A generalization of the Riemann-Siegel formula

From MaRDI portal
Publication:2108040





As the author summarizes, the Riemann-Siegel formula compares the Riemann zeta function on the critical line with its partial sums, expressing the difference between them as an expansion in terms of decreasing powers of the imaginary variable \(t\). Siegel anticipated that this formula could be generalized to include the Hardy-Littlewood approximate functional equation, which is valid in any vertical strip. In the paper, the author provides such generalization, the asymptotics containing Mordell integrals and an interesting new family of polynomials. To reach this result, the author proceeds by showing that the Riemann-Siegel formula and the Hardy-Littlewood approximate functional equation are indeed special cases of a shared natural generalization, provided in Theorem 1.5 of the paper. To finish, the author proposes, as a follow up, to develop in a natural extension of the techniques in his paper is to Dirichlet \(L\)-functions, \(L(s,\chi)\).
