Let $k=\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-3})$, and let $c\in \mathfrak{O}_k$ be a square free algebraic integer such that $c\equiv 1~({\rm mod}~{\langle9\rangle})$. Let $\zeta_{k(c^{1/3})}(s)$ be the Dedekind zeta function of the cubic field $k(c^{1/3})$…

We prove that there exist infinitely many consecutive zeros of the Riemann zeta-function on the critical line whose gaps are greater than $3.18$ times the average spacing. Using a modification of our method, we also show that there are even…

Building on work in \cite{AB24} on the Riemann zeta function at height $T$ off the critical line, we prove an unconditional lower bound on the critical line for real large deviations of the order $V\sim\alpha\log\log T$ for any $\alpha>0.$…

In this paper, we investigate the distribution of $k$-free numbers in a class of $\alpha$-random walks on the integer lattice $\mathbb{Z}$. In these walks, the walker starts from a non-negative integer $r$ and moves to the right by $a$…

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}…

In this short note, we provide a new infinite family of $K_{2, t+1}$-free graphs for each prime power $t$. Using these graphs, we show that it is possible to partition the edges of $K_n$ into parts, such that each part is isomorphic to our…

Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis, we provide explicit upper bounds for moduli of $S(t)$, $S_1(t)$, and $\zeta\left(1/2+\mathrm{i}t\right)$ while comparing them with recently proven unconditional ones. As a corollary we obtain a conditional…

New expansions for some functions related to the Zeta function in terms of the Pochhammer's polynomials are given (coefficients b(k), d(k), d_(k) and d__(k). In some formal limit our expansion b(k) obtained via the alternating series gives…

By combining and improving recent techniques and results, we provide explicit estimates for the error terms $|\pi(x)-\text{li}(x)|$, $|\theta(x)-x|$ and $|\psi(x)-x|$ appearing in the prime number theorem. For example, we show for all…

In 1984, Robin showed that the Riemann Hypothesis for $\zeta$ is equivalent to demonstrating $\sigma(n) < e^\gamma n \log \log n$ for all $n > 5040$. Robin's inequality has since been proven for various infinite families of power-free…

Assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis(GRH), we show that infinitely often consecutive non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta-function differ by at least 3.072 times the average spacing.

We prove lower bounds for the fraction of edges of an $r$-graph which can be covered by the union of $k$ 1-factors. The special case $r=3$ yields some known results for cubic graphs. Furthermore, we introduce the concept of…

Using Parseval's identity for the Fourier coefficients of $x^k$, we provide a new proof that $\zeta(2k)=\dfrac{(-1)^{k+1}B_{2k}(2\pi)^{2k}}{2(2k)!}$.

If $$ \Delta(x) \;:=\; \sum_{n\leqslant x}c_n - Cx\qquad(C>0) $$ denotes the error term in the classical Rankin-Selberg problem, then we obtain a non-trivial upper bound for the mean square of $\Delta(x+U) - \Delta(x)$ for a certain range…

In previous work, the first author obtained conjecturally sharp upper bounds for the joint moments of the $(2k-2h)^{\text{th}}$ power of the Riemann zeta function with the $2h^{\text{th}}$ power of its derivative on the critical line in the…

Assuming the Riemann hypothesis, we prove that $$ N_k(T) = \frac{T}{2\pi}\log \frac{T}{4\pi e} + O_k\left(\frac{\log{T}}{\log\log{T}}\right), $$ where $N_k(T)$ is the number of zeros of $\zeta^{(k)}(s)$ in the region $0<\Im s\le T$. We…

Let $k \geq 3$ and let $L_i(n) = A_in + B_i$ be some linear forms such that $A_i$ and $B_i$ are integers. Define ${\mathcal{P}(n) = \prod_{i=1}^k L_i(n)}$. For each $k$ it is known that $\Omega (\mathcal{P} (n) ) \leq \rho_k$ infinitely…

For $k\geq 1$ an integer and $x\geq 1$ a real number, let $\pi_k(x)$ be the number of integers smaller than $x$ having exactly $k$ distinct prime divisors. Building on recent work of Matom\"aki and Radziwi\l\l, we investigate the asymptotic…

For $k\ge1$, let $R_k(x)$ denote the reciprocal sum up to $x$ of numbers with $k$ prime factors, counted with multiplicity. In prior work, the authors obtained estimates for $R_k(x)$, extending Mertens' second theorem, as well as a…

We consider the error term of the asymptotic formula for the number of pairs of $k$-free integers up to $x$. Our error term improves results by Heath-Brown, Brandes and Dietmann/Marmon. We then extend our results to $r$-tuples of $k$-free…
