First, we recount a history of how certain methods using natural self-adjoint operators have, thus far, failed to prove the Riemann Hypothesis. In Section 2, we set the analytical context necessary to have genuine proofs in later sections,…
We construct a Hamiltonian H whose discrete spectrum contains, in a certain limit, the Riemann zeros. H is derived from the action of a massless Dirac fermion living in a domain of Rindler spacetime, in 1+1 dimensions, that has a boundary…
We explore Fourier transforms of the reciprocal of the Riemann zeta function that have connections to the RH. A partial answer to a recently posed problem is explored by exploiting the fact that $\zeta(s)\neq0$ when $\Re(s)=1.$
We propose an architecture of a conjecture concerning the Riemann Hypothesis in the form of an "alternative" to the P\'olya strategy: we construct a Hamiltonian H_Polya whose spectrum coincides exactly with that of the Harmonic Oscillator…
For the Riemann zeta-function, we introduce a function such that it is a characteristic function of an infinitely divisible distribution on the real line if and only if the Riemann Hypothesis is true.
The Argand diagram is used to display some characteristics of the Riemann Zeta function. The zeros of the Zeta function on the complex plane give rise to an infinite sequence of closed loops, all passing through the origin of the diagram.…
In this series of seven papers, predominantly by means of elementary analysis, we establish a number of identities related to the Riemann zeta function. Whilst this paper is mainly expository, some of the formulae reported in it are…
We compute the one-level density of the non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta-function weighted by $|\zeta(\frac12+it)|^{2k}$ for $k=1$ and, for test functions with Fourier support in $(-\frac12,\frac12)$, for $k=2$. As a consequence, for…
This is a review of some of the interesting properties of the Riemann Zeta Function.
The Riemann Hypothesis is a conjecture that all non-trivial zeros of Riemann Zeta function are located on the critical line in the complex plane. Hundreds of propositions in function theory and analytic number theory rely on this…
We present drawings on the complex plane of the lines Im(zeta(s))=0 and Re(zeta(s))=0. This allow to illustrate many properties of the zeta function of Riemann. This is an expository paper. It does not pretend to prove any new result about…
A method is presented to compute approximate solutions for eigenequations in quantum mechanics with an arbitrary kinetic part. In some cases, the approximate eigenvalues can be analytically determined and they can be lower or upper bounds.…
The functional equation for Riemann's Zeta function is studied, from which it is shown why all of the non-trivial, full-zeros of the Zeta function $\zeta (s)$ will only occur on the critical line {$\sigma=1/2$} where {$s=\sigma+I \rho$},…
In this article, we review the general quantum mechanical setting associated to a non self-adjoint Hamiltonian with real spectrum. Spectral properties of the Hamiltonian of a simple model of the Swanson type are investigated. The…
We present an evaluation of some recent attempts at understanding the role of pseudo-Hermitian and PT-symmetric Hamiltonians in modeling unitary quantum systems and elaborate on a particular physical phenomenon whose discovery originated in…
The GUE Hypothesis, which concerns the distribution of zeros of the Riemann zeta-function, is used to evaluate some integrals involving the logarithmic derivative of the zeta-function. Some connections are shown between the GUE Hypothesis…
This paper continues a series of investigations on converging representations for the Riemann Zeta function. We generalize some identities which involve Riemann's zeta function, and moreover we give new series and integrals for the zeta…
In this series of seven papers, predominantly by means of elementary analysis, we establish a number of identities related to the Riemann zeta function. Whilst this paper is mainly expository, some of the formulae reported in it are…
In this paper, a non-trivial system governed by a continuum PT-symmetric Hamiltonian is discussed. We show that this Hamiltonian is iso-spectral to the simple harmonic oscillator. We find its eigenfunctions and the path in the complex plane…
We investigate the simultaneous distribution of the fractional parts of $\{\alpha_1 \gamma, \alpha_2\gamma, \cdots, \alpha_n\gamma\}$, where $n\geq 2$, $\alpha_1$, $\alpha_2$, $\ldots$, $\alpha_n$ are fixed, distinct positive real numbers…
