$ f(s) = 1 + \sum_{n=2}^{\infty} \frac{n^{-s}}{p_n}= 0$?
Let $p_n$ be the $n$ th prime number.
Let $f(s)$ be a Dirichlet series defined on the complex plane as :
$$f(s) = 1 + \sum_{n=2}^{\infty} \frac{n^{-s}}{p_n}= 1 + \frac{2^{-s}}{2}+ \frac{3^{-s}}{3} + \...

$ 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, ...

Asymptotics for the number of $n\le x$ which can be written as the sum of two squares. Is Perron's formula applicable?
For all $n\ge 1$, let
$$
a_n = \begin{cases}
1\quad&\text{if $n$ can be written as the sum of two squares;}\\
0&\text{otherwise}
\end{cases}
$$
I am interested in $A(x):=\sum_{n\le x}a_n$.

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 ...

Dirichlet series with infinitely many zeros
Can a Dirichlet series have infinitely many zeros and be nonzero?
To be precise, by a Dirichlet series I mean a function of the form $s\mapsto \sum_{n\geq 1}\frac{a_n}{n^s}$ where the domain is the ...

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}...

Can we extend the Divisor Function $\sigma_s$ to $\mathbb{Q}$ by extending Ramanujan Sums $c_n$ to $\mathbb{Q}$?
It can be shown that the divisor function $\sigma_s(k)=\sum_{d\vert k} d^s$ defined for $k\in\mathbb{Z}^+$ can be expressed as a Dirichlet series with the Ramanujan sums $c_n(k):=\sum\limits_{m\in(\...

How to construct a Dirichlet series that cannot be analytically continued beyond its abscissa of absolute convergence?
If I want a power series $\sum_n a_n \, z^n$ that cannot be analytically continued anywhere beyond its disk of convergence $|z| < R$, then I can use a lacunary series, e.g., $\sum_n z^{2^n}$.
Are ...

Asymptotic order of the square of the modulus of the second derivative of the Dirichlet kernel in zero
Consider the Dirichlet kernel $D_N(x)=\sum_{|k|\le N} e^{ikx}$. Its second derivative reads as $$D_N^{\prime\prime}(x) = -\sum_{|k|\le N} e^{ikx}k^2.$$
What is the asymptotic order of $|D_N^{\prime\...
