Abstract:

The Wiener–Ikehara Tauberian theorem is an important theorem giving an asymptotic formula for the sum of coefficients of a Dirichlet series. In this talk, we present a simple and elegant proof of the Wiener–Ikehara Tauberian theorem which relies only on basic Fourier analysis and known estimates for the given Dirichlet series. This method allows us to derive a version of the WienerIkehara theorem with an error term. This is joint work with Prof. M. Ram Murty and Prof. Akshaa Vatwani.
