Rapid computation of special values of Dirichlet $L$-functions
(2110.10583)Abstract
We consider computing the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$ and Dirichlet $L$-functions $L(s,\chi)$ to $p$-bit accuracy for large $p$. Using the approximate functional equation together with asymptotically fast computation of the incomplete gamma function, we observe that $p{3/2+o(1)}$ bit complexity can be achieved if $s$ is an algebraic number of fixed degree and with algebraic height bounded by $O(p)$. This is an improvement over the $p{2+o(1)}$ complexity of previously published algorithms and yields, among other things, $p{3/2+o(1)}$ complexity algorithms for Stieltjes constants and $n{3/2+o(1)}$ complexity algorithms for computing the $n$th Bernoulli number or the $n$th Euler number exactly.
We're not able to analyze this paper right now due to high demand.
Please check back later (sorry!).
