We have the following Laurent expansions about s = 1 : − ζ ( s ) ζ ′ ( s ) = n = 1 ∑ ∞ n s Λ ( n ) ζ ( s ) = n = 1 ∑ ∞ n s 1 = = ( s − 1 ) − 1 − γ + ( γ 2 + 2 γ 1 ) ( s − 1 ) + O ( ( s − 1 ) 2 ) ( s − 1 ) − 1 + γ − γ 1 ( s − 1 ) + O ( ( s − 1 ) 2 ) where γ 1 is the first Stieltjes constant, and hence n = 1 ∑ ∞ n s Λ ( n ) − 1 = − ζ ( s ) ζ ′ ( s ) − ζ ( s ) = − 2 γ + ( γ 2 + 3 γ 1 ) ( s − 1 ) + O ( ( s − 1 ) 2 ) Thus we have a removable singularity at s = 1 for this combined function, and hence n = 1 ∑ ∞ n Λ ( n ) − 1 = s → 1 lim [ − ζ ( s ) ζ ′ ( s ) − ζ ( s ) ] = − 2 γ making the desired answer equal to − 2 .
