A proposed solution to the Riemann Hypothesis
Riemann sums, a classical method for approximating the definite integral of a function, have been extensively studied in the past. However, their monotonic properties, while still of great importance, particularly in approximation theory…
In this paper, motivated by physical considerations, we introduce the notion of modified Riemann sums of Riemann-Stieltjes integrable functions, show that they converge, and compute them explicitely under various assumptions.
Numerical study of the distribution of the Riemann zeros differences following the work [1] shows the significance of the function for which the prime sum expression is proposed. Computational results related to this definition explored…
Some Open Problems Concerning Orthogonal Polynomials.
We present an elementary problem on analytic polynomials with coefficients $\pm 1$ or in $\{0,\pm 1 \}$ which implies Riemann hypothesis. It is turns out that this problem is a particular case of the weak form of a flat polynomials problem…
In this paper, we consider certain finite sums related to the "largest odd divisor", and we obtain, using simple ideas and recurrence relations, sharp upper and lower bounds for these sums.
We generalize the property that Riemann sums of a continuous function corresponding to equidistant subdivision of an interval converge to the integral of that function, and we give some applications of this generalization.
We continue investigations on the average number of representations of a large positive integer as a sum of given powers of prime numbers. The average is taken over a short interval, whose admissible length depends on whether or not we…
A recent paper of Furdui and Valean proves some results about sums of products of "tails" of the series for the Riemann zeta function. We show how such results can be proved with weaker hypotheses using multiple zeta values, and also show…
In this article, we obtain two interesting general inequalities concerning Riemman sums of convex functions, which in particular, sharpen Alzer's inequality and give a suitable converse for it.
We investigate some extremal problems in Fourier analysis and their connection to a problem in prime number theory. In particular, we improve the current bounds for the largest possible gap between consecutive primes assuming the Riemann…

We solve problem 11585 proposed by B. Burdick, AMM June-July 2011 {\bf 118} (6), p. 558 for the sum of certain products of Riemann zeta function values. We further point out an alternating sum analog, and then present and prove different…
