A Multiple Dirichlet Series Associated to Binary Quadratic Forms
Abstract: It is well-known that the sum of special values of the
Eisenstein series is equal to (up to some factors)
\zeta(s)L(s,\chi_d), where \zeta(s) is the Riemann zeta function and L(s, \chi_d)
is the quadratic Dirichlet L-series. In this talk, I will describe a new proof for this
old result, using a multiple Dirichlet series associated to binary quadratic forms.
In addition, I will describe generalizations and extensions.
