The Hurwitz zeta-function ζ (s , α) , s = σ + i t , with parameter 0 < α ⩽ 1 is a generalization of the Riemann zeta-function ζ (s) ( ζ (s , 1) = ζ (s) ) and was introduced at the end of the 19th century. The function ζ (s , α) plays an important role in investigations of the distribution of prime numbers in arithmetic progression and has applications in special function theory, algebraic number theory, dynamical system theory, other fields of mathematics, and even physics. The function ζ (s , α) is the main example of zeta-functions without Euler's product (except for the cases α = 1 , α = 1 / 2 ), and its value distribution is governed by arithmetical properties of α. For the majority of zeta-functions, ζ (s , α) for some α is universal, i.e., its shifts ζ (s + i τ , α) , τ ∈ R , approximate every analytic function defined in the strip { s : 1 / 2 < σ < 1 } . For needs of effectivization of the universality property for ζ (s , α) , the interval for τ must be as short as possible, and this can be achieved by using the mean square estimate for ζ (σ + i t , α) in short intervals. In this paper, we obtain the bound O (H) for that mean square over the interval [ T − H , T + H ] , with T 27 / 82 ⩽ H ⩽ T σ and 1 / 2 < σ ⩽ 7 / 12 . This is the first result on the mean square for ζ (s , α) in short intervals. In forthcoming papers, this estimate will be applied for proof of universality for ζ (s , α) and other zeta-functions in short intervals. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In the paper, we prove a joint limit theorem in terms of the weak convergence of probability measures on C 2 defined by means of the Epstein ζ (s ; Q) and Hurwitz ζ (s , α) zeta-functions. The limit measure in the theorem is explicitly given. For this, some restrictions on the matrix Q and the parameter α are required. The theorem obtained extends and generalizes the Bohr-Jessen results characterising the asymptotic behaviour of the Riemann zeta-function. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, we consider universality in short intervals for the zeta-function attached to a normalized Hecke-eigen cusp form with respect to the modular group. For this, we apply a conjecture for the mean square in short interval on the critical strip for that zeta-function. The proof of the obtained universality theorem is based on a probabilistic limit theorem in the space of analytic functions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In the paper, we prove a general universality theorem for the Riemann zeta-function ζ (s) on approximation of a class of analytic functions by generalized shifts ζ (s + ia(τ)). Here a(τ) is a real-valued continuous increasing to +∞ function, uniformly distributed modulo 1 and such that |ζ(σ + ia(τ) + it)|2, for σ > 1/2, has a traditional mean estimate for every t ∈ ℝ. For example, the function tv(τ), v > 0, where t(τ) is the Gram function, satisfies the hypotheses of the proved theorem. For the proof, the method of weak convergence of probabilistic measures in the space of analytic functions is developed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In the paper, we prove a limit theorem in the sense of the weak convergence of probability measures for the modified Mellin transform Z (s) , s = σ + i t , with fixed 1 / 2 < σ < 1 , of the square | ζ (1 / 2 + i t) | 2 of the Riemann zeta-function. We consider probability measures defined by means of Z (σ + i φ (t)) , where φ (t) , t ⩾ t 0 > 0 , is an increasing to + ∞ differentiable function with monotonically decreasing derivative φ ′ (t) satisfying a certain normalizing estimate related to the mean square of the function Z (σ + i φ (t)) . This allows us to extend the distribution laws for Z (s) . [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

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]

In this paper, the approximation of analytic functions by shifts  ζ P (s + i τ)  of Beurling zeta-functions  ζ P (s)  of certain systems  P  of generalized prime numbers is discussed. It is required that the system of generalized integers  N P  generated by  P  satisfies  ∑ m ⩽ x , m ∈ N 1 = a x + O (x δ) ,  a > 0 ,  0 ⩽ δ < 1 , and the function  ζ P (s)  in some strip lying in  σ ^ < σ < 1 ,  σ ^ > δ , which has a bounded mean square. Proofs are based on the convergence of probability measures in some spaces. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
