How statement and proof provenance work

The first chip identifies the source of the statement or construction; the second identifies the source of its local proof or verification.

  • Literature-sourced: the exact statement appears in a cited source; only wording and notation differ.
  • AI-adapted: a semantically identical restatement of literature-sourced material, modulo indexing, notation, and boundary cases adopted by the library.
  • AI-generated: a genuinely novel statement formulated by AI, with no source for the claim itself.

These labels describe origin, not correctness: citations and verification chips remain separate evidence.

For Res>0, zeta admits the fractional-part integral formula with a simple residue-one pole at 1

Statement

For every complex number s with Res>0 and s1,

ζ(s)=ss1s1{x}xs1dx,

where {x}=xx is the fractional part. The integral defines a holomorphic function on Res>0, so the right-hand side is meromorphic there with a single simple pole at s=1 of residue 1.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: A complex number s with Res>1.

[L1]

On Res>1, ζ(s)=n1ns (The Riemann zeta function on the half-plane Res>1).

[L2]

For rational p>1, the series n1np converges (For rational p>0, 1/kp converges iff p>1).

1.1

For N2, s1Nxxs1dx=n=1N1n ⁣nn+1sxs1dx=n=1N1n(ns(n+1)s). Expanding the last sum gives s1Nxxs1dx=n=1N1ns(N1)Ns, and therefore n=1Nns=N1s+s1Nxxs1dx.

2.1

Since Res>1, the term N1s tends to 0 as N. Letting N in step 1.1 and using [L1] yields ζ(s)=s1xxs1dx=s1(x{x})xs1dx. Also s1xsdx=ss1, so ζ(s)=ss1s1{x}xs1dx on Res>1.

3.1

Let K{sC:Res>0} be compact, and choose σ>0 with Resσ on K. Because 0{x}<1, {x}xs1xσ1(x1, sK). Taking σ rational with σ>0, [L2] implies 1xσ1dx<, so the integral in step 2.1 converges absolutely and locally uniformly on Res>0. Hence it defines a holomorphic function there. Therefore the displayed formula continues meromorphically to Res>0, and the only singularity is the simple pole of s/(s1) at 1, whose residue is 1.
