Suppose that the Riemann hypothesis is false and $\rho_{*} = 1/2 + \eta_{*} + i \gamma_{*}$, $\eta_{*} > 0$, is a nontrivial zero of the Riemann $\zeta$-function off the critical line. Under the negation of the Riemann hypothesis for the…
Let $0<\gamma_1\leq \gamma_2\leq \ldots$ denote the positive ordinates of the non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta-function. A result first announced by Selberg states that there exist absolute constants $\Theta, \vartheta>0$ such that for…
We study the triple convolution sum of the divisor function given by $$\sum_{n\leq x} d(n)d(n-h)d(n+h)$$ for $h\neq 0$ and $d(n)$ denotes the number of positive divisors of $n$. Based on algebraic and geometric considerations, Browning…
We prove an explicit integral formula for computing the product of two shifted Riemann zeta functions everywhere in the complex plane. We show that this formula implies the existence of infinite families of exact exponential sum identities…
We prove that when $f$ is a Rademacher random multiplicative function for any $\epsilon>0$, then $\sum_{n \leqslant x}\frac{f(n)}{\sqrt{n}} \ll (\log\log(x))^{3/4+\epsilon}$ for almost all $f$. We also show that there exist arbitrarily…
Let $(X_n)_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$ be a sequence of i.i.d. random variables with distribution $\mathbb P(X_1=1)=\mathbb P(X_1=-1)=1/2$. Let $F(\sigma)=\sum_{n=1}^\infty X_nn^{-\sigma}$. We prove that the following holds almost surely…
The Riemann hypothesis, stating that the real part of all non-trivial zero points fo the zeta function must be $\frac{1}{2}$, is one of the most important unproven hypothesises in number theory. In this paper we will proof the Riemann…
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 use a method, first developed for the Riemann zeta-function by Masser in ["Rational values of the Riemann zeta function", Journ. Num. Th. 131 (2011), 2037-2046], to prove a new zero estimate for polynomials in z and 1/Gamma(z). This…
Let $\lambda$ be the Liouville function, defined as $\lambda(n) := (-1)^{\Omega(n)}$ where $\Omega(n)$ is the number of prime factors of $n$ with multiplicity. In 2021, Helfgott and Radziwi{\l}{\l} proved that $$\sum_{n\leq x} \frac{1}{n}…
Let $s(\cdot)$ denote the sum-of-proper-divisors function, that is, $s(n) = \sum_{d\mid n,~d<n}d$. Erd\H{o}s-Granville-Pomerance-Spiro conjectured that for any set $\mathcal{A}$ of asymptotic density zero, the preimage set…
We investigate the distribution of the Riemann zeta-function on the line $\Re(s)=\sigma$. For $\tfrac 12 < \sigma \le 1$ we obtain an upper bound on the discrepancy between the distribution of $\zeta(s)$ and that of its random model,…
In this article, we investigate the existence and multiplicity of solutions to the Robin problem \begin{equation*} \begin{cases} -\Delta u = \lambda f(u) & \text{in } \Omega, \frac{\partial u}{\partial \nu} + \gamma u=0 & \text{on }…
For univalent and normalized functions $f$ the logarithmic coefficients $\gamma_n(f)$ are determined by the formula $\log(f(z)/z)=\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}2\gamma_n(f)z^n$. In the paper \cite{Pon} the authors posed the conjecture that a locally…
Let $\sigma,t\in{\mathbb{R}}$, $s=\sigma+\mathrm{{i}}t$, $\Gamma (s)$ be the Gamma function, $\zeta(s)$ be the Riemann zeta function and $\xi(s):=s(s-1)\pi ^{-s/2}\Gamma(s/2)\zeta(s)$ be the complete Riemann zeta function. We show that…
We provide explicit ranges for $\sigma$ for which the asymptotic formula \begin{equation*} \int_0^T|\zeta(1/2+it)|^4|\zeta(\sigma+it)|^{2j}dt \;\sim\; T\sum_{k=0}^4a_{k,j}(\sigma)\log^k T \quad(j\in\mathbb N) \end{equation*} holds as…
We consider a semilinear Neumann problem with exponential nonlinearity in a smooth bounded domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^2$. We prove that there exists a threshold $\bar{\varepsilon}>0$ such that for all $\varepsilon>\bar{\varepsilon}$,…
Let $\Psi(n):=n\prod_{p | n}(1+\frac{1}{p})$ denote the Dedekind $\Psi$ function. Define, for $n\ge 3,$ the ratio $R(n):=\frac{\Psi(n)}{n\log\log n}.$ We prove unconditionally that $R(n)< e^\gamma$ for $n\ge 31.$ Let $N_n=2...p_n$ be the…
For $r \in \mathbb{R}, r> 1$ and $n \in \mathbb{Z}^+$, the divisor function $\sigma_{-r}$ is defined by $\sigma_{-r}(n) := \sum_{d \vert n} d^{-r}$. In this paper we show the number $C_r$ of connected components of…
Let $\sigma(n)$ denote the sum of the positive divisors of $n$. We prove that for any positive integer $k$, there is a number $m$ for which the equation $\sigma(x)=m$ has exactly $k$ solutions, settling a conjecture of Sierpi\'nski from…
