Failed attempt to disproof the Riemann Hypothesis

Abstract

In this paper we are going to describe the results of the computer experiment, which in principle can rule out the Riemann Hypothesis. We use the sequence ckc_k appearing in the \BD criterion for the RH. Namely we calculate c100000c_{100000} with thousand digits of accuracy using two different formulas for ckc_k with the aim to disproof the Riemann Hypothesis in the case these two numbers will differ. We found the discrepancy only on the 996 decimal place (accuracy of 1099610^{-996}). The reported here experiment can be of interest for developers of Mathematica and PARI/GP.
