This article proves the Riemann hypothesis, which states that all non-trivial zeros of the zeta function have a real part equal to 1/2. We inspect in detail the integral form of the (symmetrized) completed zeta function, which is a product…
We revisit the Fourier transform of a Hankel function, of considerable importance in the theory of knife edge diffraction. Our approach is based directly upon the underlying Bessel equation, which admits manipulation into an alternate…
In 1914, Hardy proved that infinitely many non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function lie on the critical line using the transformation formula of the Jacobi theta function. Recently the first author obtained an integral representation…
We compute Fourier transforms of functions expressed as a ratio of one of the Jacobi elliptic functions divided by $\sinh(\pi x)$ or $\cosh(\pi x)$. In many cases, the resulting Fourier transform remains within the same class of functions.…
We present explicit expressions for the Mellin transforms of Laguerre and Hermite functions in terms of a variety of special functions. We show that many of the properties of the resulting functions, including functional equations and…
We consider those elements of the Schwartz algebra of entire functions which are Fourier-Laplace transforms of invertible distributions with compact supports on the real line. These functions are called invertible in the sense of…
Starting from a problem in number theory, the article investigates the properties of the couples of Fourier transforms on the real line, f and g, real and even, f >= 0 out of an interval (-a, a) and f(0) < 0, g >= 0 out of an interval (-b,…
Baker's conjecture states that a transcendental entire function of order less than $1/2$ has no unbounded Fatou components. It is known that, for such functions, there are no unbounded periodic Fatou components and so it remains to show…
Let $F$ be an entire function of exponential type represented by the Taylor series \[ F(z) = \sum_{n\ge 0} \omega_n \frac{z^n}{n!} \] with unimodular coefficients $|\omega_n|=1$. We show that either the counting function $n_F(r)$ of zeroes…
We show that under repeated differentiation, the zeros of the Selberg $\Xi$-function become more evenly spaced out, but with some scaling towards the origin. We do this by showing the high derivatives of the $\Xi$-function converge to the…
The existence of non trivial zeros off the critical line for a function obtained by analytic continuation of a particular Dirichlet series is studied. Contrary to what has been presumed for a long time, we prove that such zeros cannot…
Recently, Dixit et al. established a very elegant generalization of Hardy's Theorem concerning the infinitude of zeros that the Riemann zeta function possesses at its critical line. By introducing a general transformation formula for the…
We show that for a positive proportion of real primitive Dirichlet characters chi, the associated Dirichlet L-function L(s,chi) has no zeros on the positive real axis. Prior to this it was not known whether or not there were infinitely many…
This theorem is based on holomorphy of studied functions and the fact that near a singularity point the real part of some rational function can take an arbitrary preassigned value.
Let $\phi(x)=\sum \alpha_n x^n$ be a formal power series with real coefficients, and let $D$ denote differentiation. It is shown that "for every real polynomial $f$ there is a positive integer $m_0$ such that $\phi(D)^mf$ has only real…
Let $\xi$ be a value, at an algebraic point, of a Siegel $E$-function. As a special case of a very general interpolation result, we prove that there exists an $E$-function $f$ such that $f(1)=\xi$, and such that 1 is not a singularity of…
The necessary and sufficient conditions for a class of functions $f:\mathbb{Z}_2^n \rightarrow \mathbb{Z}_q$, where $q \geq 2$ is an even positive integer, have been recently identified for $q=4$ and $q=8$. In this article we give an…
This paper proposes a reformulation of the Riemann Xi function in order to investigate its properties. The reformulated function, which depicts the Xi function as the weighted sum of incomplete gamma functions, is validated, and a number of…
We present an unconditional proof that non-trivial zeros of the Riemann Zeta function must lie strictly on the critical line $\text{Re}(s) = 0.5$. By defining a recursive path of Taylor expansions originating from the domain of absolute…
We describe in detail three distinct families of generalized zeta functions built over the (nontrivial) zeros of a rather general arithmetic zeta or L-function, extending the scope of two earlier works that treated the Riemann zeros only.…
