A functional equation is a relation that defines a function in terms of its value at different points, typically revealing symmetries or properties of the function. In the context of L-functions, these are complex functions arising in number theory and are particularly important in areas such as analytic number theory and the theory of modular forms. ### L-functions L-functions are certain complex functions that encode deep arithmetic properties of numbers.
