Dirichlet series expansion of an analytic function

Let $F(s)=\sum_{n\geq 1}\frac{a_n}{n^s}$ be a Dirichlet series with (finite) abscissa of absolute convergence $\sigma_a$. It can be shown that $\forall \sigma >\sigma_a:$ $$\lim_{T\to\infty}\frac{1}...

Convergence of L-series

I remember to have read that the L-function of an elliptic curve, which a priori only converges for $\Re s > \frac{3}{2}$ also converges at $s=1$ provided that the $L$-function satisfies the ...

Mean value theorem for Dirichlet series - optimize?

Let $a_n\in \mathbb{C}$. We can prove a mean value theorem, meaning an inequality $$\int_0^T \left|\sum_{n=1}^\infty a_n n^{-i t}\right|^2 dt \leq \sum_{n=1}^\infty (c_0 T + c_1 n + c_2) |a_n|^2.$$ ...

Tauberian theorem $\sum_{k=1}^{\infty}e^{-\lambda_{k}t}c_{k} \xrightarrow{t\to 0} \sum_{k=1}^{\infty}c_{k} $

I am trying to prove or disprove $$\sum_{k=1}^{\infty}e^{-\lambda_{k}t}c_{k} \xrightarrow{t\to 0} \sum_{k=1}^{\infty}c_{k} ,$$ where $\sum c_{k}<\infty, \sum c_{k}^{2}<\infty\text{ and }\frac{\...

Error term when truncating series for $1/\zeta(s)$

Let $s=\sigma+it$, $0\leq \sigma\leq 1$, $|t|\geq 1$, say. Using Euler-Maclaurin, one can easily show that, for $x\geq |t|$, $$\zeta(s) = \sum_{n\leq x} \frac{1}{n^s} + \frac{x^{1-s}}{s-1} + O\left(\...

Divergence of Dirichlet series

Suppose $s$ is a complex number with $\Re(s) \in (0,1]$ and $\{a_n\}$ is a complex sequence converging to $a \neq 0$. Must the Dirichlet series $$\sum_{n=1}^\infty\frac{a_n}{n^s}$$ diverge? I asked ...

Dirichlet's theorem for number fields

I'd like to see a formulation of Dirichlet's theorem for number fields, i.e. some analogue of the assertion: The number of primes less than $N$ congruent to $a \pmod{m}$ where $(a,m)=1$ is $\frac{...

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), $$\int_0^T |F(i t)|^2 = \sum_{n=1}^N |a_n|^2 (T + O(n)).$$ ...

Does the Euler product for $L(s,\chi_4)$ also converge in the right half of the critical strip?

This question expands on this one from MSE. In the literature about Dirichlet $L$-series, I found that their Euler products: $$L(s, \chi) =\prod_p \bigg(\frac {1}{1-\frac{\chi(p)}{p^s}} \bigg)$$ ...

Can we extend the twisted Poisson Summation formula with functions having a singularity in zero?

The following "twisted" Poisson Summation formula for $\chi$ primitive of conductor $q$ : $$ \sum_{n\in\mathbb{Z}}\chi(n)f\left(\frac{nx}{\sqrt{q}}\right) = \frac{A}{x}\sum_{n\in\mathbb{Z}}\bar\chi(n)...

Special values of Hecke L-function

The Dedekind zeta function for a number field $K$ is defined as $\zeta_K(s)=\sum_{I\subset O_K} (N_{K/\mathbb{Q}}(I))^{-s}$. By attaching a Hecke character $\psi$, we can define $L(s,\psi)=\sum_{I\...

Continuation up to zero of a Dirichlet series with bounded coefficients

Let $a_n$ be a bounded sequence of positive real numbers. Is it the case that the Dirichlet series $\sum \frac{a_n}{n^s}$ can be meromorphically continued up to the right of zero, with at the most a ...

How to best approximate $1/\zeta(s)$ by a finite sum

I would like to approximate $1/\zeta(s)$ for $s=1+it$ by a finite sum: $$\frac{1}{\zeta(1+it)} = \sum_n \frac{\mu(n)}{n} \eta\left(\frac{n}{x}\right) + \epsilon(t)$$ with $\eta$ a function of compact ...

An analytic function, asymptotically expandable in a Dirichlet series, is the sum of this series

Let there be a function $F(s)$ that is analytic in some half-plane $\sigma>\sigma_0$ (where $s=\sigma + it $). Let the function $F(s)$ have an asymptotic expansion of the form $F(s)\sim\sum\limits_{...

On the convergence of Dirichlet series over the Mobius Mu function

It is known that if $\sum_{k=1}^{\infty} \frac{\mu(k)}{k^s} = \frac{1}{\zeta(s)}$ for $\Re(s) > 1/2$ then RH holds. My question is: Under RH why is it not $\sum_{k=1}^{\infty} \frac{\mu(k)}{k^s} = ...

On a certain integral representation for Dirichlet L-functions

It is an ancient result of Jensen that $$(s-1)\zeta(s)=\frac{\pi}{2} \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} \frac{(1/2+it)^{1-s}}{\cosh^{2}\pi t} \mathrm{d}t$$ where $\zeta$ denotes the Riemann zeta function. Is ...

Given a Dirichlet series $$\phi(s)=\sum_{n\ge1}\frac{a_n}{n^s}$$ let $\sigma_{\text{conv}}\in\bar{\mathbb{R}}$ its abscissa of convergence, then we know that $\phi(s)$ is holomorphic on the half-plan $...
