On integral relating logarithm of absolute value of Zeta function
Sorry for such a direct question:
Consider the following integral:
$$I(t)=\int_{1/2}^{1} {\log|\zeta(a+it)|}da.$$
How to find the nature of $I(t)$ as $t\rightarrow\infty$?

Residue calculation for Eulerian expansion of the cotangent
I am looking for ideas on proving the Eulerian expansion of the cotangent using residue calculation: $$\pi\cot(\pi z)=\frac{1}{z}+\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\left(\frac{1}{z+n}+\frac{1}{z-n}\right), \ z\in\...

Reference request for literature on the following function--power counting zeta function
I'll start by writing the character of interest, and describing some properties of it, before I get to the meat of the question. Any help is greatly appreciated, even an offhand suggestion/comment/...

Converse theorem for zeta universality
Voronin's Universality Theorem for $\zeta(s)$ is that the zeta function can uniformly approximate any non-vanishing holomorphic function to any degree of accuracy in the right-half of the critical ...

Characterization of turning points for the Ramanujan's zeta function in the spirit of a definition by Arias de Reyna and van de Lune
In [1] the authors provided a definition and characterization of turning points for the Riemann's zeta function. In this post I denote the Ramanujan's zeta function as $$\varphi(s)=\sum_{n=1}^\infty\...

Why does the Gamma-function complete the Riemann Zeta function?
Defining $$\xi(s) := \pi^{-s/2}\ \Gamma\left(\frac{s}{2}\right)\ \zeta(s)$$ yields $\xi(s) = \xi(1 - s)$ (where $\zeta$ is the Riemann Zeta function).
Is there any conceptual explanation - or ...

non-trivial zeros of partial zeta functions
Let $N,a\in\mathbf{Z}_{\geq 1}$. Define a partial $\zeta$-function as
$$
\zeta(s;N,a):=\sum_{\substack{n\geq 1\newline n\equiv a\pmod{N}}} \frac{1}{n^s}
$$
where $Re(s)>1$. Let $\omega$ be either ...

Relation between infinite product and regularized product
For a positive sequence $0\le\lambda_{1}\le\lambda_{2}\le\cdots$, consider an infinite product
\begin{equation*}
\prod_{i=1}^{\infty}\lambda_{i}:=\lim_{n\rightarrow\infty}\prod_{i=1}^{n}\lambda_{i}...

On meromorphic continuation of zeta function(s) and special values at negative integers
Euler developped (at least) two different approaches in order to calculate the values $\zeta(-m)$ of the zeta function $$\zeta(s) = \sum_{n\geq 1} \frac{1}{n^s}$$ at non-positive integers.
In one ...

Why does the Riemann zeta function have non-trivial zeros?
This is a very basic question of course, and exposes my serious ignorance of analytic number theory, but what I am looking for is a good intuitive explanation rather than a formal proof (though a ...

Analytic extension of the Hurwitz ζ function
For the purpose of formalisation in a theorem prover, I am looking for a simple definition of the analytic extension of the Hurwitz ζ function $\zeta(s,q)$ valid for all $s\in\mathbb{C}\setminus\{1\}$ ...

Evaluating the integral $\int_0^\infty \frac{\psi(x)-x}{x^2}dx.$
Let $\psi(x)=\sum_{n\leq x} \Lambda(n)$ be the weighted prime counting function. I am trying to evaluate the integral $$\kappa:=\int_{1}^{\infty}\frac{\psi(x)-x}{x^{2}}dx$$ in several different ways. ...

Is the maximum domain to which a Dirichlet series can be continued always a halfplane?
Let $f(s)=\sum_n a_n n^{-s}$ be a Dirichlet series whose coefficients satisfy $\lvert a_n\rvert\leq n^{C}$. Then $f(s)$ converges absolutely in some halfplanes, and is conditionally convergent in (...
