Talk:Apéry's constant
From OeisWiki
- "... it is the output value of Riemann's zeta function for the input value of the real integer 3."
This is ridiculous. A function does not have an output value. A function also does not have a muffler. And in mathematics Riemann's zeta function is nowadays called Riemann zeta function; perhaps because Riemann's copyright has expired and the function now is in the public domain? And to call 3 a 'real integer' is a real ..., words fail me, well perhaps 'unusually enlightening'. Maybe we should also relabel this wiki to 'OERIS wiki' ...

- Good point about about the "'s."
- As for the other stuff, well, there is a green box saying the article needs more work. Alonso del Arte 19:01, 31 December 2010 (UTC)
- The term "real integer" is useless. The term rational integer (the common integers), is useful (if the context warrants it) if we need to distinguish them from other algebraic integers such as quadratic integers (e.g. Gaussian integers, Eisenstein integers, ...), cubic integers (e.g. ?) etc. — Daniel Forgues 09:10, 20 August 2012 (UTC)
zeta(-2) = - zeta(3)/(4*pi^2)?
- "Note also that "
Are you sure about that? Isn't ?

- This formula doesn't make sense, -2 is one of the trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function! — Daniel Forgues 05:52, 20 August 2012 (UTC)
- This is clearly a wrong formulation and should be deleted from this article. — Balarka Sen 06:29, 20 August 2012 (UTC)
- I tried to find what could have been the intended formula, without success, so I deleted it. — Daniel Forgues 08:59, 20 August 2012 (UTC)
