Mellin Transform of The Riesz Function
The Riesz function is related to the Riemann zeta function via its Mellin transform. If we take
we see that if then
converges, whereas from the growth condition we have that if then
converges. Putting this together, we see the Mellin transform of the Riesz function is defined on the strip . On this strip, we have
From the inverse Mellin transform, we now get an expression for the Riesz function, as
where c is between minus one and minus one-half. If the Riemann hypothesis is true, we can move the line of integration to any value less than minus one-fourth, and hence we get the equivalence between the fourth-root rate of growth for the Riesz function and the Riemann hypothesis.
G. H. Hardy gave the integral representation of using Borel resummation as

Famous quotes containing the words transform and/or function:
“God defend me from that Welsh fairy,
Lest he transform me to a piece of cheese!”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“Our father has an even more important function than modeling manhood for us. He is also the authority to let us relax the requirements of the masculine model: if our father accepts us, then that declares us masculine enough to join the company of men. We, in effect, have our diploma in masculinity and can go on to develop other skills.”
—Frank Pittman (20th century)
