Riemann Zeta
Explore real Riemann zeta values, its pole and negative even zeros.
About this tool
Real Riemann zeta
For s>1, ζ(s) is the sum of n^(−s). Analytic continuation defines the other real values, except the single pole at s=1. Negative even integers −2,−4,… are exact trivial zeros. This real-line tool does not show nontrivial complex zeros.
Choose an overview, negative-zero, positive-value or pole view. Click or drag to evaluate a point; red zeros are clickable. The numeric field can evaluate outside the plotted interval. Plot bounds are limited to[−300,1000]. Only the true pole and numerical overflows break the sampled curve; no artificial near-pole band is removed.
The signed logarithmic axis uses sign(ζ)·log10(1+|ζ|), with ticks labeled in ζ values. It retains negative values and zero while showing large magnitudes. The linear axis is also available; very large linear values use an explicitly labeled common scale factor.
Calculations use double precision, Euler–Maclaurin with a bounded correction series, and the functional equation in the log domain. Finite neighbors of the pole and zeros are not snapped to them. Overflow differs from a pole. Values at sufficiently large positive s round to1 at floating-point precision. The sampled plot and displayed digits are approximations, not certified error bounds.
Views and scale choices update directly; range edits follow after a short pause or Enter. Click or drag the plot to choose s, or select an exact negative even root from the list. The compact ±log legend denotes sign(y) log10(1+|y|); tick labels still show original ζ values.
A completed session reconstructs the bounded real-axis samples with the same numerical method; it does not restore a complex-plane plot or certify every point between samples. Unfinished work stays unfinished. Numeric drafts are limited to128 characters.
