Superzeta Functions: an Overview

A complex valued function defined and analytic in the entire complex plane is called an entire function or an integral function. In other words, in the extended complex plane, it can have a singularity only at infinity. If f is an entire function different from a polynomial and M(r, f) [or M(r) when there is no confusion] denotes the maximum of |f(z)| on the circle |z| = r, it follows from Liou-ville’s theorem that M(r, f) increases more rapidly than any power of r. Thus, to study the growth of the function we have to compare with exponentials.

In this section, we obtain theorems on the approximation of functions of the complex variable dened on closed contours bounding a simply connected domain in the complex plane; the approximations are constructed in the space of continuous functions and in Lebesgue spaces with the use of Lozinskii interpolation polynomials. These results are used to obtain a theoretical justication of the subdomain method for the approximate solution of singular integral equations dened on closed contours of various smoothness. The solvability of the computational scheme of this method is proved by the technique in [1]. Note that issues related to the approximate solution of singular integral equations have been considered in numerous papers (see [2{10] and the bibliography therein). However, the subdomain method for singular integral equations on closed contours other than the unit circle has not been studied. Let be a closed smooth contour bounding a connected domain F + containing the origin, and let F = CnfF + [ g ,w hereC is the entire complex plane. We say that belongs to the class (m) ,w herem is a positive integer, if the Riemann function t = (w), w2 0 =f : jj =1 g, (1 )= 1, 0 (1 )= a1 (a1 > 0), of this contour has continuous :

This paper presents the realization of complex impedance standard, which achieve the calibration of digital bridge on entire complex plane through generating voltage and current waveform. The proposed standard can simulate any modulus and angle of complex impedance, which is focused on some technologies, such as digital waveform synthesis, all digital phase locked loop, DDS. Based on the concept of complex impedance and the calibration object, this paper achieves the design and realization of complex impedance standard. The measurement data at 1kHz is provided in the end, which can establish the foundation for calibration.

The celebrated Liouville theorem in complex analysis which asserts that any bounded holomorphic function on the entire complex plane has to be constant, has been extended to various areas of analysis.

A general definition of ``cosine'' and ``sine'' operators, C and S, for harmonic oscillator phase is proposed and its consequences examined. An important feature of the spectral analysis is the ``chain sequence'' condition which ensures that C and S have unit norm. The (nonunitary) operator U = C + iS is shown to be an annihilation-type operator whose spectral properties bear a remarkable analogy to those of the standard annihilation operator, although its spectrum fills the unit circle rather than the entire complex plane. Statistical properties of the eigenstates of U are discussed briefly.

In this paper we describe some of the dynamical behavior of the complex exponential λ exp z. For various values of λ, this family exhibits chaotic behavior on the entire complex plane. For other values, the dynamics are relatively tame. We show how to analyze this behavior via symbolic dynamics and investigate the structural instability at various parameter values. Finally, we describe the relationship between the parameter space for the exponential family and the related families of polynomials given by [Formula: see text].

We identify, through a change of variables, solution operators for evolution equations with generators given by certain simple first-order differential operators acting on Fock spaces. This analysis applies, through unitary equivalence, to a broad class of supersymmetric quadratic multiplication-differentiation operators acting on L^2 (\mathbb R^n) which includes the elliptic and weakly elliptic quadratic operators. We demonstrate a variety of sharp results on boundedness, decay, and return to equilibrium for these solution operators, connecting the short-time behaviorwith the range of the symbol and the long-time behavior with the eigenvalues of their generators. This is particularly striking when it allows for the definition of solution operators which are compact and regularizing for large times for certain operators whose spectrum is the entire complex plane.

The independent set polynomial of a graph has one variable for each vertex and one monomial for each independent set, comprising the product of the corresponding variables. Given a graph G on n vertices and a vector p ∈ [0,1)ⁿ, a central problem in statistical mechanics is determining whether the independent set polynomial of G is non-vanishing in the polydisk of p, i.e., whether |Z_G(x)| > 0 for every x ∈ ℂⁿ such that |x_i| ≤ p_i. Remarkably, when this holds, Z_G(-p) is a lower bound for the avoidance probability when G is a dependency graph for n events whose probabilities form vector p. A local sufficient condition for |Z_G| > 0 in the polydisk of p is the Lovász Local Lemma (LLL). 
\nIn this work we derive several new results on the efficient evaluation and bounding of Z_G. Our starting point is a monotone mapping from subgraphs of G to truncations of the tree of self-avoiding walks of G. Using this mapping our first result is a local upper bound for Z(-p), similar in spirit to the local lower bound for Z(-p) provided by the LLL. Next, using this mapping, we show that when G is chordal, Z_G can be computed exactly and in linear time on the entire complex plane, implying perfect sampling for the hard-core model on chordal graphs. We also revisit the task of bounding Z(-p) from below, i.e., the LLL setting, and derive four new lower bounds of increasing sophistication. Already our simplest (and weakest) bound yields a strict improvement of the famous asymmetric LLL, i.e., a strict relaxation of the inequalities of the asymmetric LLL without any further assumptions. This new asymmetric local lemma is sharp enough to recover Shearer’s optimal bound in terms of the maximum degree Δ(G). We also apply our more sophisticated bounds to estimate the zero-free region of the hard-core model on the triangular lattice (hard hexagons model).

