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…

Let $\vfi$ be Euler's function, $\ga$ be Euler's constant and $N_k$ be the product of the first $k$ primes. In this article, we consider the function $c(n) =(n/\vfi(n)-e^\ga\log\log n)\sqrt{\log n}$. Under Riemann's hypothesis, it is proved…

A detailed, internal symmetry exists between individual terms $n^{-s}$, where $n \in P$ is less than a particular value $n_p$, and sums over conjugate regions consisting of adjoining steps $n$ greater than $n_p$. The boundaries of the…

The Riemann Hypothesis is a conjecture made in 1859 by the great mathematician Riemann that all the complex zeros of the zeta function $\zeta(s)$ lie on the `critical line' ${Rl} s= 1/2$. Our analysis shows that the assumption of the truth…

It is known by a formula of Hasse-Sondow that the Riemann zeta function is given, for any $ s=\sigma+it \in \mathbb{C}$, by $ \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} \widetilde{A}(n,s)$ where $$ \widetilde{A}(n,s):=\frac{1}{2^{n+1}(1-2^{1-s})} \sum_{k=0}^n…

We investigate the large values of the derivatives of the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$ on the 1-line. We give a larger lower bound for $\max_{t\in[T,2T]}|\zeta^{(\ell)}(1+{\rm i} t)|$, which improves the previous result established by…

We establish a Brownian extension to Selberg's central limit theorem for the Riemann zeta function. This implies various limiting distributions for $\zeta$, including an analogue of the reflection principle for the maximum of the Brownian…

We present a variety of series representations of the Stieltjes and related constants, the Stieltjes constants being the coefficients of the Laurent expansion of the Hurwitz zeta function zeta(s,a) about s=1. Additionally we obtain series…

First part of this paper was published in CEJM (2)(4) (2004), 1-15. It is proved now that $$ \int_0^T|E^*(t)|^5{\rm d}t \ll_\epsilon T^{2+\epsilon}. $$ Here $$ E^*(t) = E(t) - 2\pi\Delta^*(t/2\pi), \Delta^*(x) = - \Delta(x) +2\Delta(2x) -…

This paper studies combinations of the Riemann zeta function, based on one defined by P.R. Taylor, which was shown by him to have all its zeros on the critical line. With a rescaled complex argument, this is denoted here by ${\cal T}_-(s)$,…

In this expository article, we review some of the ideas behind the work of Heath-Brown (D.~R. Heath-Brown, {\em Fractional moments of the Riemann Zeta Function}, J. Lond. Math. Soc., (2), {\bf 24}, no.1, (1981), 65--78) on upper and lower…

We report on some properties of the $\xi(s)$ function and its value on the critical line, $\Xi(t)=\xi\left(\tfrac{1}{2}+it\right)$. First, we present some identities that hold for the log derivatives of a holomorphic function. We then…

Let $\zeta(.)$ denote the Riemann zeta function and let $a(.)$ and $A(.)$ respectively denote a multiplicative function and its corresponding summatory function. We consider the correlation $$ \langle a(n)A(n-1) \rangle (T) =…

The Riemann hypothesis is equivalent to the Li criterion governing a sequence of real constants, that are certain logarithmic derivatives of the Riemann xi function evaluated at unity. We investigate a related set of constants c_n, n =…

Let $\mathop{\mathcal R}(s)$ be the function related to $\zeta(s)$ found by Siegel in the papers of Riemann. In this paper we obtain the main terms of the mean values \[\frac{1}{T}\int_0^T |\mathop{\mathcal…

We establish a uniform upper estimate for the values of zeta(s)/zeta(s+A), 0<= A, on the critical line (conditionally on the Riemann Hypothesis). We use this to give a variant, purely complex analytic, to Baez-Duarte's proof of a…

We consider the Riesz and Hardy-Littlewood wave i.e. a ``critical function'' whose behaviour is concerned with the possible truth of the Riemann Hypothesis (RH). The function is studied numerically for the case alpha = 15/2 and beta = 4 in…

We address an interesting question raised by Dos Santos Ferreira, Kenig and Salo about regions ${\mathcal R}_g\subset {\mathbb C}$ for which there can be uniform $L^{\frac{2n}{n+2}}\to L^{\frac{2n}{n-2}}$ resolvent estimates for…

This article proves the bound $|\zeta(\frac{1}{2} + it)|\leq 0.732 t^{\frac{1}{6}} \log t$ for $t \geq 2$, which improves on a result by Cheng and Graham. We also show that $|\zeta(\frac{1}{2}+it)|\leq 0.732 |3.3081+it|^{\frac{1}{6}} \log…

Let $\mathcal{P}$ be the set of all primes and $\psi(n)=n\prod_{n\in \mathcal{P},p|n}(1+1/p)$ be the Dedekind psi function. We show that the Riemann hypothesis is satisfied if and only if $f(n)=\psi(n)/n-e^{\gamma} \log \log n <0$ for all…
