Small values of $|\zeta(1/2+it)|$ are investigated, using the value distribution results of A. Selberg. This gives an asymptotic formula for $\mu(\{0 < t \le T : |\zeta(1/2+it)| \le c\})$. Some related problems involving values of…

This is a reworked version of the paper. An idea that allows us to circumvent limitations of previous approaches is not to apply arithmetic-geometric mean inequality and the second moment asymptotics to the entire segment $[1/2-a/\log…

For each prime $p$, let $I_p \subset \mathbb{Z}/p\mathbb{Z}$ denote a collection of residue classes modulo $p$ such that the cardinalities $|I_p|$ are bounded and about $1$ on average. We show that for sufficiently large $x$, the sifted set…

By some hypergeometric summation theorems, the authors establish a series of new infinite summation formulas involving generalized harmonic numbers related to Riemann-Zeta function, with three different patterns.

We show that if the derivative of the Riemann zeta function has sufficiently many zeros close to the critical line, then the zeta function has many closely spaced zeros. This gives a condition on the zeros of the derivative of the zeta…

In previous work it was shown that if certain series based on sums over primes of non-principal Dirichlet characters have a conjectured random walk behavior, then the Euler product formula for its $L$-function is valid to the right of the…

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…

Let $\Theta$ denote the supremum of the real parts of the zeros of the Riemann zeta function. We demonstrate that $\Theta=1$, which entails the existence of infinitely many Riemann zeros off the critical line (thus disproving the Riemann…

Assuming the Riemann hypothesis, we prove estimates for the variance of the real and imaginary part of the logarithm of the Riemann zeta-function in short intervals. We give three different formulations of these results. Assuming a…

We consider random polynomials with independent identically distributed coefficients with a fixed law. Assuming the Riemann hypothesis for Dedekind zeta functions, we prove that such polynomials are irreducible and their Galois groups…

In a recent work Friedlander studied the problem of how large consecutive prime gaps should be in order that the sum of the reciprocals should be divergent. Supposing a very deep Hypothesis, a generalization of the Hardy--Littlewood prime…

Assuming the Riemann hypothesis and Montgomery's Pair Correlation Conjecture, we investigate the distribution of the sequences $(\log|\zeta(\rho+z)|)$ and $(\arg\zeta(\rho+z)).$ Here $\rho=\frac12+i\gamma$ runs over the nontrivial zeros of…

The transformations of the sum identities for generalized harmonic and oscillatory numbers, obtained earlier in our recent report [1], enable us to derive the new identities expressed in terms of the corresponding square roots of x. At…

We consider the alternating Riemann zeta function $\zeta^*(s)= \sum^{\infty} _{ n=1} \frac{(-1)^{n-1}}{n^s}$, which converges if $Re (s)>0 .$ By using Rouche's theorem, the Bolzano-Weierstrass theorem and by method of contradiction we…

We prove that the error in the prime number theorem can be quantitatively improved beyond the Riemann Hypothesis bound by using versions of Montgomery's conjecture for the pair correlation of zeros of the Riemann zeta-function which are…

This paper deals with the distribution of $\alpha \zeta^{n} \bmod 1$, where $\alpha\neq 0,\zeta>1$ are fixed real numbers and $n$ runs through the positive integers. Denote by $\Vert.\Vert$ the distance to the nearest integer. We…

Consider a plane graph G, drawn with straight lines. For every pair a,b of vertices of G, we compare the shortest-path distance between a and b in G (with Euclidean edge lengths) to their actual distance in the plane. The worst-case ratio…

We make plausible the existence of counterexamples to the Riemann hypothesis located in the neighbourhood of unusually large peaks of $\vert \zeta \vert$. The main ingredient in our argument is an identity which links the zeros of a…

For any real $\beta_0\in[\tfrac12,1)$, let ${\rm GRH}[\beta_0]$ be the assertion that for every Dirichlet character $\chi$ and all zeros $\rho=\beta+i\gamma$ of $L(s,\chi)$, one has $\beta\le\beta_0$ (in particular, ${\rm GRH}[\frac12]$ is…

Zeckendorf's theorem states that every positive integer can be uniquely decomposed as a sum of nonconsecutive Fibonacci numbers. The distribution of the number of summands converges to a Gaussian, and the individual measures on gaps between…
