Let $\eta$ be a closed real 1-form on a closed Riemannian $n$-manifold $(M,g)$. Let $d_z$, $\delta_z$ and $\Delta_z$ be the induced Witten's type perturbations of the de~Rham derivative and coderivative and the Laplacian, parametrized by…

We show that the analytic continuations of Helson zeta functions $ \zeta_\chi (s)= \sum_1^{\infty}\chi(n)n^{-s} $ can have essentially arbitrary poles and zeroes in the strip $ 21/40 < \Re s < 1 $ (unconditionally), and in the whole…

We consider the zeta function $\zeta\_\Omega$ for the Dirichlet-to-Neumann operator of a simply connected planar domain $\Omega$ bounded by a smooth closed curve.We prove non-negativeness and growth properties for…

Let $\Delta(x)$ denote the error term in the Dirichlet divisor problem, and let $E(T)$ denote the error term in the asymptotic formula for the mean square of $|\zeta(1/2+it)|$. If $E^*(t) := E(t) - 2\pi\Delta^*(t/(2\pi))$ with $\Delta^*(x)…

In 1914, Hardy proved that there are infinitely many non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$ on the critical line Re$(s)=1/2$ using the Jacobi theta relation. In this paper, we first establish a number field analogue of…

We define generalised zeta functions associated to indefinite quadratic forms of signature (g-1,1) -- and more generally, to complex symmetric matrices whose imaginary part has signature (g-1,1) -- and we investigate their properties. These…

Given a positive function $f$ on $(0,\infty)$ and a non-zero real parameter $\theta$, we consider a function $I_f^\theta(A,B,X)=Tr X^*(f(L_AR_B^{-1})R_B)^\theta(X)$ in three matrices $A,B>0$ and $X$. In the literature $\theta=\pm1$ has been…

For $0 < a \le 1$, $s,z \in {\mathbb{C}}$ and $0 < |z|\le 1$, the Hurwitz-Lerch zeta function is defined by $\Phi (s,a,z) := \sum_{n=0}^\infty z^n(n+a)^{-s}$ when $\sigma :=\Re (s) >1$. In this paper, we show that $\Phi (\sigma,a,z) \ne 0$…

We improve the universality theorem of the Riemann zeta-function in short intervals by establishing universality for significantly shorter intervals $[T,T+H]$. Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis, we prove that universality in such short…

For $0<\alpha, \lambda \leq 1$, the Lerch zeta-function is defined by $L(s;\alpha, \lambda)$$:= \sum_{n=0}^\infty e^{2\pi i\lambda n} (n+\alpha)^{-s}$, where $\sigma>1$. In this paper, we prove joint universality for Lerch zeta-functions…

The Argand diagram is used to display some characteristics of the Riemann Zeta function. The zeros of the Zeta function on the complex plane give rise to an infinite sequence of closed loops, all passing through the origin of the diagram.…

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 $1<\sigma<1+\eta$,…

Some computations made about the Riemann Hypothesis and in particular, the verification that zeroes of zeta belong on the critical line and the extension of zero-free region are useful to get better effective estimates of number theory…

The Riemann Hypothesis is not proved yet and this article gives a possible proof for the hypothesis which confirms that the only possible nontrivial zeros of the Riemann zeta-function has its real value equal to 1/2. From the result, the…

We intimate deeper connections between the Riemann zeta and gamma functions than often reported and further derive a new formula for expressing the value of $\zeta(2n+1)$ in terms of zeta at other fractional points. This paper also…

Suppose l=2m+1, m>0. We introduce m "theta-series", [1],...,[m], in Z/2[[x]]. It has been conjectured that the n for which the coefficient of x^n in 1/[i] is 1 form a set of density 0. This is probably always false, but in certain cases,…

We show that for any sufficiently large $T,$ there exists a subinterval of $[T,2T]$ of length at least $2.766 \times \frac{2\pi}{\log{T}},$ in which the function $t \mapsto \zeta(1/2 + it)$ has no zeros.

It is known that local zeta functions associated with real analytic functions can be analytically continued as meromorphic functions to the whole complex plane. In this paper, the case of specific (non-real analytic) smooth functions is…

I study the leading root x_0(y) of the partial theta function \Theta_0(x,y) = \sum_{n=0}^\infty x^n y^{n(n-1)/2}, considered as a formal power series. I prove that all the coefficients of -x_0(y) are strictly positive. Indeed, I prove the…

We study the Lambert series $\mathscr{L}_q(s,x) = \sum_{k=1}^\infty k^s q^{k x}/(1-q^k)$, for all $s \in \mathbb{C}$. We obtain the complete asymptotic expansion of $\mathscr{L}_q(s,x)$ near $q=1$. Our analysis of the Lambert series yields…
