In this article, we relax the condition on the coefficients while still arriving at the same conclusion. Specifically, we write $a_n$ as $|a_n| e^{i \\ttt_n}$ and we consider the sequences $\\{\\; |a_n| \\; \\}$ and $\\{\\; \\cos{\\ttt_n} \\; \\}$. Let $M \\in \\mathbb{N}$ be given. The condition on $\\{\\; |a_n| \\; \\}$ is that, dividing the sequence sequentially into vectors of length $M$, each vector lies in a certain convex cone $B \\subset [0,\\infty)^M$. The condition on $\\{\\; \\cos{\\ttt_n} \\; \\}$ is (roughly) that, again dividing the sequence sequentially into vectors of length $M$, each vector lies in the negative of the polar cone of $B$. We attempt to quantify the additional freedom allowed in choosing the $\\ttt_n$, compared to Landau's theorem. We also obtain sharpness results.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2010-09-01T17:39:16.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11M41", "30B50" ], "keywords": [ "extending landaus theorem", "non-negative coefficients", "vector lies", "ordinary dirichlet series", "absolute convergence" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 23, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2010arXiv1009.0228M" } } }
