 1.     

Representations for the derivative at zero and finite parts of the Barnes zeta function

We provide new representations for the finite parts at the poles and the derivative at zero of the Barnes zeta function in any dimension in the general case. These representations are in the forms of series and limits. We also give an integral representation for the finite parts at the poles. Similar results are derived for an associated function, which we term homogeneous Barnes zeta function. Our expressions immediately yield analogous representations for the logarithm of the Barnes gamma function, including the particular case also known as multiple gamma function.     

New inequalities for the Hurwitz zeta function

We establish various new inequalities for the Hurwitz zeta function. Our results generalize some known results for the polygamma functions to the Hurwitz zeta function.     

The joint value-distribution of the Riemann zeta function and Hurwitz zeta functions

In this paper, we investigate the joint value-distribution for the Riemann zeta function and Hurwitz zeta function attached with a transcendental real parameter. Especially, we establish the joint universality theorem for these two zeta functions. Published in Lietuvos Matematikos Rinkinys, Vol. 47, No. 1, pp. 39–57, January–March, 2007.     

Trace formula in noncommutative geometry and the zeros of the Riemann zeta function

We give a spectral interpretation of the critical zeros of the Riemann zeta function as an absorption spectrum, while eventual noncritical zeros appear as resonances. We give a geometric interpretation of the explicit formulas of number theory as a trace formula on the noncommutative space of Adele classes. This reduces the Riemann hypothesis to the validity of the trace formula and eliminates the parameter of our previous approach.     

Linear law for the logarithms of the Riemann periods at simple critical zeta zeros

Each simple zero of the Riemann zeta function on the critical line with is a center for the flow of the Riemann xi function with an associated period . It is shown that, as ,

Numerical evaluation leads to the conjecture that this inequality can be replaced by an equality. Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis and a zeta zero separation conjecture for some exponent , we obtain the upper bound . Assuming a weakened form of a conjecture of Gonek, giving a bound for the reciprocal of the derivative of zeta at each zero, we obtain the expected upper bound for the periods so, conditionally, . Indeed, this linear relationship is equivalent to the given weakened conjecture, which implies the zero separation conjecture, provided the exponent is sufficiently large. The frequencies corresponding to the periods relate to natural eigenvalues for the Hilbert-Polya conjecture. They may provide a goal for those seeking a self-adjoint operator related to the Riemann hypothesis.

     

Another discrete Fourier transform pairs associated with the Lipschitz-Lerch zeta function

It is demonstrated that the alternating Lipschitz-Lerch zeta function and the alternating Hurwitz zeta function constitute a discrete Fourier transform pair. This discrete transform pair makes it possible to deduce, as special cases and consequences, many (mainly new) transformation relations involving the values at rational arguments of alternating variants of various zeta functions, such as the Lerch and Hurwitz zeta functions and Legendre chi function.     

Remark on a double-inequality for the Riemann zeta function

Let ζ be the Riemann zeta function and δ(x)=1/(2^x-1). For all x>0 we have
