Cesaro summation of a particular Dirichlet series associated with $\zeta(s)$
If you've investigated the error in Perron's formula in general, you've probably noticed that Cesaro summation $$\lim_{x\rightarrow\infty}\sum_{n\leq x} \left(1-\frac{\log n}{\log x}\right)\frac{a_n}{...

Approximating $\zeta'/\zeta$ (and its derivatives) by a finite sum
Let $A(s) = (-\zeta'/\zeta)^{(r)}(s) = \sum_n a_n n^{-s}$, where $r\geq 0$. (We can consider $r=0$ first for simplicity.) Say I want to approximate $A(s)$ for $s=1+it$ by a finite sum - preferably a ...

Mean value theorem for Dirichlet series of prime support?
Let $\{a_n\}_{1\leq n\geq N}$, $a_n\in \mathbb{C}$. Let $F(s) = \sum_{n=1}^N a_n n^{-s}$. By a mean-value theorem (Montgomery-Vaughan, 1973),

If the Dirichlet series $L(z,\chi)$ diverges for $\sigma< 1$, does its alternating version converge for some $\sigma_0 < 1$, and conversely?
Here $\chi$ is a completely multiplicative function with $\chi(p)\in\{-1,+1\}$ for any prime $p$, but not necessarily a character. Also $s=\sigma + it$ as usual. The series corresponding to $L(s,\chi)$...

Given an arbitrary prime $\,q\,$ is it true that
$$\prod_{q\,|\,p+1}\,(1-p^{-1})=0\;\;\;?$$
