This is the fourth episode of the RH Saga.
We finally give a rigorous definition of what an L-function actually is, using four axioms.
The axioms include the functional equation (encoding the fundamental symmetry inherent in every L-function) and the Euler product (encoding the connection between L-functions and the primes).
The overall aim of RH Saga Season 1 is to map the landscape of L-functions, as a foundation for in-depth exploration of some of the most immortal math problems of all time.

Errata:
1:33 “Millions of examples”: To clarify, there are infinitely many L-functions, so a lot more than mere “millions”. The point here was to say that many unproven properties of L-functions (like the RH up to some height in the critical strip) have been checked in millions of examples.
