Let S = <s_1, s_2, s_3, ..., s_n> be a given vector of n real numbers. The rank of a real z with respect to S is defined as the number of elements s_i in S such that s_i is less than or equal to z. We consider the following decision…

In this article, we give explicit bounds of order $\log t$ for $\sigma$ close to $1$, for two quantities: $|\zeta'(\sigma +it)/\zeta(\sigma +it)|$ and $|1/\zeta(\sigma +it)|$. We correct an error in the literature, and especially in the…

We give a proof of the irrationality of the $p$-adic zeta-values $\zeta_p(k)$ for $p=2,3$ and $k=2,3$. Such results were recently obtained by F.Calegari as an application of overconvergent $p$-adic modular forms. In this paper we present an…

Let $\alpha$ be a fixed quadratic irrational. Consider the Diophantine equation \[ y^a\ =\ q_{N_1} + \cdots + q_{N_K},\quad N_1 \geq \cdots \geq N_{K} \geq 0,\quad a, y \geq 2 \] where $(q_N)_{N\,\geq\,0}$ is the sequence of convergent…

In this paper, an elementary method to find the values of the Riemann Zeta function at even natural numbers, and to find values of a closely related series at odd natural numbers is presented. Another method, specifically for the evaluation…

In this note we investigate the existence of zeros of linear twists of $L$-functions outside of the critical strip. In particular, we show that the Lerch zeta function $L(\lambda,\alpha,s)$ has infinitely many zeros for $1<\sigma<1+\eta$,…

Starting from the symmetrical reflection functional equation of the zeta function, we have found that the sigma values satisfying zeta(s) = 0 must also satisfy both |zeta(s)| = |zeta(1 - s)| and |gamma(s/2)zeta(s)| = |gamma((1 - s)/2)zeta(1…

Hardy's theorem for the Riemann zeta-function $\zeta(s)$ says that it admits infinitely many complex zeros on the line $\Re({s}) = \frac{1}{2}$. In this note, we give a simple proof of this statement which, to the best of our knowledge, is…

We consider the symmetric multiple zeta values in $\mathcal{S}_m$ without modulo $\pi^2$ reduction for indices in which $1$ and $3$ appear alternately. We investigate those values that can be expressed as a polynomial of the Riemann zeta…

Let $d(n)$ be the number of divisors of $n$, let $\gamma$ denote Euler's constant and $$ \Delta(x) := \sum_{n\le x}d(n) - x(\log x + 2\gamma -1) $$ denote the error term in the classical Dirichlet divisor problem, and let $\zeta(s)$ denote…

We present a new and simple proof of Selberg's central limit theorem, according to which $\log |\zeta(\tfrac 12 + it)|$ is approximately normally distributed with mean $0$ and variance $\tfrac 12 \log\log t$.

We study the function $\Delta_k(x):=\sum_{n\leq x} d_k(n) - \mbox{Res}_{s=1} ( \zeta^k(s) x^s/s )$, where $k\geq 3$ is an integer, $d_k(n)$ is the $k$-fold divisor function, and $\zeta(s)$ is the Riemann zeta-function. For a large parameter…

In this paper, we analyze the nontrivial zeros of the Riemann zeta-function using the multidimensional scaling (MDS) algorithm and computational visualization features. The nontrivial zeros of the Riemann zeta-function as well as the…

Because of its relation to the distribution of prime numbers, the Riemann zeta function {\zeta} (s) is one of the most important functions in mathematics. The zeta function is defined by the following formula for any complex number s with…

We show for all $1/2 \le \sigma \le 1$ and $t\ge 3$ that $\zeta(\sigma+it)| \le 76.2 t^{4.45 (1-\sigma)^{3/2}}$, where $\zeta$ is the Riemann zeta function. This significantly improves the previous bounds, where $4.45$ is replaced by…

For an irrational number $\alpha\in\mathbb{R}$ we consider its irrationality measure function $$ \psi_\alpha(x) = \min_{1\le q\le x,\, q\in\mathbb{Z}} \| q\alpha \|. $$ It is known for all irrational numbers $\alpha$ and $\beta$ satisfying…

Levinson and Montgomery proved that the Riemann zeta-function $\zeta(s)$ and its derivative have approximately the same number of non-real zeros left of the critical line. R. Spira showed that $\zeta'(1/2+it)=0$ implies $\zeta(1/2+it)=0$.…

In one of his posthumous papers, conserved in G\"ottingen, Riemann considers the derivatives of $\log\zeta(s)$ at the point $1/2$, giving explicit values for them. Around 2010 we shared Riemann's value of the second derivative with some…

Motivated by the connection to the pair correlation of the Riemann zeros, we investigate the second derivative of the logarithm of the Riemann zeta function, in particular the zeros of this function. Theorem 1 gives a zero-free region.…

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…
