Question

what is Riemann zeta function?

Answer 1

Riemann zeta function, function useful in number theory for investigating properties of prime numbers. Written as ζ(x), it was originally defined as the infinite series ζ(x) = 1 + 2−x + 3−x + 4−x + ⋯. When x = 1, this series is called the harmonic series, which increases without bound—i.e., its sum is infinite.
