Abstract

In this paper, we study the Koshliakov zeta function ηp(s)\eta_p(s), whose theory appears to be more involved than that of its counterpart ζp(s)\zeta_p(s), owing to the fact that its defining series is not of Dirichlet type. We derive formulas for ηp(s)\eta_p(s) at both even and odd values of ss. In the limiting case pp\to\infty, our results yield the celebrated formulas of Euler and Ramanujan for the Riemann zeta function. Moreover, our results lead to several consequences concerning closed-form expressions for Lambert series and their arithmetic properties, recovering results due to Berndt, Cauchy, Ramanujan, and others. We also propose pp-analogues of the transformation formula for the classical Eisenstein series. Moreover, we introduce two families of pp-analogues of Ramanujan polynomials and establish functional equations satisfied by them.
