Variants of the Wiener--Ikehara theorem #
TauCeti.LSeries.wienerIkehara treats nonnegative coefficients whose Dirichlet series has a
simple pole at s = 1, and reads the partial sums at a real cutoff. This file derives three
variants that arise when the theorem is applied.
- Finitely many negative coefficients. Only eventual nonnegativity of the coefficients is
needed: changing finitely many coefficients subtracts a finite Dirichlet polynomial from both the
series and its boundary remainder, which keeps the remainder continuous, and changes the partial
sums by a bounded amount, which is invisible after division by
x. - Natural cutoffs. The same limit along the natural numbers
N → ∞. - A pole at a positive abscissa. If the series converges on
Re s > σfor someσ > 0andF s - κ / (s - σ)extends continuously toRe s ≥ σ, thenx ^ (-σ) ∑_{1 ≤ n ≤ x} a n → κ / σ. The coefficientsa n n ^ (1 - σ)have the seriesF (s + σ - 1), which has its pole at1, so the theorem at1shows that their partial sums grow likeκ x; Abel summation againstt ^ (σ - 1), in the formTauCeti.tendsto_rpow_inv_mul_sum_Icc_rpow_mul, then recovers the partial sums ofaitself.
As in TauCeti.LSeries.wienerIkehara, the series hypothesis is LSeriesHasSum on the open
half-plane and the continuous boundary remainder is a separately named function G.

The Wiener--Ikehara theorem for eventually nonnegative coefficients. Let a n ≥ 0 for all
large n, let the Dirichlet series of a have sum F s on Re s > 1, and let G be continuous
on Re s ≥ 1 with G s = F s - κ / (s - 1) on Re s > 1. Then
x⁻¹ ∑_{1 ≤ n ≤ x} a n → κ as x → ∞.
