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 $D$ be a domain in the complex plane, $M$ be an extended real function on $D$. If $f$ is a non-zero holomorphic function on $D$ with an upper constraint $|f|\leq \exp M$ on this domain $D$, then it is natural to expect that there must…

We provide some upper bounds for the Mertens function ($M(n)$: the cumulative sum of the M$\ddot{\mathrm{o}}$bius function) by an approach of statistical mechanics, in which the M$\ddot{\mathrm{o}}$bius function is taken as a particular…

These expository lectures focus on the distribution of zeros of the Riemann zeta function. The topics include the prime number theorem, the Riemann hypothesis, mean value theorems, and random matrix models.

We revisit several hybrid multiplicative-to-additive type functions from a recent preprint article. These functions, $g(n)$ with Dirichlet generating function (DGF) $\zeta(s)^{-1} (1+P(s))^{-1}$ for $\Re(s) > 1$ where $P(s) = \sum_p p^{-s}$…

Let $2 \leq y \leq x$ such that $\beta := \frac{\log x}{\log y} \rightarrow \infty$. Let $\omega_y(n)$ denote the number of distinct prime factors $p$ of $n$ such that $p \leq y$, and let $\mu_y(n) := \mu^2(n)(-1)^{\omega_y(n)}$, where…

In this paper, we generalize the partial fraction decomposition which is fundamental in the theory of multiple zeta values, and prove a relation between Tornheim's double zeta functions of three complex variables. As applications, we give…

In this paper, we will employ the Opial and Wirtinger type inequalities to derive some conditional and unconditional lower bounds for the gaps between the zeros of the Riemann zeta-function. First, we prove (unconditionally) that the…

In 1859, Riemann had announced the following conjecture : the nontrivial roots (zeros) $s=\alpha+i\beta$ of the zeta function, defined by: $$\zeta(s) =\displaystyle \sum_{n=1}^{+\infty}\frac{1}{n^s},\,\mbox{for}\quad \Re(s)>1$$ have real…

We present the first applications of the recently established by us (arXiv:1304.7895; Ukrainian Math. J. - 2014. -66. - P. 371-383) generalized Li's criterion equivalent to the Riemann Hypothesis. This criterion is the statement that the…

In this report, we present a proof of Levinson's theorem, following the ideas of Matthew P. Young in 2010, which states that one-third of the non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function lie on the critical line, i.e. the line Re(s) =…

The GUE Hypothesis, which concerns the distribution of zeros of the Riemann zeta-function, is used to evaluate some integrals involving the logarithmic derivative of the zeta-function. Some connections are shown between the GUE Hypothesis…

In this article, we introduce a recurrence formula which only involves two adjacent values of the Riemann zeta function at integer arguments. Based on the formula, an algorithm to evaluate $\zeta$-values(i.e. the values of Riemann zeta…

Physics is a fertile environment for trying to solve some number theory problems. In particular, several tentative of linking the zeros of the Riemann-zeta function with physical phenomena were reported. In this work, the Riemann operator…

The derivative of the Riemann zeta function was computed numerically on several large sets of zeros at large heights. Comparisons to known and conjectured asymptotics are presented.

The aim of this work is to improve some elementary results regarding both the Deuring-Phenomenon and the Heilbronn-Phenomenon. We will give better estimates regarding both the influence of zeros of the Riemann zeta function on the…

We prove that all the zeros of certain meromorphic functions are on the critical line $\text{Re}(s)=1/2$, and are simple (except possibly when $s=1/2$). We prove this by relating the zeros to the discrete spectrum of an unbounded…

Suppose that the Riemann hypothesis is false and $\rho_{*} = 1/2 + \eta_{*} + i \gamma_{*}$, $\eta_{*} > 0$, is a nontrivial zero of the Riemann $\zeta$-function off the critical line. Under the negation of the Riemann hypothesis for the…

We give simple numerical bounds for $\zeta(s)$, $\vartheta(s)$, $\mathop{\mathcal R}(s)$, $Z(t)$, for use in the numerical computation of these functions. The purpose of the paper is to give bounds for several functions needed in the…

We consider $\omega(n)$ and $\Omega(n)$, which respectively count the number of distinct and total prime factors of $n$. We survey a number of similarities and differences between these two functions, and study the summatory functions…
