Abstract

In this note, we prove an asymptotic formula for the mean-square of the so-called periodic zeta-function with respect to the parameter. This may be compared with similar formulae for Dirichlet L-functions to (multiplicative) residue class characters due to Paley and others. The periodic zeta-function is the twist of the Riemann zeta-function with an additive character.
