Discussion Overview
The discussion centers around the infinite product representation of Riemann's Xi function, specifically exploring its relationship with the Gamma function and the Riemann zeta function. Participants are examining the mathematical formulation and manipulation of these functions.
Discussion Character
Main Points Raised
- One participant asks about the infinite product for the function \Xi(s)=\Gamma\left(\frac{s}{2}\right)\pi^{-s/2}\zeta(s).
- Another participant suggests manipulating Hadamard's zeta function infinite product to derive the answer.
- A third participant provides a formula involving the product over complex zeros of the zeta function, expressed as {\prod_n (1-s/s_n)\over s(s-1)}.
- A later reply expresses gratitude towards the participant who provided the formula.
Areas of Agreement / Disagreement
The discussion does not appear to reach a consensus, as participants are presenting different approaches and formulations without resolving the question of the infinite product.
Contextual Notes
Limitations include the dependence on the definitions of the functions involved and the unresolved nature of the infinite product representation.
