Hurwitz Zeta Function - Relation To Jacobi Theta Function

Relation To Jacobi Theta Function

If is the Jacobi theta function, then

\int_0^\infty \left t^{s/2} \frac{dt}{t}= \pi^{-(1-s)/2} \Gamma \left( \frac {1-s}{2} \right) \left

holds for and z complex, but not an integer. For z=n an integer, this simplifies to

\int_0^\infty \left t^{s/2} \frac{dt}{t}= 2\ \pi^{-(1-s)/2} \ \Gamma \left( \frac {1-s}{2} \right) \zeta(1-s) =2\ \pi^{-s/2} \ \Gamma \left( \frac {s}{2} \right) \zeta(s).

where ΞΆ here is the Riemann zeta function. Note that this latter form is the functional equation for the Riemann zeta function, as originally given by Riemann. The distinction based on z being an integer or not accounts for the fact that the Jacobi theta function converges to the Dirac delta function in z as .

Famous quotes containing the words relation to, relation, jacobi and/or function:

    “Whoever has a keen eye for profits, is blind in relation to his craft.”
    —Sophocles (497–406/5 B.C.)

    “Much poetry seems to be aware of its situation in time and of its relation to the metronome, the clock, and the calendar. ... The season or month is there to be felt; the day is there to be seized. Poems beginning “When” are much more numerous than those beginning “Where” of “If.” As the meter is running, the recurrent message tapped out by the passing of measured time is mortality.”
    —William Harmon (b. 1938)

    “... the most important effect of the suffrage is psychological. The permanent consciousness of power for effective action, the knowledge that their own thoughts have an equal chance with those of any other person ... this is what has always rendered the men of a free state so energetic, so acutely intelligent, so powerful.”
    —Mary Putnam Jacobi (1842–1906)

    “The function of muscle is to pull and not to push, except in the case of the genitals and the tongue.”
    —Leonardo Da Vinci (1425–1519)
