Identity of Zeta function

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the relationship between the sum of the density of states for physicists and the Riemann zeta function, specifically the expression involving its derivatives at the critical line. The formula presented is \frac{ \zeta '(1/2+is)}{\zeta (1/2+is)}+\frac{ \zeta '(1/2-is)}{\zeta (1/2-is)}, which connects the imaginary parts of the non-trivial zeros of the zeta function, denoted as 'gamma'. Participants express concerns about the clarity of the problem definition, highlighting the distinction between functionals and functions.

it is true in general that the sum (density of states for a physicst)

\sum_{n=0}^{\infty} \delta (x- \gamma _{n})

is related to the value \frac{ \zeta '(1/2+is)}{\zeta (1/2+is)}+\frac{ \zeta '(1/2-is)}{\zeta (1/2-is)}

here the 'gamma' are the imaginary parts of the non-trivial zeros of Riemann zeta function

Hi,
I think the problem is not well-defined, the first part is a functional and the second a function. Please, be more especific. But I guess there is some relation like this.