It is shown that the integral equation \[ \int_0^\infty {f(t)} \frac{{\sin (x - t)}} {{\pi (x - t)}}dt = \lambda f(x)\quad (x > 0)\] has a solution f for any (complex) $\lambda $, excluding the real numbers $\lambda \leq 0$, $\lambda > 1$. The closure of the set of eigenvalues, i.e., the spectrum of the integral operator (over all functions in its domain) is then the entire complex plane.

This article explores an elliptic system of n equations where the main part is the Bitsadze operator (the square of the Cauchy–Riemann operator) and the lower term is the product of a given matrix function by the conjugate of the desired vector function. The system was analyzed in the Banach space of vector functions that are bounded and uniformly H¨older continuous in the entire complex plane. It was revealed that the problem of solving the system in the specified space may not be Noetherian. An example of a homogeneous system with an infinite number of linearly independent solutions was given. As is known, for many classes of elliptic systems, the Noetherianity of boundary value problems in a compact domain is equivalent to the presence of a priori estimates in the corresponding spaces. In this regard, it is important to study the issues related to the establishment of a priori estimates for the system under consideration in the above space. In the case of coefficients weakly oscillating at infinity, necessary and sufficient conditions for the validity of the a priori estimate were found. These conditions were written out in the language of the spectrum of limit matrices formed by the partial limits of the coefficient matrix at infinity. Specific examples were provided to illustrate how the limit matrices are constructed and what the above conditions look like.

We show that, under certain additional assumptions, analytic solutions of sufficiently general nonlinear functional differential equations are representable by Dirichlet series of unique structure on the entire real axis ℝ and, in some cases, on the entire complex plane ℂ. We investigate the dependence of these solutions on the coefficients of the basic exponents of the expansion into a Dirichlet series. We obtain sufficient conditions for the representability of solutions of the main initial-value problem by series of exponents.

The familiar Fermi-Dirac and Bose-Einstein functions are of importance not only for their role in quantum statistics, but also for their several interesting mathematical properties in themselves. Here, in our present investigation, we have extended these functions by introducing an extra parameter in a way that gives new insights into these functions and their relationship to the family of zeta functions. These extensions are dual to each other in a sense that is explained in this paper. Some identities are proved here for each of these general functions and their relationship with the general Hurwitz-Lerch zeta function Φ(z, s, a) is exploited to derive some other (presumably new) identities.

In certain problems in model building and Bayesian analysis, the results end up in forms connected with generalized zeta functions. This necessitates the introduction of an extended form of the generalized zeta function. Such an extended form of the zeta function is introduced in this paper. In model building situations and in various types of applications in physical, biological and social sciences and engineering, a basic model taken is the Gaussian model in the univariate, multivariate and matrix-variate situations. A real scalar variable logistic model behaves like a Gaussian model but with a thicker tail. Hence, for many of industrial applications, a logistic model is preferred to a Gaussian model. When we study the properties of a logistic model in the multivariate and matrix-variate cases, in the real and complex domains, invariably the problem ends up in the extended zeta function defined in this paper. Several such extended logistic models are considered. It is also found that certain Bayesian considerations also end up in the extended zeta function introduced in this paper. Several such Bayesian models in the multivariate and matrix-variate cases in the real and complex domains are discussed. It is stated in a recent paper that “Quantum Mechanics is just the Bayesian theory generalized to the complex Hilbert space”. Hence, the models developed in this paper are expected to have applications in quantum mechanics, communication theory, physics, statistics and related areas.

We generalize the Ihara-Selberg zeta function to hypergraphs in a natural way. Hashimoto's factorization results for biregular bipartite graphs apply, leading to exact factorizations. For $(d,r)$-regular hypergraphs, we show that a modified Riemann hypothesis is true if and only if the hypergraph is Ramanujan in the sense of Winnie Li and Patrick Solé. Finally, we give an example to show how the generalized zeta function can be applied to graphs to distinguish non-isomorphic graphs with the same Ihara-Selberg zeta function.

Five basic mistakes are found in the Riemann’s original paper proposed in 1859. The Riemann hypothesis becomes meaningless. 1. It is proved that on the real axis of complex plane and in the domain of the function, when the left-hand side of equation is finite, the right-hand side may be infinite, and vice versa. The Riemann Zeta function equation holds only at the point Re(s) = 1/2(s= a+ \(i b\)) . However, at this point, the Zeta function is infinite, rather than zero, to make Riemann hypothesis untenable. 2. An integral item around the original point of coordinate system was ignored when Riemann deduced the integral form of Zeta function. The item was convergent when Re(s) > 1but divergent when Re(s) < 1 .The integral form of Zeta function does not change the divergence of its series form. 3. A summation formula was used in the deduction of the integral form of Zeta function. The applicative condition of this formula is x > 0 . At point x = 0 , the formula is meaningless. However, the lower limit of Zeta function’s integral is x = 0 , so the formula can not be used. 4. Because the integral lower limit of Zeta function is zero, the integrand function is not uniformly convergent, so integral sign and sum sign can not be exchanged. But Riemann made them interchangeable, resulting in that the integral form of Zeta function is untenable. 5.The formula \(\theta(x)=\sqrt{x} \theta(1 / x)\) of Jacobi function was used to prove the symmetry of Zeta function equation. The applicable condition of this formula is also x > 0 . Because the lower limit of integral in the deduction was x = 0 , this formula can not be used too. The zero calculation of Riemann Zeta function is discussed at last. It is pointed out that because approximate methods are used, the analytic property of the original function is destroyed and the Cauchy-Riemann equation can not be satisfied. So they are not the real zeros of strict Riemann Zeta function.
