Abstract
It is known that the Hurwitz zeta-function \(\zeta(s,\alpha)\) with transcendental or rational parameter \(\alpha\) has a discrete universality property; i.e., the shifts \(\zeta(s+ikh,\alpha)\), \(k\in\mathbb N_0\), \(h> 0\), approximate a wide class of analytic functions. The case of algebraic irrational \(\alpha\) is a complicated open problem. In the paper, some progress in this problem is achieved. It is proved that there exists a nonempty closed set \(F_{\alpha,h}\) of analytic functions such that the functions in \(F_{\alpha,h}\) are approximated by the above shifts. Also, the case of certain compositions \(\Phi(\zeta(s,\alpha))\) is discussed.
