Mellin-Perron inverse transform.

In summary, the conversation discusses using the Laurent series for the Riemann zeta function and the Mellin-Perron inverse formula to find a Laurent series for the Mertens function. The goal is to find an asymptotic formula for the Mertens function for large values of t. The suggested resource for further information is a PDF on number theory, specifically chapter 12 starting on page 69.

Don't know if this can be done but taking the Luarent series for the Riemann zeta function converging for every s but Re (s) =1 we have:

[tex] \zeta (s) = \sum_{n=-\infty}^{\infty}\gamma _{n} (s-a)^{n} [/tex] (1)

Then the Mellin-Perron inverse formula for Mertens function:

[tex] M(exp(t))2\pi i = \int_{C}ds \frac{x^{s}}{s\zeta (s)} [/tex] (2)

From expression (1) we could use it to find a Laurent series for [tex] 1/\zeta (s) [/tex] to put it into (2) hence we find tor Mertens function:

[tex] M(e^{t})= \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\frac{a(n)t^{n}}{n!} [/tex] (3)

my problem is , assuming (3) is true then i would like to find an asymptotic formula for big t for M(exp(t)) thanx.

FAQ: Mellin-Perron inverse transform.

What is the Mellin-Perron inverse transform?

The Mellin-Perron inverse transform is a mathematical operation that involves transforming a function from the complex domain to the real domain. It is the inverse of the Mellin transform, which is a special type of integral transform used in mathematical analysis.

How does the Mellin-Perron inverse transform work?

The Mellin-Perron inverse transform takes a function in the complex domain and integrates it over a specific contour in the complex plane. This contour must pass through the poles of the function in order for the inverse transform to be well-defined.

What is the significance of the Mellin-Perron inverse transform?

The Mellin-Perron inverse transform is often used in number theory and analytic number theory to study the distribution of prime numbers. It has also been applied in other areas of mathematics, such as the study of special functions and asymptotic analysis.

What are some properties of the Mellin-Perron inverse transform?

Some key properties of the Mellin-Perron inverse transform include linearity, shift invariance, and convolution. It also has a relationship with the Laplace transform and the Fourier transform, making it a useful tool in a variety of mathematical contexts.

What are some applications of the Mellin-Perron inverse transform?

The Mellin-Perron inverse transform has many applications in mathematics, including in the study of prime number distributions, special functions, and asymptotic analysis. It is also used in physics, particularly in the study of quantum field theory and string theory.
