Zeroes of partial sums of the zeta-function

Abstract

This article considers the positive integers NN for which ζN(s)=n=1Nns\zeta_{N}(s) = \sum_{n=1}^{N} n^{-s} has zeroes in the half-plane (s)>1\Re(s)>1. Building on earlier results, we show that there are no zeroes for 1N181\leq N\leq 18 and for N=20,21,28N=20, 21, 28. For all other NN there are infinitely many zeroes.
