Riemann Products
Speaking of Euler products associated to the zeta function, the totient function leads one to consider the product
where one of the terms on the right hand side is a sum over distinct prime factors. That is, in cancelling the factors, we have that
which is a simple sum over all ordinals composed of single prime factors. This may be rewritten
where the parity counts the number of prime factors in , and is an even prime. The function is the Mobius function, which is zero for with repeated prime factors.
