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:

    There is the falsely mystical view of art that assumes a kind of supernatural inspiration, a possession by universal forces unrelated to questions of power and privilege or the artist’s relation to bread and blood. In this view, the channel of art can only become clogged and misdirected by the artist’s concern with merely temporary and local disturbances. The song is higher than the struggle.
    Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)

    You know there are no secrets in America. It’s quite different in England, where people think of a secret as a shared relation between two people.
    —W.H. (Wystan Hugh)

    During the long ages of class rule, which are just beginning to cease, only one form of sovereignty has been assigned to all men—that, namely, over all women. Upon these feeble and inferior companions all men were permitted to avenge the indignities they suffered from so many men to whom they were forced to submit.
    —Mary Putnam Jacobi (1842–1906)

    Science has fulfilled her function when she has ascertained and enunciated truth.
    Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)
