How prime numbers are related to special functions?

$begingroup$


We know that the Riemann zeta function is defined as



$$zeta(s)=sum_{n=1}^inftyfrac{1}{n^s},$$



for all $Re(s)>1$.



Because of Euler product formula we also know that



$$zeta(s) = sum_{n=1}^inftyfrac{1}{n^s} = prod_{p text{ prime}} frac{1}{1-p^{-s}},$$
for all $Re(s)>1.$



There are a lot of functions related to Riemann zeta function. For example




  • $zeta(s)=zeta(s,1)$ where $zeta(s,q)$ is the Hurwitz zeta function.

  • $zeta(s)=operatorname{Li}_s(1)$, where $operatorname{Li}_s(z)$ is the polylogarithm.

  • $zeta(s)=(1-2^{-s})^{-1}chi_s(1)$, where $chi_s(z)$ Legendre chi function

  • $zeta(s)=Phi (1,s,1)$, where $Phi(z, s, alpha)$ is the Lerch zeta function

  • $ zeta(s) = (1-2^{1-s})^{-1}eta(s)$, where $eta(s)$ is the Dirichlet eta function

  • $dots$ and there are lot of other related functions such as multiple zeta function, Barnes zeta function, the Clausen function, etc.


Question. Are there Euler product formula type statements to other special functions?

    You have linked to the Wikipedia pages on those functions. Were any Euler products given on those pages? If not, then that's very strong evidence that there are no Euler products.

    Well, the functions are well-known, and well-studied, so I figure if they have Euler products then it's well-known that they do.

The online L-functions and modular forms database (lmfdb.org) provides detailed information on a very large number of special functions and provides a functional equation and Euler product form for each of them.
