The Dirichlet function is not Riemann-integrable on any segment of despite being bounded because the set of its discontinuity points is not negligible (for the Lebesgue measure). The Dirichlet function provides a counterexample showing that the monotone convergence theorem is not true in the context of the Riemann integral.

Fixing an integer k ≥ 1, the Dirichlet L-functions for characters modulo k are linear combinations, with constant coefficients, of the ζ(s,a) where a = r/k and r = 1, 2, ..., k. This means that the Hurwitz zeta function for rational a has analytic properties that are closely related to the Dirichlet L-functions.
One example of such a function is the indicator function of the rational numbers, also known as the Dirichlet function. This function is denoted as 1 Q {\displaystyle \mathbf {1} _{\mathbb {Q} }} and has domain and codomain both equal to the real numbers .
Of particular importance is the fact that the L 1 norm of D n on [,] diverges to infinity as n → ∞.One can estimate that ‖ ‖ = (). By using a Riemann-sum argument to estimate the contribution in the largest neighbourhood of zero in which is positive, and Jensen's inequality for the remaining part, it is also possible to show that: ‖ ‖ + where is the sine integral
The most famous example of a Dirichlet series is = =,whose analytic continuation to (apart from a simple pole at =) is the Riemann zeta function.. Provided that f is real-valued at all natural numbers n, the respective real and imaginary parts of the Dirichlet series F have known formulas where we write +:
This allows mathematicians to study the Laplace equation and heat equation on spaces that are not manifolds, for example, fractals. The benefit on these spaces is that one can do this without needing a gradient operator, and in particular, one can even weakly define a "Laplacian" in this manner if starting with the Dirichlet form.
The set of arithmetic functions forms a commutative ring, the Dirichlet ring, under pointwise addition, where f + g is defined by (f + g)(n) = f(n) + g(n), and Dirichlet convolution. The multiplicative identity is the unit function ε defined by ε ( n ) = 1 if n = 1 and ε ( n ) = 0 if n > 1 .
