We investigate the location of zeros and poles of a dynamical zeta function arizing in a class of lattice spin models introduced in the 60-ties by M. Kac. The transfer operator method allows us to prove the xistence of infinitely nontrivial…

The hypergeometric solutions to the KZ equation contain a certain symmetric ``master function'', [SV]. Asymptotics of the solutions correspond to critical points of the master function and give Bethe vectors of the inhomogeneous Gaudin…

The complex zeros of the Riemannn zeta-function are identical to the zeros of the Riemann xi-function, $\xi(s)$. Thus, if the Riemann Hypothesis is true for the zeta-function, it is true for $\xi(s)$. Since $\xi(s)$ is entire, the zeros of…

We discuss the relation between matrix models and the Seiberg--Witten type (SW) theories, recently proposed by Dijkgraaf and Vafa. In particular, we prove that the partition function of the Hermitean one-matrix model in the planar (large…

This paper shows that, in the critical strip, the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$ have the same set of zeros as $F(s):=\int_0^\infty t^{s-1}(e^t+1)^{-1}dt$, and then discusses the behavior of $F(s)$.

Physicists become acquainted with special functions early in their studies. Consider our perennial model, the harmonic oscillator, for which we need Hermite functions, or the Laguerre functions in quantum mechanics. Here we choose a…

In this paper we perform a detailed analysis of Riemann's hypothesis, dealing with the zeros of the analytically-extended zeta function. We use the functional equation $\zeta(s) = 2^{s}\pi^{s-1}\sin{(\displaystyle \pi…

Starting from the classical integral representation of the $\zeta(s)$ function introduced by Riemann in 1859, this paper reexamines its analytic symmetry structure. By performing a geometric decomposition of the integral representation, we…

We consider the Riesz and Hardy-Littlewood wave i.e. a ``critical function'' whose behaviour is concerned with the possible truth of the Riemann Hypothesis (RH). The function is studied numerically for the case alpha = 15/2 and beta = 4 in…
