The properties of several functions are employed to investigate the zeros of the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(a+bi)$ $(0<a<1, b\neq 0)$. If the zeros of the zeta function have not the form $\frac{1}{2}+ib$ where $i=\sqrt{-1}$, we derive a…

Y\i ld\i r\i m has classified zeros of the derivatives of Dirichlet $L$-functions into trivial zeros, nontrivial zeros and vagrant zeros. In this paper we remove the possibility of vagrant zeros for $L'(s,\chi)$ when the conductors are…

As automorphic $L$-functions or Artin $L$-functions, several classes of $L$-functions have Euler products and functional equations. In this paper we study the zeros of $L$-functions which have the Euler products and functional equations. We…

Let $S(\sigma,t)=\frac{1}{\pi}\arg\zeta(\sigma+it)$ be the argument of the Riemann zeta function at the point $\sigma+it$ of the critical strip. For $n\geq 1$ and $t>0$ we define $$ S_{n}(\sigma,t) = \int_0^t S_{n-1}(\sigma,\tau)\,d\tau\, +…

We investigate the distribution of the zeros of partial sums of the Riemann zeta-function, sum_{n\leq X}n^{-s}, estimating the number of zeros up to height T, the number of zeros to the right of a given vertical line, and other aspects of…

In this paper, we investigate the distribution of the imaginary parts of zeros near the real axis of Dirichlet $L$-functions associated to the quadratic characters $\chi_{p}(\cdot)=(\cdot |p)$ with $p$ a prime number. Assuming the…

In this paper, we establish a simple criterion for two $L$-functions $L_1$ and $L_2$ satisfying a functional equation (and some natural assumptions) to have infinitely many distinct zeros. Some related questions have already been answered…

Generalizing work of Polya, de Bruijn and Newman, we allow the backward heat equation to deform the zeros of quadratic Dirichlet L-functions. There is a real constant \Lambda_Kr (generalizing the de Bruijn-Newman constant \Lambda) such that…

We prove a new explicit zero-free region for the Riemann zeta-function, drawing substantially on Heath-Brown's seminal work on Linnik's constant. Using these ideas we are able to prove that $\zeta(\sigma + it)\ne 0$ whenever $t\geq 3$ and…

In this paper, we estimate the proportion of zeros of Dirichlet $L$-functions on the critical line. Using Feng's mollifier and an asymptotic formula for the mean square of Dirichlet $L$-functions, we prove that averaged over primitive…

it is proved that at least 41.28% zeros of the Riemann zeta function are on the critical line

We study the distribution of large (and small) values of several families of $L$-functions on a line $\text{Re(s)}=\sigma$ where $1/2<\sigma<1$. We consider the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$ in the $t$-aspect, Dirichlet $L$-functions in…

On the assumption of the Riemann hypothesis, we generalize a central limit theorem of Fujii regarding the number of zeroes of Riemann's zeta function that lie in a mesoscopic interval. The result mirrors results of Soshnikov and others in…

Assuming the Generalised Riemann Hypothesis, we prove a sharp upper bound on moments of shifted Dirichlet $L$-functions. We use this to obtain conditional upper bounds on high moments of theta functions. Both of these results strengthen…

We study the value distribution of the Riemann zeta function near the line $\Re s = 1/2$. We find an asymptotic formula for the number of $a$-values in the rectangle $ 1/2 + h_1 / (\log T)^\theta \leq \Re s \leq 1/2+ h_2 /(\log T)^\theta $,…

In the present paper, we show that under the Riemann hypothesis, and for fixed $h, \epsilon > 0$, the supremum of the real and the imaginary parts of $\log \zeta (1/2 + it)$ for $t \in [UT -h, UT + h]$ are in the interval $[(1-\epsilon)…

Assuming the existence of a sequence of exceptional discriminants of quadratic fields, we show that a hundred percent of zeros of the Riemann zeta function are on the critical line in specific segments. This is a special case of a more…

In these lectures we first review the important properties of the Riemann $\zeta$-function that are necessary to understand the nature and importance of the Riemann hypothesis (RH). In particular this first part describes the analytic…

The purpose of this paper is to generalize our earlier work on the logarithm of the Riemann zeta-function to linear combinations of logarithms of primitive Dirichlet $L$-functions with constant real coefficients. Under the assumption of…

Let $F$ be a linear combination of $N\geq 1$ Dirichlet $L$-functions attached to even (or odd) primitive characters with the same modulus. Selberg proved that a positive proportion of non-trivial zeros of $F$ lie on the critical line. Our…
