===Globally convergent series=== A globally convergent series for the zeta function, valid for all complex numbers {{mvar|s}} except {{math|''s'' {{=}} 1 + {{sfrac|2π''i''|ln 2}}''n''}} for some integer {{mvar|n}}, was conjectured by [[Konrad Knopp]] in 1926 <ref name="blag2018" /> and proven by [[Helmut Hasse]] in 1930<ref name = Hasse1930 /> (cf. [[Euler summation]]): :<math>\zeta(s)=\frac{1}{1-2^{1-s}} \sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac {1}{2^{n+1}} \sum_{k=0}^n \binom{n}{k} \frac{(-1)^k}{(k+1)^{s}}.</math> The series appeared in an appendix to Hasse's paper, and was published for the second time by Jonathan Sondow in 1994.<ref>{{cite journal|first = Jonathan|last = Sondow|title = Analytic continuation of Riemann's zeta function and values at negative integers via Euler's transformation of series|journal = [[Proceedings of the American Mathematical Society]]|year = 1994|volume = 120|issue = 2|pages = 421–424|url = https://www.ams.org/journals/proc/1994-120-02/S0002-9939-1994-1172954-7/S0002-9939-1994-1172954-7.pdf|doi = 10.1090/S0002-9939-1994-1172954-7|doi-access = free}}</ref> Hasse also proved the globally converging series :<math>\zeta(s)=\frac 1{s-1}\sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac 1{n+1}\sum_{k=0}^n\binom {n}{k}\frac{(-1)^k}{(k+1)^{s-1}}</math> in the same publication.<ref name = Hasse1930 /> Research by Iaroslav Blagouchine<ref>{{cite journal | last = Blagouchine | first = Iaroslav V. | arxiv = 1501.00740 | doi = 10.1016/j.jnt.2015.06.012 | journal = [[Journal of Number Theory]] | pages = 365–396 | title = Expansions of generalized Euler's constants into the series of polynomials in {{pi}}<sup>−2</sup> and into the formal enveloping series with rational coefficients only | volume = 158 | year = 2016}}</ref><ref name="blag2018">{{cite journal | last = Blagouchine | first = Iaroslav V. | arxiv = 1606.02044 | url = http://math.colgate.edu/~integers/vol18a.html | journal = INTEGERS: The Electronic Journal of Combinatorial Number Theory | pages = 1–45 | title = Three Notes on Ser's and Hasse's Representations for the Zeta-functions | volume = 18A | year = 2018| doi = 10.5281/zenodo.10581385 | bibcode = 2016arXiv160602044B}}</ref> has found that a similar, equivalent series was published by [[Joseph Ser]] in 1926.<ref>{{cite journal|first = Joseph|last = Ser|author-link = Joseph Ser|title = Sur une expression de la fonction ζ(s) de Riemann|trans-title = Upon an expression for Riemann's ζ function|year = 1926|journal = [[Comptes rendus hebdomadaires des séances de l'Académie des Sciences]]|volume = 182|pages = 1075–1077|language = fr}}</ref> In 1997 K. Maślanka gave another globally convergent (except {{math|s {{=}} 1}}) series for the Riemann zeta function: :<math>\zeta (s)=\frac{1}{s-1}\sum_{k=0}^\infty \biggl(\prod_{i=1}^{k} (i-\frac{s}{2})\biggl) \frac{A_{k}}{k!}= \frac{1}{s-1} \sum_{k=0}^\infty \biggl(1-\frac{s}{2}\biggl)_{k} \frac{A_{k}}{k!}</math> where real coefficients <math>A_k</math> are given by: :<math>A_k=\sum_{j=0}^{k}(-1)^{j}\binom{k}{j}(2j+1)\zeta (2j+2)=\sum_{j=0}^{k}\binom{k}{j}\frac{B_{2j+2}\pi ^{2j+2}}{\left(2\right) _{j}\left( \frac{1}{2}\right) _{j}} </math> Here <math>B_{n}</math> are the Bernoulli numbers and <math>(x)_{k}</math> denotes the Pochhammer symbol.