Talk:Hardy–Ramanujan–Littlewood circle method

• I think some reference weblinks or books would be appreciated, since this is a open encyclopedia for everybody, the method is somehow poorly explained (no examples) --83.213.38.122 16:18, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

• Appart from lacking references, the article is a bit 'fuzzy' the author does not mention that with x=1/z the series:

$f(z)=\sum _{n=0}^{\infty }a_{n}z^{n}$

is just a Zeta transform , which can be reversed to get the integral:

$2\pi ia_{n}=\oint f(z)z^{-(n+1)}$

to get the a(n), however the article does not mention an example or something similar to understand the ' Circle method' --85.85.100.144 19:04, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

I think the inclusion of the Ford CIrcles diagram is a pure distraction

There's a link to Ford Circles in the article text, where the (nice) diagram can be viewed. But it is of little direct relevance to the meat of the circle method.
