The limit transition corresponds to the thermodynamical limit in Statistical Mechanics. We also prove some inequalities inspired by a recent conjecture by P. Sarnak concerning the randomness in the M bius sequence, and discuss a method of summation for the Riemann zeta function ¦Æ(s) on the vertical line ${\mathfrak{R}s = 1}$ . %U http://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s13373-011-0011-6
