Continuing an analytic continuation of the Dirichlet $\eta$-function?
The Dirichlet $\eta$-function is defined as:
$$\eta(s) = \sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{(-1)^{n+1}}{n^s} \qquad \Re(s) > 0$$
and has the full analytical continuation:
$$\eta(s) = \sum_{n=1}^N \frac{(-1)^{...

Continuation of $\sum \sigma_\nu(n) a(n) n^{-s}$ for $a(\cdot)$ coming from a half-integral weight form
In some of my work, I've run into a wall trying to understand whether a Dirichlet series has a meromorphic continuation or not. Let $f(z) = \sum_{n \geq 1} a(n) e(nz)$ be a half-integral weight ...

Question regarding proof of Mertens' estimates in Montgomery-Vaughan's "Multiplicative number theory"
I have been trying to read Theorem 2.7 of Montgomery-Vaughan's "Multiplicative number theory" volume 1, and there is an issue I have run into: in the proof of subpart (e), when they write

Analytic continuation of "composite" zeta function
Let us define the Dirichlet series $$\mathcal C(s):=\sum_{n\text{ composite}}\frac{1}{n^s},\quad P(s):=\sum_{p\text{ prime}}\frac{1}{p^s}.$$
They are absolutely convergent in the half-plane $\sigma>...
