제안 배경
This is a continued project starting at 2019. Everyone interested in this topic is welcome to join, even though this project is targeted for the math oriented students.
Riemann zeta function is a complex valued function (the Dirichlet series $\zeta(s)=\sum_{n=1}^\infty {1}/{n^s}$) of a complex variable $s$ that is extended analytically to the whole plane except to the point $s=1+0\sqrt{-1}$. The values of the Riemann zeta function at $s=2n$, $n=1,2,3,\dots$ were computed by Euler and the values at negative integer points also found by Euler are rational numbers. In 1979 Roger Apéry and his successors proved the irrationality of $\zeta(3)$. Next, the proof of the irrationality of $\zeta(5)$ is waiting to be attacked.
과제 목표
Prove that $\zeta(5)$ is irrational. Of course, there is a possibility that $\zeta(5)$ is a rational number. Who knows?
과제 내용
