      A function \(f\) that is holomorphic on the open unit disk \(\mathbb{D}=\{z\in\mathbb{C};\;| z|<1\}\) is universal if for every compact set \(K\subset\mathbb{C}\setminus \mathbb{D}\) with connected complement and for every function \(g\) continuous on \(K\) and holomorphic in the interior \(K^{\circ}\) of \(K,\) there exists a strictly increasing sequence \((\lambda_n)\) of natural numbers such that \(\displaystyle\lim_{n\rightarrow +\infty} \sup_{z\in K}| S_{\lambda_n}(f)(z)-g(z)|=0,\) where \(S_N(f)\) denotes the \(N\)th-partial sum of the Taylor development of \(f\) at the point \(0.\) So the corresponding power series \(\sum_{n=0}^{+\infty}\frac{f^{(n)}(0)}{n!}z^n\) is said to be a universal Taylor series. It is well known that such universal functions exist [\textit{V. Nestoridis}, Ann. Inst. Fourier 46, 1293--1306 (1996; Zbl 0865.30001)]. However we do not know explicit universal Taylor series. In the paper under review, the author uses the Riemann zeta-function to generate the coefficients of specific universal Taylor series. Let \(1/2<\sigma<1\) be a real number. In particular he shows that there is a sequence \((m_n)\) of integers such that the power series \(\sum_{n=0}^{+\infty} \zeta(\sigma+im_n)z^n\) is a universal Taylor series. To do this, the author combines a universality theorem by \textit{S. M. Voronin} [Proc. Steklov Inst. Math. 128, 153--175 (1972; Zbl 0294.10026)] with polynomial approximation lemmas.