<ref>{{cite journal |first = Krzysztof |last = Maślanka |title = The Beauty of Nothingness |year = 1997 |journal = Acta Cosmologica |volume = XXIII-I |pages = 13–17}}</ref><ref>{{cite journal |first = Luis |last = Báez-Duarte |title = On Maslanka's Representation for the Riemann Zeta Function |year = 2010 |journal = [[International Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences]] |volume = 2010 |pages = 1–9 |doi = 10.1155/2010/714147 |doi-access = free |arxiv = math/0307214 }}</ref> Note that this representation of the zeta function is essentially an interpolation with nodes, where the nodes are points <math>s=2,4,6,\ldots </math>, i.e. exactly those where the zeta values are precisely known, as Euler showed. An elegant and very short proof of this representation of the zeta function, based on [[Carlson's theorem]], was presented by Philippe Flajolet in 2006.<ref>{{cite journal |first1 = Philippe |last1 = Flajolet |first2 = Linas |last2 = Vepstas |title = On Differences of Zeta Values |year = 2008 |journal = [[Journal of Computational and Applied Mathematics]] |volume = 220 |issue = 1–2 October |pages = 58–73 |doi = 10.1016/j.cam.2007.07.040 |arxiv = math/0611332|bibcode = 2008JCoAM.220...58F }}</ref> The asymptotic behavior of the coefficients <math>A_{k}</math> is rather curious: for growing <math>k</math> values, we observe regular oscillations with a nearly exponentially decreasing amplitude and slowly decreasing frequency (roughly as <math>k^{-2/3}</math>). Using the saddle point method, we can show that :<math>A_{k}\sim \frac{4\pi ^{3/2}}{\sqrt{3\kappa }}\exp \biggl( -\frac{3\kappa }{2}+\frac{\pi ^{2}}{4\kappa }\biggl) \cos \biggl( \frac{4\pi }{3}-\frac{3\sqrt{3} \kappa }{2}+\frac{\sqrt{3}\pi ^{2}}{4\kappa }\biggl)</math> where <math>\kappa</math> stands for: :<math>\kappa :=\sqrt[3]{\pi ^{2}k} </math> (see <ref>{{cite journal |first1 = Krzysztof |last1 = Maślanka |first2 = Andrzej |last2 = Koleżyński |title = The High Precision Numerical Calculation of Stieltjes Constants.

On the basis of this representation, in 2003 Luis Báez-Duarte provided a new criterion for the Riemann hypothesis.<ref>{{cite journal |first = Luis |last = Báez-Duarte |title = A New Necessary and Sufficient Condition for the Riemann Hypothesis |journal = Number Theory |arxiv = math/0307215 |year = 2003 |bibcode = 2003math......7215B }}</ref><ref>{{cite journal |first = Krzysztof |last = Maślanka |title = Báez-Duarte's Criterion for the Riemann Hypothesis and Rice's Integrals |journal = Number Theory |arxiv = math/0603713v2 |year = 2006 |bibcode = 2006math......3713M }}</ref><ref>{{cite journal |first = Marek |last = Wolf |title = Some remarks on the Báez-Duarte criterion for the Riemann Hypothesis |journal = Computational Methods in Science and Technology |volume = 20 |year = 2014 |issue = 2 |pages = 39–47 |doi = 10.12921/cmst.2014.20.02.39-47 |doi-access = free }}</ref> Namely, if we define the coefficients <math>c_{k}</math> as :<math>c_{k}:=\sum_{j=0}^{k}(-1)^{j}\binom{k}{j}\frac{1}{\zeta (2j+2)}</math> then the Riemann hypothesis is equivalent to :<math>c_{k}=\mathcal{O}\biggl( k^{-3/4+\varepsilon }\biggl) \qquad (\forall\varepsilon >0) </math>
