Eisenstein series and the distribution of Dedekind sums (Q1109066): Difference between revisions

The meromorphic continuation in two parameters of the Eisenstein series from the author's paper [Math. Z. 192, 297-328 (1986; Zbl 0569.10011)] is used to get results on the distribution of the Dedekind sums S(d,c): For each continuous function f on \([-1,1]\times ({\mathbb{R}}/{\mathbb{Z}})\) \[ \lim_{N\to \infty}(1/N) \sum^{N}_{c=1}(1/c) \sum_{d\;mod\;c,(d,c)=1} f(S(d,c)/c,d/c)= (6/\pi^ 2) \int^{1}_{0} f(0,t) dt \] and \[ \lim_{N\to \infty}(1/N)\sum^{N}_{c=1} \sum_{d\;mod\;c,(d,c)=1} (S(d,c)/c)^ 2 f(S(d,c)/c,d/c)= \] \[ \sum^{\infty}_{n=1} \sum_{d| n} \beta(n/d)(1/d) \sum_{m\;mod\;d}(1/12n)^ 2\{f(1/12n, m/d)+ f(-1/12n, m/d)\} \] with \(\beta(k)\) defined by \(\sum^{\infty}_{k=1} \beta(k)k^{-s}= \zeta(s) \zeta(s+1)^{-2}\) for Re \(s>1\).
