Let P be the set of generalized prime numbers, and ζ P (s) , s = σ + i t , denote the Beurling zeta-function associated with P. In the paper, we consider the approximation of analytic functions by using shifts ζ P (s + i τ) , τ ∈ R . We assume the classical axioms for the number of generalized integers and the mean of the generalized von Mangoldt function, the linear independence of the set { log p : p ∈ P } , and the existence of a bounded mean square for ζ P (s) . Under the above hypotheses, we obtain the universality of the function ζ P (s) . This means that the set of shifts ζ P (s + i τ) approximating a given analytic function defined on a certain strip σ ^ < σ < 1 has a positive lower density. This result opens a new chapter in the theory of Beurling zeta functions. Moreover, it supports the Linnik–Ibragimov conjecture on the universality of Dirichlet series. For the proof, a probabilistic approach is applied. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The Lerch zeta function is defined by a Dirichlet series depending on two fixed parameters. In the paper, we consider the approximation of analytic functions by discrete shifts of the Lerch zeta function, and we prove that, for arbitrary parameters and a step of arithmetic progression, there is a closed non-empty subset of the space of analytic functions defined in the critical strip such that its functions can be approximated by discrete shifts of the Lerch zeta function. The set of those shifts is infinite, and it has a positive density. For the proof, the weak convergence of probability measures in the space of analytic functions is applied. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Let t τ be a solution to the equation θ (t) = (τ − 1) π , τ > 0 , where θ (t) is the increment of the argument of the function π − s / 2 Γ (s / 2) along the segment connecting points s = 1 / 2 and s = 1 / 2 + i t . t τ is called the Gram function. In the paper, we consider the approximation of collections of analytic functions by shifts of the Riemann zeta-function (ζ (s + i t τ α 1) , ... , ζ (s + i t τ α r)) , where α 1 , ... , α r are different positive numbers, in the interval [ T , T + H ] with H = o (T) , T → ∞ , and obtain the positivity of the density of the set of such shifts. Moreover, a similar result is obtained for shifts of a certain absolutely convergent Dirichlet series connected to ζ (s) . Finally, an example of the approximation of analytic functions by a composition of the above shifts is given. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In the paper, a Dirichlet series ζ u N (s) whose shifts ζ u N (s + i k h) , k = 0 , 1 , ⋯ , h > 0 , approximate analytic non-vanishing functions defined on the right-hand side of the critical strip is considered. This series is closely connected to the Riemann zeta-function. The sequence u N → ∞ and u N ≪ N 2 as N → ∞ . [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
