How to show convergence of the series sum over zeroes of the zeta function

173 Views Asked by At

In the explicit formula for the Chebyshev function, one of the terms that appears is $$ \sum_{\rho} \frac{x^\rho}{\rho} $$ where the sum is taken over the nontrivial zeroes of the zeta function. I'm a bit stuck on how one shows that this series converges.

I'm trying to understand the proof of the explicit formula. I understand all the steps, but it's still not clear to me why this sum ought to converge.
