Properties of four quintic theta functions are developed in parallel with those of the classical Jacobi null theta functions. The quintic theta functions are shown to satisfy analogues of Jacobi's quartic theta function identity and…
The main aim of this paper is twofold. First we generalize, in a novel way, most of the known non-vanishing results for the derivatives of the Riemann zeta function by establishing the existence of an infinite sequence of regions in the…
In this paper we perform a detailed analysis of Riemann's hypothesis, dealing with the zeros of the analytically-extended zeta function. We use the functional equation $\zeta(s) = 2^{s}\pi^{s-1}\sin{(\displaystyle \pi…
Four propositions are considered concerning the relationship between the zeros of two combinations of the Riemann zeta function and the function itself. The first is the Riemann hypothesis, while the second relates to the zeros of a…
An analysis of the zeta and gamma function is presented, using elementary functions like [] and {}, a general formula for the angle of zeta(1/2 + i*n) is found and the same for the gamma function.
On the critical line the conditional distribution of the zeta function's magnitude around zeta zeros exists and predicts the well-known pair correlation between nontrivial zeta zeros. However, this conditional distribution does not exist at…
A proof of the Riemann hypothesis is proposed by relying on the properties of the Mellin transform. The function $\mathfrak{G}_{\eta}\left(t\right)$ is defined on the set $\bar{\mathbb{R}}_+$ of the non-negative real numbers, in term of a…
The central idea of this article is to introduce and prove a special form of the zeta function as proof of Riemann's last theorem. The newly proposed zeta function contains two sub functions, namely $f_1(b,s)$ and $f_2(b,s)$. The unique…
A real number is called simply normal to base $b$ if its base-$b$ expansion has each digit appearing with average frequency tending to $1/b$. In this article, we discover a relation between the frequency that the digit $1$ appears in the…
We formulate a parametrized uniformly absolutely globally convergent series of $\zeta$(s) denoted by Z(s, x). When expressed in closed form, it is given by Z(s, x) = (s -- 1)$\zeta$(s) + 1 x Li s z z -- 1 dz, where Li s (x) is the…
A dynamical zeta function $\zeta$ and a transfer operator $\scr L$ are associated with a piecewise monotone map $f$ of the interval $[0,1]$ and a weight function $g$. The analytic properties of $\zeta$ and the spectral properties of $\scr…
We study the Ruelle zeta function at zero for negatively curved oriented surfaces with boundary. At zero, the zeta function has a zero and its multiplicity is shown to be determined by the Euler characteristic of the surface. This is shown…
This article considers the positive integers $N$ for which $\zeta_{N}(s) = \sum_{n=1}^{N} n^{-s}$ has zeroes in the half-plane $\Re(s)>1$. Building on earlier results, we show that there are no zeroes for $1\leq N\leq 18$ and for $N=20, 21,…
We investigate reciprocals of false theta functions, producing results such as congruences, simple asymptotic bounds, and combinatorial identities. Of particular interest is a connection between $1/\Psi(-q^2,q)$ and the truncated pentagonal…
A discussion involving the evaluation of the sum $\sum_{0<\gamma\le T} |\zeta(1/2+i\gamma)|^2$ is presented, where $\gamma$ denotes imaginary parts of complex zeros of the Riemann zeta-function $\zeta(s)$. Three theorems involving certain…
The alternating zeta function zeta*(s) = 1 - 2^{-s} + 3^{-s} - ... is related to the Riemann zeta function by the identity (1-2^{1-s})zeta(s) = zeta*(s). We deduce the vanishing of zeta*(s) at each nonreal zero of the factor 1-2^{1-s}…
This paper studies zeta functions of the form $\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \chi(n) n^{-s}$, with $\chi$ a completely multiplicative function taking only unimodular values. We denote by $\sigma(\chi)$ the infimum of those $\alpha$ such that the…
The paper considers the Hilbert space $\hat{H}_r$ of real functions summable with the square $L^2(a,b)_r$ on any interval $\{(a,b)_r\}_{r=1}^{\infty}\in \mathbb{R}$. It is shown on the basis of the theorem on zeros of real orthogonal…
The Riemann hypothesis states that all nontrivial zeros of the zeta function lie in the critical line $\Re(s)=1/2$. Hilbert and P\'olya suggested that one possible way to prove the Riemann hypothesis is to interpret the nontrivial zeros in…
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 ${\cal T}_-(s)$,…
