"Mollifier" of the Dirichlet L-function

I was studying some zero-density results for $\zeta(s)$, mostly from Titchmarsh's book "The Theory of the Riemann zeta function", Chapter 9. In one place, as per the literature, a mollifier ...

$ 0 = 1 + \sum_{n=2}^{\infty} \frac{n^{-s}}{\ln(n)} \implies Re(s) \leq \frac{1}{2}$?

Define $f(s)$ as $$ f(s) = 1 + \sum_{n=2}^{\infty} \frac{n^{-s}}{\ln(n)}$$ where we take the upper complex plane as everywhere analytic. Notice this is an antiderivative of the Riemann Zeta function, ...

Explore the relationship between $\sum\limits_{n = 1}^{2x} \frac{1}{{n^s}^x}$ and $\sum\limits_{n = 1}^{2x-1} \frac{(-1)^{n-1}}{{n^s}^x}$ [closed]

I am trying to find an algorithm with time complexity $O(1)$ for a boring problem code-named P-2000 problem. The answer to this boring question is a boring large number of $601$ digits. The DP ...

How do we increase the region of convergence for the Riemann Zeta function (using Dirichlet Series form)?

The Riemann Zeta Function can be defined as: $\zeta(s)=\sum \frac 1 {n^s}$ for $s>1$. The series converges for $s>1$. wiki (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Riemann_zeta_function) mentions that: An ...

For what values of $c$ is $\sum _{k=1}^{\infty } (-1)^{k+1} x^{c \log (k)}=0$ when $x=\exp \left(-\frac{\rho _1}{c}\right)$?

The alternating Dirichlet series, the Dirichlet eta function, can be written in the form: $\sum _{k=1}^{\infty } (-1)^{k+1} x^{c \log (k)}$ For what values of $c$ is $$\sum _{k=1}^{\infty } (-1)^{k+1}...

About the definition of generalized harmonic numbers and an identity

Some software packages make use of the following definition for generalized harmonic numbers. In what follows, $\sigma,t\in\mathbb{R}$: $$H_{ t }^{(\sigma+it)}=\zeta (\sigma+it)-\zeta \ (\sigma+it, t ...

The evaluation of the coefficient of the Dirichlet series $\zeta'(s)^2$

The derivative of Riemann zeta function is $\zeta'(s)=-\sum_{n=2}^{\infty}(\log{n}) n^{-s}.$ The square of $\zeta'$ is the following Dirichlet series: $$\zeta'(s)^2=\sum_{n=4}^{\infty}a_nn^{-s},$$ ...

Alternating Dirichlet series involving the Möbius function.

It is well known that: $$\sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{\mu(n)}{n^s} = \frac{1}{\zeta(s)} \qquad \Re(s) > 1$$ with $\mu(n)$ the Möbius function and $\zeta(s)$ the Riemann Zeta function. Numerical ...

Convolution Method for Bound

I am reading A survey of gcd-sum functions where the following result is stated: Let $P(n)$ be the Pillai's arithmetical function. The Dirichlet series of $P$ is given by: $$\sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{P(...

Question on conjectured method of extending convergence of Maclaurin series for $\frac{x}{x+1}$ from $|x|<1$ to $\Re(x)>-1$

The question here is motivated by this Math StackExchange question and this Math Overflow question which indicate the evaluation of the Dirchleta eta function $$\eta(s)=\underset{K\to\infty}{\text{lim}...

Dirichlet series for $\frac{\zeta(1-s)}{\zeta(s)}$ [closed]

Wikipedia (here) says that $\frac{\zeta(s-1)}{\zeta(s)}= \sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{\varphi(n)}{n^{s}}$ where $\varphi(n)$ is the totient function. Similarly, is there a known expression involving a ...

Turán proof that constant sign of Liouville function implies RH

In Mat.-Fys. Medd. XXIV (1948) Paul Turán gives what he says is a proof of the statement that if the summatory $L(x) = \sum_{n\leq x} \lambda(n)$ of the Liouville function $\lambda(n) = (-1)^{\Omega(n)...

Show the function for which the Dirichlet generating series is $\zeta(2s)$ using only $\tau,\varphi,\sigma\text{ and }\mu$ or some explicit formula.

I'm trying to find the function with Dirichlet generating series $\zeta(2s)$, I know that this relates somehow to the Liouville function but I am trying to express it in terms of only the standard ...

How to interpret a strange formula about $\zeta'(s)/\zeta(s)$

I obtained a strange formula about $\zeta'(s)/\zeta(s)$ $$ \begin{split} \frac{\zeta'(s)}{\zeta(s)}-(2\pi)^s&\sum_{\Im(\rho)>0} (-i\rho)^{-s}(2\pi)^{-\rho} e^{-i\pi \rho / 2} \Gamma(\rho)\;\;\...

Why are these numbers close to $-\log(2)+\text{integer}\,i\pi$?

The following function $f(n)$ has been derived from the Dirichlet eta function: $$f(n)=\log \left(\sum _{k=1}^n (-1)^{k+1} x^{c \log (k)}\right)-c \log (n) \log (x) \tag{$\ast$}$$ Let: $$s=\rho _1$$ ...
