Definition of the Riemann zeta function #
Main definitions: #
riemannZeta
: the Riemann zeta functionζ : ℂ → ℂ
.riemannCompletedZeta
: the completed zeta functionΛ : ℂ → ℂ
, which satisfiesΛ(s) = π ^ (-s / 2) Γ(s / 2) ζ(s)
(away from the poles ofΓ(s / 2)
).riemannCompletedZeta₀
: the entire functionΛ₀
satisfyingΛ₀(s) = Λ(s) + 1 / (s - 1) - 1 / s
wherever the RHS is defined.
Note that mathematically ζ(s)
is undefined at s = 1
, while Λ(s)
is undefined at both s = 0
and s = 1
. Our construction assigns some values at these points (which are not arbitrary, but
I haven't checked exactly what they are).

Outline of proofs: #
We define two related functions on the reals, zetaKernel₁
and zetaKernel₂
. The first is
(θ (t * I) - 1) / 2
, where θ
is Jacobi's theta function; its Mellin transform is exactly the
completed zeta function. The second is obtained by subtracting a linear combination of powers on
the interval Ioc 0 1
to give a function with exponential decay at both 0
and ∞
. We then define
riemannCompletedZeta₀
as the Mellin transform of the second zeta kernel, and define
riemannCompletedZeta
and riemannZeta
from this.
Since zetaKernel₂
has rapid decay and satisfies a functional equation relating its values at t
and 1 / t
, we deduce the analyticity of riemannCompletedZeta₀
and the functional equation
relating its values at s
and 1 - s
. On the other hand, since zetaKernel₁
can be expanded in
powers of exp (-π * t)
and the Mellin transform integrated term-by-term, we obtain the relation
to the naive Dirichlet series ∑' (n : ℕ), 1 / (n + 1) ^ s
.

First properties of the zeta kernels #
Relate zetaKernel₁
to the Jacobi theta function on ℍ
. (We don't use this as the definition
of zetaKernel₁
, since the sum over ℕ
rather than ℤ
is more convenient for relating zeta to
the Dirichlet series for re s > 1
.)

## Bounds for zeta kernels
We now establish asymptotic bounds for the zeta kernels as t → ∞
and t → 0
, and use these to
show holomorphy of their Mellin transforms (for 1 / 2 < re s
for zetaKernel₁
, and all s
for
zetaKernel₂
).

Differentiability of the completed zeta function #
The Mellin transform of the first zeta kernel is holomorphic for 1 / 2 < re s
.
The Mellin transform of the second zeta kernel is entire.
The modified completed Riemann zeta function Λ(s) + 1 / s - 1 / (s - 1)
is entire.
The completed Riemann zeta function Λ(s)
is differentiable away from s = 0
and s = 1
(where it has simple poles).
The Riemann zeta function is differentiable away from s = 1
.
The trivial zeroes of the zeta function.
A formal statement of the Riemann hypothesis – constructing a term of this type is worth a million dollars.

Relating the Mellin transforms of the two zeta kernels #
## Relating the first zeta kernel to the Dirichlet series
Auxiliary lemma for mellin_zetaKernel₁_eq_tsum
, computing the Mellin transform of an
individual term in the series.
The Riemann zeta function agrees with the naive Dirichlet-series definition when the latter
converges. (Note that this is false without the assumption: when re s ≤ 1
the sum is divergent,
and we use a different definition to obtain the analytic continuation to all s
.)
Alternate formulation of zeta_eq_tsum_one_div_nat_add_one_cpow
without the + 1
, using the
fact that for s ≠ 0
we define 0 ^ s = 0
.
Special case of zeta_eq_tsum_one_div_nat_cpow
when the argument is in ℕ
, so the power
function can be expressed using naïve pow
rather than cpow
.
Explicit formula for ζ (2 * k)
, for k ∈ ℕ
with k ≠ 0
: we have
ζ (2 * k) = (-1) ^ (k + 1) * 2 ^ (2 * k - 1) * π ^ (2 * k) * bernoulli (2 * k) / (2 * k)!
.

riemannZeta_neg_nat_eq_bernoulli

the functional equation).
