Approximate Riemann zeta function

Given the function $Z(s,N)= \sum \limits_{n=1}^{N}n^{-s}$. In the limit $N \to \infty$ the function $Z(s,N) \to \zeta (s)$ Riemann Zeta function. My question is: Is there a Functional equation for ...

Convergence of sum in proof that $\Phi(s) - \frac{1}{s-1}$ extends to $\Re(s) > \frac{1}{2}$

Definitions: $\Phi(s) = \displaystyle\sum_{p} \frac{\log p}{p^s}$ where $p$ denotes a prime number. $\zeta(s) = \displaystyle\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{1}{n^s}$ denotes the Riemann zeta function. I ...

How to simplify $\newcommand{\bigk}{\mathop{\vcenter{\hbox{K}}}}\prod_{p\in\mathbb{P}}\left(1+\bigk_{k=1}^{\infty }\frac{f_k(s)}{g_k(s)}\right)^{-1}$

I'd like to simplify $$\newcommand{\bigk}{\mathop{\huge\vcenter{\hbox{K}}}}B(s)=\prod_{p\in\mathbb{P}}\left(1+\bigk_{k=1}^{\infty }\frac{f_{k}(s)}{f_{k}(s)}\right)^{-1}$$ to something of the form $$...

An identity involving the Möbius function

$$\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{1}{n^s}\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{\mu(n)}{n^s}=1$$ for $s>1$. How do I prove this identity?

Reference request: $L$-series and $\zeta$-functions

Does anyone know a good book, lecture note, article etc. on $L$-series (Dirichlet, Hecke, Artin) and $\zeta$-functions in number theory? I'm especially interested in material explaining the following: ...

A question about an identity involving Dirichlet characters

Let $\chi$ be a Dirichlet character $\bmod q$. We have $$\sum_{n=0}^{\infty} (-1)^{n-1} \chi(n) n^{-s}=\prod_p \left(1-(-1)^{p-1}\frac{\chi(p)}{p^s}\right)^{-1}=(1+\chi(2)2^{-s})^{-1}\prod_{p>2}\left(...

Two Dirichlet's series related to the Divisor Summatory Function and to the Riemann's zeta-function, $\zeta(s)$

Considering the $\textit{Divisor Summatory Function}$, $D(n)$, defined as $$ D(n) = \sum_{k=1}^{n}d(k) , $$ where $$ d(n) = \sum_{k|n}^{n}1. $$ One can observe the following pattern in the values of $...

On Dirichlet series and critical strips

(I'll keep this one short) Given a Dirichlet series $$g(s)=\sum_{k=1}^\infty\frac{c_k}{k^s}$$ where $c_k\in\mathbb R$ and $c_k \neq 0$ (i.e., the coefficients are a sequence of arbitrary nonzero ...
