释义

value of the Riemann zeta function at s=2


Here we present an application of Parseval’s equality to numbertheoryMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmath. Let ζ(s) denote the Riemann zeta functionDlmfDlmfMathworldPlanetmath. We willcompute the value

ζ(2)

with the help of Fourier analysis.

Example:

Let f: be the “identity” functionMathworldPlanetmath,defined by

f(x)=x, for all x.

The Fourier seriesMathworldPlanetmath of this function has been computed in the entryexample of Fourier series.

Thus

f(x)=x=a0f+n=1(anfcos(nx)+bnfsin(nx))
=n=1(-1)n+12nsin(nx),x(-π,π).

Parseval’s theorem asserts that:

1π-ππf2(x)𝑑x=2(a0f)2+k=1[(akf)2+(bkf)2].

So we apply this to the function f(x)=x:

2(a0f)2+k=1[(akf)2+(bkf)2]=n=14n2=4n=11n2

and

1π-ππf2(x)𝑑x=1π-ππx2𝑑x=2π23.

Hence by Parseval’s equality

4n=11n2=2π23

and hence

ζ(2)=n=11n2=π26.
