Analytic continuation of Carlson's Dirichlet averages #
This file develops Carlson's regularized Dirichlet average as an entire function of the
Dirichlet parameters. It contains the abstract continuation predicate, the polynomial
construction, and the native resolvent average. R-polynomial Taylor-series constructions
are developed in Carlson.RPolynomial.PowerSeries.

A function of b is a regularized Carlson continuation for f and z if it is entire
and agrees with the native regularized Dirichlet integral on its domain of absolute
convergence.

Instances For
Construct a regularized Carlson continuation from entire dependence on b and agreement
with the native integral on the convergence region.
A regularized Carlson continuation is entire in the Dirichlet parameters.
A regularized Carlson continuation agrees with the native integral wherever that integral is absolutely convergent.
Two entire functions of the Dirichlet parameters that agree throughout the ordinary convergence region agree everywhere. This is the common continuation step for the identities proved from Carlson's native integral.
The entire regularized Carlson continuation, if it exists, is unique.
Two entire candidates which agree for every strictly positive real Dirichlet parameter agree globally. This is the uniqueness principle used to lift probability identities without first proving them on the full complex convergence region.
An entire candidate can be recognized as a Carlson continuation by comparison on positive real parameters with any already established continuation.
An entire candidate which has the probability-average values on positive real parameters is a Carlson continuation, provided one continuation is already known to exist. The reference continuation is used only for uniqueness.
A holomorphic scalar function on a convex open set admits an entire regularized Dirichlet-parameter continuation at every node vector in that set.
