Dirichlet algebra

In mathematics, a Dirichlet algebra is a particular type of algebra associated to a compact Hausdorff space X. It is a closed subalgebra of C(X), the uniform algebra of bounded continuous functions on X, whose real parts are dense in the algebra of bounded continuous real functions on X. The concept was introduced by Andrew Gleason. (Wikipedia).

Dirichlet Eta Function - Integral Representation

Today, we use an integral to derive one of the integral representations for the Dirichlet eta function. This representation is very similar to the Riemann zeta function, which explains why their respective infinite series definition is quite similar (with the eta function being an alte rna

Theory of numbers: Dirichlet series

This lecture is part of an online undergraduate course on the theory of numbers. We describe the correspondence between Dirichlet series and arithmetic functions, and work out the Dirichlet series of the arithmetic functions in the previous lecture. Correction: Dave Neary pointed out t

Representation theory: Dirichlet's theorem

In this talk we see how to use characters of finite abelian groups to prove Dirichlet's theorem that there are infinitely many primes in certain arithmetic progressions. We first recall Euler's proof that there are infinitely many primes, which is the simplest case of Dirichlet's proof. T
