The Upsilon function , Υ (s ) , is a function of a complex variable s that analytically continues the sum of the infinite series
Υ
(
s
)
=
∑
n
=

∞
1
n
2
+
s
2
{\displaystyle \Upsilon (s)=\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }{\frac {1}{n^{2}+s^{2}}}}
for
s
≠
k
i
,
k
∈
Z
−
{
0
}
{\displaystyle s\neq ki,k\in \mathbb {Z} -\{0\}}
It was suggested in 2016 by Mohamad Emami and Alireza Jamali, analogous to the Riemann zeta function .
Definition [ edit ]
The original Upsilon function is defined as
Υ

=
∑

=

{\displaystyle \Upsilon (s)=\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }{\frac {1}{n^{2}+s^{2}}}={\frac {\pi }{2s}}\coth(\pi s)-{\frac {1}{2s^{2}}}}
For all complex numbers
s
∈
C
−
{

∈
Z
∣
k

0
}
{\displaystyle s\in \mathbb {C} -\{ki\in \mathbb {Z} \mid k\neq 0\}}
.
The Upsilon function Υ (s ) is a meromorphic function of a complex variable
s
{\displaystyle s}
, which has isolated singularities at points
k
i
{\displaystyle ki}
where
k
{\displaystyle k}
is a non-zero integer.
At point
s
=
0
{\displaystyle s=0}
the function has a removable singularity ; one can readily remove this singular point by assigning the value
ζ
(
2
)
=
π
2
6
{\displaystyle \zeta (2)={\frac {\pi ^{2}}{6}}}
( see Basel problem ).
The Upsilon function is actually Generalized Upsilon function of order π when the generalized Upsilon function of order
ν
{\displaystyle \nu }
is defined as

{\displaystyle \Upsilon _{\nu }(s)=\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }{\frac {1}{s^{2}+({\frac {n\pi }{\nu }})^{2}}}={\frac {\nu }{2s}}\coth(\nu s)-{\frac {1}{2s^{2}}}}
Singularities [ edit ]
“
One can easily see that for
s
=
k
i
,
k
∈
Z
{\displaystyle s=ki,k\in \mathbb {Z} }
the function has singularities and the sum diverges, ...
”
Anyway, we know that at
s
=
0
{\displaystyle s=0}
the function has a removable singularity and we can remove it as mentioned above.
Roots and Upsilon conjecture [ edit ]
It was conjectured by Emami and Jamali that All roots of the Upsilon function have the form of
s
=
i
x
{\displaystyle s=ix}
for all
x
∈
R
−
{
0
}
{\displaystyle x\in \mathbb {R} -\{0\}}
satisfying the equation
π
x
=
tan
π
x
{\displaystyle \pi x=\tan \pi x}
.
So far, it is not known whether all roots are of the above form or not, leaving it as an open problem (Upsilon conjecture) .
