A random variable related to the Hurwitz zeta-function with algebraic parameter

Abstract

In this paper, we introduce a certain random variable closely related to the value-distribution of the Hurwitz zeta-function with algebraic parameter. We prove a version of the limit theorem, where the limit measure is presented by the law of this random variable. Then we apply it to show that any complex number can be approximated by values of the Hurwitz zeta-function for algebraic irrational parameters but with finite exceptions.
