The goal of this post is an even more symmetrical form that will yield the function \(\xi(s)\) which we can develop into an incredibly useful product expression. On our wish list for \(\xi(s)\) we find three items: It’s an entire function, i.e., a function that’s holomorphic everywhere in \(\mathbb{C}\) without any poles.
