In this note, we prove the irrationality of $\zeta(5)$ and generalize the method to prove the irrationality of all higher odd zeta values. Our proof relies on the method of contradiction, existence of solution of a system of Linear…

Finite differences of values of the Riemann zeta function at the integers are explored. Such quantities, which occur as coefficients in Newton series representations, have surfaced in works of Maslanka, Coffey, Baez-Duarte, Voros and…

Let $S(t) = \frac{1}{\pi}\Im \log\zeta\left(\frac{1}{2}+it\right)$. We prove an unconditional lower bound on the measure of the sets $\{t\in [T,2T] \colon S(t) \geq V\}$ for $\sqrt{\log\log T} \leq V \ll \left(\frac{\log T}{\log \log…

Selberg's central limit theorem states that the values of $\log|\zeta(1/2+i \tau)|$, where $\tau$ is a uniform random variable on $[T,2T]$, is distributed like a Gaussian random variable of mean $0$ and standard deviation…

In this paper we generalize Nesterenko's criterion to the case where the small linear forms have an oscillating behaviour (for instance given by the saddle point method). This criterion provides both a lower bound for the dimension of the…

On the assumption of the Riemann hypothesis and a spacing hypothesis for the nontrivial zeros $\frac12+i\gamma$ of the Riemann zeta function, we show that the sequence \[ \Gamma_{[a, b]} =\Bigg\{ \gamma : \gamma>0 \quad \mbox{and} \quad…

We found, by Hurwitz's Zeta Function, a new functional equation for Riemann Zeta Function. Considering this equation for $s=2$ and $s=1$, we determine a relation between the values of Riemann zeta Function on positive integers. The Matrix…

Let $b \ge 2$ be an integer and $\xi$ an irrational real number. We prove that, if the irrationality exponent of $\xi$ is equal to $2$ or slightly greater than $2$, then the $b$-ary expansion of $\xi$ cannot be `too simple', in a suitable…

The author has previously extended the theory of regular and irregular primes to the setting of arbitrary totally real number fields. It has been conjectured that the Bernoulli numbers, or alternatively the values of the Riemann zeta…

Under the Riemann Hypothesis, we show that as $t$ varies in $T\leq t \leq 2T$, the distribution of $\log|\zeta(1/2+it)|$ with respect to the measure $|\zeta(1/2+it)|^2dt$ is approximately normal with mean $\log\log T$ and variance…

We have looked at the evaluation of the Riemann Zeta function at odd arguments and have provided a simple formula to approximate the value with exponential convergence. We have compared it with various other formulae present in literature.…

By modifying Beukers' proof of Apery's theorem that zeta(3) is irrational, we derive criteria for irrationality of Euler's constant, gamma. For n > 0, we define a double integral I(n) and a positive integer S(n), and prove that if d(n) =…

Assume the Riemann Hypothesis, and let $\gamma^+>\gamma>0$ be ordinates of two consecutive zeros of $\zeta(s)$. It is shown that if $\gamma^+-\gamma < v/ \log \gamma $ with $v<c$ for some absolute positive constant $c$, then the box $$…
