The conjecture of Lehmer is proved to be true. The proof mainly relies upon: (i) the properties of the Parry Upper functions $f_{house(\alpha)}(z)$ associated with the dynamical zeta functions $\zeta_{house(\alpha)}(z)$ of the…

The set of Salem numbers is proved to be bounded from below by $\theta_{31}^{-1}= 1.08544\ldots$ where $\theta_{n}$, $ n \geq 2$, is the unique root in $(0,1)$ of the trinomial $-1+x+x^n$. Lehmer's number $1.176280\ldots$ belongs to the…

The reduction modulo $p$ of a family of lacunary integer polynomials, associated with the dynamical zeta function $\zeta_{\beta}(z)$ of the $\beta$-shift, for $\beta > 1$ close to one, is investigated. We briefly recall how this family is…

Let $M(\alpha)$ denote the (logarithmic) Mahler measure of the algebraic number $\alpha$. Dubickas and Smyth, and later Fili and the author, examined metric versions of $M$. The author generalized these constructions in order to associate,…

Occurrences of very close zeros of the Riemann zeta function are strongly connected with Lehmer pairs and with the Riemann Hypothesis. The aim of the present note is to derive a condition for a pair of consecutive simple zeros of the…

We seek to understand how the technical definition of Lehmer pair can be related to more analytic properties of the Riemann zeta function, particularly the location of the zeros of $\zeta^\prime(s)$. Because we are interested in the…

The Mahler measures of some n-variable polynomial families are given in terms of special values of the Riemann zeta function and a Dirichlet L-series, generalizing the results of \cite{L}. The technique introduced in this work also…

This paper provides a complete proof of Simon-Lukic conjecture for orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle. For a probability measure $d\mu = w(\theta) \frac{d\theta}{2\pi} + d\mu_s$ with Verblunsky coefficients…

A. Speiser proved that the Riemann hypothesis is equivalent to the absence of non-real zeros of the derivative of the Riemann zeta-function left of the critical line. His result has been extended by N. Levinson and H.L. Montgomery to the…

The Riemann zeta-function $\zeta(s)$ is a meromorphic complex-valued function of the complex variable $s$ with the unique pole at $s=1$. It plays a central role in the studies of prime numbers. The upper bound in the critical strip $0\le…

In recent years Lichtenbaum has conjectured a description for the special values of Hasse--Weil zeta functions in terms of ``Weil-\'etale cohomology''. In earlier papers we studied a class of foliated dynamical systems which had some…

The Riemann Zeta-Function is the most studied L-function; it's zeroes give information about the prime numbers. We can associate L-functions to a wide array of objects, and in general, the zeroes of these L-functions give information about…

In 1973 Montgomery formulated the pair correlation conjecture, predicting that the local spacing statistics of the nontrivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function coincide with those of eigenvalues of large Hermitian matrices from the…

The Hardy function $Z(t)=\zeta(1/2+it)e^{i\theta(t)}$ takes real values for real $t$ and its real zeros are zeros $\zeta(s)$ on the critical line $1/2+it$. After discovering the critical value of the local maximum in 1956, Lehmer formulated…

Starting from the Euler's identity, the author improved Riemann's results, discovered the relationship between the Riemann Zeta function and the prime function, and obtained two new corollaries based on Riemann hypothesis is tenable. From…

We show that the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis for all Dirichlet L-functions is a consequence of certain conjectural properties of the zeros of the Riemann zeta function. Conversely, we prove that the zeros of $\zeta(s)$ satisfy those…

Let $R=\mathcal{O}_{\Q(\sqrt{d})}$ for $d<0$, squarefree, $d\neq -1,-3$. We prove Lehmer's conjecture for associated reciprocal polynomials of $R$-matrices; that is, any noncyclotomic $R$-matrix has Mahler measure at least…

We give a simple Tauberian proof of the Prime Number Theorem using only elementary real analysis. Hence, the analytic continuation of Riemann's zeta function $\zeta$ and its non-vanishing value on the whole line $\{z\in {\mathbb…

The non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function and the prime numbers can be plotted by a modified von Mangoldt function. The series of non-trivial zeta zeros and prime numbers can be given explicitly by superposition of harmonic waves.…

We review generalized zeta functions built over the Riemann zeros (in short: "superzeta" functions). They are symmetric functions of the zeros that display a wealth of explicit properties, fully matching the much more elementary Hurwitz…
