In algebraic number theory , an equivariant Artin Lfunction is a function associated to a finite Galois extension of global field s created by packaging together the various Artin Lfunction s associated with the extension. Each extension has many traditional Artin L functions associated with it, corresponding to the group character character s of Representation mathematics representations of the Galois group. By contrast, each extension has a unique corresponding equivariant Lfunction. Equivariant L functions have become increasingly important as a wide range of conjectures and theorems in number theory have been developed around them. Among these are the Brumer&ndash Stark conjecture , the Coates Sinnott conjecture , and a recently developed equivariant Iwasawa conjecture equivariant version of the Iwasawa main conjecture main conjecture in Iwasawa theory . unreferenced date January 2011 Category Field theory Category Algebraic number theory Category Zeta and L functions numtheory stub ... more details
In mathematics, the term standard Lfunction refers to a particular type of automorphic Lfunction described by Robert P. Langlands . ref Armand Borel, Automorphic L functions , Proc. Symp. Pure Math 33, American Mathematical Society, 1979, A. Borel and W. Casselman, editors. ref Here, standard refers to the finite dimensional representation r being the standard representation of the Langlands dual L group as a matrix group. Relations to other L functions Standard L functions are thought to be the most general type of Lfunction . Conjecturally, they include all examples of L functions, and in particular are expected to coincide with the Selberg class . Furthermore, all L functions over arbitrary number field s are widely thought to be instances of standard L functions for the general linear group GL n over the rational numbers Q. This makes them a useful testing ground for statements about L functions, since it sometimes affords structure from the theory of automorphic form s. Analytic properties These L functions were proven to always be entire by Roger Godement and Herv Jacquet , ref Roger Godement and Herve Jacquet, Zeta functions of simple algebras , Springer Lecture Notes in Mathematics, volume 260, 1972. ref with the sole exception of Riemann zeta function Riemann function , which arises for n 1.

In practice, if some naturally occurring set of primes has a Dirichlet ...hatnote This article is not about the Dirichlet distribution of probability theory. In mathematics , the Dirichlet density or analytic density of a set of prime number primes , named after Johann Peter Gustav Lejeune Dirichlet Johann Gustav Dirichlet , is a measure of the size of the set that is easier to use than the natural density . Definition If A is a subset of the prime numbers, the Dirichlet density of A is the limit math lim s rightarrow 1 sum p in A 1 over p s over log frac 1 s 1 math if the limit exists. This expression is usually the order of the pole complex analysis pole of math prod p in A 1 over 1 p s math at s 1, though in general it is not really a pole as it has non integral order , at least if the function on the right is a holomorphic function times a real power of s &minus 1 near s 1. For example, if A is the set of all primes, the function on the right is the Riemann zeta function which has a pole of order 1 at 0, so the set of all primes has Dirichlet density 1. More generally, one can define the Dirichlet density of a sequence of primes or prime powers , possibly with repetitions, in the same way. Properties If a subset of primes A has a natural density, given ... a Dirichlet density, and the two densities are the same. However it is usually easier to show that a set of primes has a Dirichlet density, and this is good enough for many purposes.

In mathematics , the Dirichlet s energy is a measure of how variable a function mathematics function is. More abstractly, it is a quadratic function quadratic functional on the Sobolev space math B H B sup 1 sup . The Dirichlet energy is intimately connected to Laplace s equation and is named after the Germany German mathematician Lejeune Dirichlet . Definition Given an open set math &Omega &sube R SUP VAR n VAR SUP and function math VAR u VAR &Omega &rarr R the Dirichlet s energy of the function math VAR u VAR is the real number math E u frac1 2 int Omega nabla u x 2 , mathrm d x, math where math &nabla VAR u VAR &Omega &rarr R sup VAR n VAR sup denotes the gradient vector field of the function math VAR u VAR . Properties and applications Since it is the integral of a non negative quantity, it is clear that the Dirichlet s energy is itself non negative, i.e. E VAR u VAR &ge 0 for every function math VAR u VAR . Solving Laplace s equation math Delta u x 0 text for all x in Omega math subject to appropriate boundary conditions is equivalent to solving the calculus of variations variational problem of finding a function math VAR u VAR that satisfies the boundary conditions and has minimal Dirichlet energy. Such a solution is called a harmonic function and such solutions are the topic of study in potential theory .

distinguish Dirichlet boundary condition In mathematics , the Dirichlet conditions are sufficient condition s for a real numbers real valued, periodic function f x to be equal to the sum of its Fourier series at each point where f is continuous function continuous . Moreover, the behavior of the Fourier series at points of discontinuity is determined as well it is the midpoint of the values of the discontinuity . These conditions are named after Johann Peter Gustav Lejeune Dirichlet . The conditions are f x must have a finite number of Maxima and minima extrema in any given interval f x must have a finite number of Classification of discontinuities discontinuities in any given interval f x must be absolutely integrable over a period. f x must be bounded function bounded Dirichlet s Theorem for 1 Dimensional Fourier Series We state Dirichlet s theorem assuming f is a periodic function of period 2 with Fourier series expansion where math a n frac 1 2 pi int pi pi f x e inx , dx. math The analogous statement holds irrespective of what the period of f is, or which version of the Fourier expansion is chosen see Fourier series . br Dirichlet s theorem If f satisfies Dirichlet conditions, then for all x , we have that the series obtained by plugging x into the Fourier series is convergent ... f x lim y to x f y math math f x lim y to x f y math denotes the right left limits of f . br A function satisfying Dirichlet s conditions must have right and left limits at each point of discontinuity, or else the function would need to oscillate at that point, violating the condition on maxima minima.
