We derive precise upper bounds for the maximum of the Riemann zeta function on a typical short interval of the critical line. We show that for fixed $\theta\in(-1,0]$, large $T$, and $y\geq 2$ satisfying $y=O(\log\log T/\log\log\log T)$,…

We prove a lower bound on the maximum of the Riemann zeta function in a typical short interval on the critical line. Together with the upper bound from the previous work of the authors, this implies tightness of $$ \max_{|h|\leq…

We prove the leading order of a conjecture by Fyodorov, Hiary and Keating, about the maximum of the Riemann zeta function on random intervals along the critical line. More precisely, as $T \rightarrow \infty$ for a set of $t \in [T, 2T]$ of…

In recent work, Fyodorov and Keating conjectured the maximum size of $|\zeta(1/2+it)|$ in a typical interval of length O(1) on the critical line. They did this by modelling the zeta function by the characteristic polynomial of a random…

A recent conjecture of Fyodorov--Hiary--Keating states that the maximum of the absolute value of the Riemann zeta function on a typical bounded interval of the critical line is $\exp\{\log \log T -\frac{3}{4}\log \log \log T+O(1)\}$, for an…

In the present paper, we show that under the Riemann hypothesis, and for fixed $h, \epsilon > 0$, the supremum of the real and the imaginary parts of $\log \zeta (1/2 + it)$ for $t \in [UT -h, UT + h]$ are in the interval $[(1-\epsilon)…

We investigate the ``partition function'' integrals $\int_{-1/2}^{1/2} |\zeta(1/2 + it + ih)|^2 dh$ for the critical exponent 2, and the local maxima $\max_{|h| \leq 1/2} |\zeta(1/2 + it + ih)|$, as $T \leq t \leq 2T$ varies. In particular,…

Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis, we show that for $k>0$ $$ \frac{1}{T}\text{meas}\Big\{t\in [T,2T]:|\zeta(1/2+{\rm i} t)|>(\log T)^k\Big\}\leq C_k \frac{(\log T)^{-k^2}}{\sqrt{\log\log T}}, $$ where $C_k=\exp(e^{ck})$ for some absolute…

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…

Let $S(t) = \frac{1}{\pi}\Im \log\zeta\left(\frac{1}{2}+it\right)$. We prove an unconditional lower bound on the measure of the sets $\{t\in [T,2T] \colon S(t) \geq V\}$ for $\sqrt{\log\log T} \leq V \ll \left(\frac{\log T}{\log \log…

We consider a model of the Riemann zeta function on the critical axis and study its maximum over intervals of length $(\log T)^{\theta}$, where $\theta$ is either fixed or tends to zero at a suitable rate. It is shown that the deterministic…

Let $t$ be random and uniformly distributed in the interval $[T,2T]$, and consider the quantity $N(t+1/\log T) - N(t)$, a count of zeros of the Riemann zeta function in a box of height $1/\log T$. Conditioned on the Riemann hypothesis, we…

We show that as $T\to \infty$, for all $t\in [T,2T]$ outside of a set of measure $\mathrm{o}(T)$, $$ \int_{-(\log T)^{\theta}}^{(\log T)^{\theta}} |\zeta(\tfrac 12 + \mathrm{i} t + \mathrm{i} h)|^{\beta} \mathrm{d} h = (\log…

Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis, we obtain an upper bound for the 2k-th moment of the derivative of the Riemann zeta-function averaged over the non-trivial zeros of $\zeta(s)$ for every positive integer k. Our bounds are nearly as sharp as…

We investigate the extreme values of the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$. On the 1-line, we obtain a lower bound evaluation $$\max_{t\in[1,T]}|\zeta(1+\i t)|\ge {\rm e}^\gamma(\log_2T+\log_3T+c),$$ with an effective constant $c$ which…

We investigate the relationship between the maximum of the zeta function on the 1-line and the maximal order of $S(t)$, the error term in the number of zeros up to height $t$. We show that the conjectured upper bounds on $S(t)$ along with…

Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis we obtain an upper bound for the moments of the Riemann zeta-function on the critical line. Our bound is nearly as sharp as the conjectured asymptotic formulae for these moments. The method extends to moments…

Assuming the Riemann hypothesis, we obtain upper and lower bounds for moments of the Riemann zeta-function averaged over the extreme values between its zeros on the critical line. Our bounds are very nearly the same order of magnitude. The…

This is the text to accompany my Bourbaki seminar from 30th March 2019, on the maximum size of the Riemann zeta function in "almost all" intervals of length 1 on the critical line. It surveys the conjecture of Fyodorov--Hiary--Keating on…

Let $\alpha \in (1/2,1)$ be fixed. We prove that $$ \max_{0 \leq t \leq T} |\zeta(\alpha+it)| \geq \exp\left(\frac{c_\alpha (\log T)^{1-\alpha}}{(\log \log T)^\alpha}\right) $$ for all sufficiently large $T$, where we can choose $c_\alpha =…
