Definition of the Riemann zeta function #
Main definitions: #
riemannZeta: the Riemann zeta functionζ : ℂ → ℂ.riemannCompletedZeta: the completed zeta functionΛ : ℂ → ℂ, which satisfiesΛ(s) = π ^ (-s / 2) Γ(s / 2) ζ(s)(away from the poles ofΓ(s / 2)).riemannCompletedZeta₀: the entire functionΛ₀satisfyingΛ₀(s) = Λ(s) + 1 / (s - 1) - 1 / swherever the RHS is defined.
Note that mathematically ζ(s) is undefined at s = 1, while Λ(s) is undefined at both s = 0
and s = 1. Our construction assigns some values at these points (which are not arbitrary, but
I haven't checked exactly what they are).

Outline of proofs: #
We define two related functions on the reals, zetaKernel₁ and zetaKernel₂. The first is
(θ (t * I) - 1) / 2, where θ is Jacobi's theta function; its Mellin transform is exactly the
completed zeta function. The second is obtained by subtracting a linear combination of powers on
the interval Ioc 0 1 to give a function with exponential decay at both 0 and ∞. We then define
riemannCompletedZeta₀ as the Mellin transform of the second zeta kernel, and define
riemannCompletedZeta and riemannZeta from this.
Since zetaKernel₂ has rapid decay and satisfies a functional equation relating its values at t
and 1 / t, we deduce the analyticity of riemannCompletedZeta₀ and the functional equation
relating its values at s and 1 - s. On the other hand, since zetaKernel₁ can be expanded in
powers of exp (-π * t) and the Mellin transform integrated term-by-term, we obtain the relation
to the naive Dirichlet series ∑' (n : ℕ), 1 / (n + 1) ^ s.

First properties of the zeta kernels #
Relate zetaKernel₁ to the Jacobi theta function on ℍ. (We don't use this as the definition
of zetaKernel₁, since the sum over ℕ rather than ℤ is more convenient for relating zeta to
the Dirichlet series for re s > 1.)
Continuity of zetaKernel₁.
Local integrability of zetaKernel₁.
Local integrability of zetaKernel₂.
Functional equation for zetaKernel₂.
## Bounds for zeta kernels
We now establish asymptotic bounds for the zeta kernels as t → ∞ and t → 0, and use these to
show holomorphy of their Mellin transforms (for 1 / 2 < re s for zetaKernel₁, and all s for
zetaKernel₂).
Bound for zetaKernel₁ for large t.
Bound for zetaKernel₂ for large t.
Precise but awkward-to-use bound for zetaKernel₂ for t → 0.
Weaker but more usable bound for zetaKernel₂ for t → 0.
Bound for zetaKernel₁ for t → 0.
Differentiability of the completed zeta function #
The Mellin transform of the first zeta kernel is holomorphic for 1 / 2 < re s.
The Mellin transform of the second zeta kernel is entire.
The modified completed Riemann zeta function Λ(s) + 1 / s - 1 / (s - 1) is entire.
The completed Riemann zeta function Λ(s) is differentiable away from s = 0 and s = 1
(where it has simple poles).
The Riemann zeta function is differentiable away from s = 1.
The trivial zeroes of the zeta function.
A formal statement of the Riemann hypothesis – constructing a term of this type is worth a million dollars.

Relating the Mellin transforms of the two zeta kernels #
## Relating the first zeta kernel to the Dirichlet series
Auxiliary lemma for mellin_zetaKernel₁_eq_tsum, computing the Mellin transform of an
individual term in the series.
The Riemann zeta function agrees with the naive Dirichlet-series definition when the latter
converges. (Note that this is false without the assumption: when re s ≤ 1 the sum is divergent,
and we use a different definition to obtain the analytic continuation to all s.)
Alternate formulation of zeta_eq_tsum_one_div_nat_add_one_cpow without the + 1, using the
fact that for s ≠ 0 we define 0 ^ s = 0.
Special case of zeta_eq_tsum_one_div_nat_cpow when the argument is in ℕ, so the power
function can be expressed using naïve pow rather than cpow.
Explicit formula for ζ (2 * k), for k ∈ ℕ with k ≠ 0: we have
ζ (2 * k) = (-1) ^ (k + 1) * 2 ^ (2 * k - 1) * π ^ (2 * k) * bernoulli (2 * k) / (2 * k)!.
Compare hasSum_zeta_nat for a version formulated explicitly as a sum, and
riemannZeta_neg_nat_eq_bernoulli for values at negative integers (equivalent to the above via
the functional equation).
