Abstract

A proof of the Riemann hypothesis is proposed by relying on the properties of the Mellin transform. The function Gη(t)\mathfrak{G}_{\eta}\left(t\right) is defined on the set Rˉ+\bar{\mathbb{R}}_+ of the non-negative real numbers, in term of a special power series, in such a way that the Mellin transform G^η(s)\hat{\mathfrak{G}}_{\eta}\left(s\right) of the function Gη(t)\mathfrak{G}_{\eta}\left(t\right) does not vanish in the fundamental strip 0<Res<1/20<\operatorname{Re} s <1/2. In this strip every zero of the Riemann zeta function ζ(1s)\zeta\left(1-s\right) is a zero of the function G^η(s)\hat{\mathfrak{G}}_{\eta}\left(s\right). Consequently, it is proved that no zero of the Riemann zeta function ζ(s)\zeta\left(s\right) exists in the strip 1/2<Res<11/2<\operatorname{Re} s <1. The reflection relations, which hold around the line Res=1/2\operatorname{Re} s =1/2 for s0,1s\neq 0,1, prove that no zero of the Riemann zeta function ζ(s)\zeta\left(s\right) exists in the strip 0<Res<1/20<\operatorname{Re} s<1/2. In conclusion, it is proved that no zero of the Riemann zeta function ζ(s)\zeta\left(s\right) exists in the strip 0<Res<10<\operatorname{Re} s<1 for Res1/2\operatorname{Re} s\neq 1/2.

Comments

I have been advised that the present proof is not complete as the analysis of the regular convergence of a double integral is not proved
