We introduce a "resonance" method to produce large values of $|\zeta(1/2+it)|$ and large and small central values of $L$-functions.

Let $S(t)$ denote the argument of the Riemann zeta-function, defined as $$ S(t)=\dfrac{1}{\pi}\,\Im\log\zeta(1/2+it). $$ Assuming the Riemann hypothesis, we prove that $$ S(t)=\Omega_{\pm}\bigg(\dfrac{\log t\log\log\log t}{\log\log…

Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis, we provide explicit upper bounds for moduli of $S(t)$, $S_1(t)$, and $\zeta\left(1/2+\mathrm{i}t\right)$ while comparing them with recently proven unconditional ones. As a corollary we obtain a conditional…

In recent work, Fyodorov and Keating conjectured the maximum size of $|\zeta(1/2+it)|$ in a typical interval of length O(1) on the critical line. They did this by modelling the zeta function by the characteristic polynomial of a random…

In this article we prove an explicit sub-Weyl bound for the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$ on the critical line $s = 1/2 + it$. In particular, we show that $|\zeta(1/2 + it)| \le 66.7\, t^{27/164}$ for $t \ge 3$. Combined, our results…

Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis, we provide effective upper and lower estimates for $\left|\zeta(s)\right|$ right to the critical line. As an application we make explicit Titchmarsh's conditional bound for the Mertens function and…

It is proved that if $T$ is sufficiently large, then uniformly for all positive integers $\ell \leqslant (\log T) / (\log_2 T)$, we have \begin{equation*} \max_{T\leqslant t\leqslant 2T}\left|\zeta^{(\ell)}\Big(1+it\Big)\right| \geqslant…

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)…

We consider a model of the Riemann zeta function on the critical axis and study its maximum over intervals of length $(\log T)^{\theta}$, where $\theta$ is either fixed or tends to zero at a suitable rate. It is shown that the deterministic…

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…

We derive explicit upper bounds for the Riemann zeta-function $\zeta(\sigma + it)$ on the lines $\sigma = 1 - k/(2^k - 2)$ for integer $k \ge 4$. This is used to show that the zeta-function has no zeroes in the region $$\sigma > 1 -…

For a fixed integer $k\ge 3$ and fixed $1/2 < \sigma > 1$ we consider $$ \int_1^T |\zeta(\sigma + it)|^{2k}dt = \sum_{n=1}^\infty d_k^2(n)n^{-2\sigma}T + R(k,\sigma;T), $$ where $R(k,\sigma;T) = o(T) (T\to\infty)$ is the error term in the…

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…

We consider the real part $\Re(\zeta(s))$ of the Riemann zeta-function $\zeta(s)$ in the half-plane $\Re(s) \ge 1$. We show how to compute accurately the constant $\sigma_0 = 1.19\ldots$ which is defined to be the supremum of $\sigma$ such…

We prove a lower bound on the supremum of the function $S_1(T)$ on short intervals, defined by the integration of the argument of the Riemann zeta-function. The same type of result on the supremum of $S(T)$ have already been obtained by…

In this paper we provide an explicit bound for $|\zeta(1+it)|$ in the form of $|\zeta(1+it)|\leq \min\left(\log t, \frac{1}{2}\log t+1.93, \frac{1}{5}\log t+44.02 \right)$. This improves on the current best-known explicit bound of…

Improving a result of N. Levinson, we exhibit large and small values of $|\zeta(1+it)|$.

Montgomery's pair correlation conjecture predicts the asymptotic behavior of the function $N(T,\beta)$ defined to be the number of pairs $\gamma$ and $\gamma'$ of ordinates of nontrivial zeros of the Riemann zeta-function satisfying…

We prove a lower bound on the maximum of the Riemann zeta function in a typical short interval on the critical line. Together with the upper bound from the previous work of the authors, this implies tightness of $$ \max_{|h|\leq…

We investigate the distribution of the Riemann zeta-function on the line $\Re(s)=\sigma$. For $\tfrac 12 < \sigma \le 1$ we obtain an upper bound on the discrepancy between the distribution of $\zeta(s)$ and that of its random model,…
