9 hours ago | comment | added | Mark Wildon | From Dedekind's functional equation for $P(e^{-2\pi s})$ namely $$ \log P(e^{-2\pi s}) - \log P(e^{-2\pi / s}) = \frac{\pi}{12}\left(\frac{1}{s}-s \right) + \frac{1}{2} \log s $$ we get $$\log P(e^{-t}) = \frac{\pi^2}{6t} - \frac{t}{24} + \frac{1}{2} \log t - \frac{1}{2} \log 2\pi + \log P(e^{-4\pi^2/t}). $$ The final term is $O(t^\infty)$. So the minus sign attached to $t/24$ by de Bruijn is correct. The functional equation is equivalent to the modularity of the Dedekind eta function so easily available in the literature. A comment since it's not a direct proof of de Bruijn. | |
