Zeta function and some of its properties

Introduction/purpose: Some properties of the zeta function will be shown as well as its applications in calculus, in particular the “golden nugget formula” for the value of the infinite sum 1 + 2 + 3 + · · · . Some applications in physics will also be mentioned. Methods: Complex plane integratio...
