Epstein Zeta Function


\begin{displaymath}
Z\left\vert\matrix{{\bf g}\cr {\bf h}\cr}\right\vert (q;s)=\...
...-2\pi i{\bf h}\cdot{\bf l}}\over
[q({\bf l}+{\bf g})]^{s/2}},
\end{displaymath}

where ${\bf g}$ and ${\bf h}$ are arbitrary Vectors, the Sum runs over a $d$-dimensional Lattice, and ${\bf l}= -{\bf g}$ is omitted if ${\bf g}$ is a lattice Vector.
