This paper studies zeta functions of the form $\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \chi(n) n^{-s}$, with $\chi$ a completely multiplicative function taking only unimodular values. We denote by $\sigma(\chi)$ the infimum of those $\alpha$ such that the…

In this paper we study the function G(z) := int{0,infinity} y^{z-1}(1 + \exp(y))^{-1} dy, for z in C. We derive a functional equation that relates G(z) and G(1 - z) for all z in C, and we prove: -- That G and the Riemann Zeta function Zeta…

The meromorphic function $W(s)$ introduced in the Riemann-Zeta function $\zeta(s) = W(s) \zeta(1-s)$ maps the line of $s = 1/2 + it$ onto the unit circle in $W$-space. $|W(s)| = 0$ gives the trivial zeroes of the Riemann-Zeta function…

Normalized exponential sums are entire functions of the form $$ f(z)=1+H_1e^{w_1z}+\cdots+H_ne^{w_nz}, $$ where $H_1,\ldots, H_n\in\C$ and $0<w_1<\ldots<w_n$. It is known that the zeros of such functions are in finitely many vertical strips…

In this paper, we show the following; (1) The periodic zeta function ${\rm{Li}}_s (e^{2\pi ia})$ with $0<a<1/2$ or $1/2 < a <1$ does not vanish on the real line. (2) All real zeros of $Y(s,a):=\zeta (s,a) - \zeta (s,1-a)$, $O(s,a) := -i…

We study the number of the poles of the meromorphic continuation of the dynamical zeta functions $\eta_N$ and $\eta_D$ for several strictly convex disjoint obstacles satisfying non-eclipse condition. We obtain a strip $\{z \in \mathbb C:\:…

For $0 < a \le 1/2$, we define the quadrilateral zeta function $Q(s,a)$ using the Hurwitz and periodic zeta functions and show that $Q(s,a)$ satisfies Riemann's functional equation studied by Hamburger, Heck and Knopp. Moreover, we prove…

A dynamical zeta function $\zeta$ and a transfer operator $\scr L$ are associated with a piecewise monotone map $f$ of the interval $[0,1]$ and a weight function $g$. The analytic properties of $\zeta$ and the spectral properties of $\scr…

In the present paper we give a simple mathematical foundation for describing the zeros of the Selberg zeta functions $Z_X$ for certain very symmetric infinite area surfaces $X$. For definiteness, we consider the case of three funneled…

We prove that the Riemann zeta-function $\zeta(\sigma + it)$ has no zeros in the region $\sigma \geq 1 - 1/(55.241(\log|t|)^{2/3} (\log\log |t|)^{1/3})$ for $|t|\geq 3$. In addition, we improve the constant in the classical zero-free…

In this paper, we study the Dirichlet series that enumerates proper equivalence classes of full-rank sublattices of a given quadratic lattice in a hyperbolic plane -- that is, a nondegenerate isotropic quadratic space of dimension $2$. We…

Let $0 < a \le 1/2$ and define the quadrilateral zeta function by $2Q(s,a) := \zeta (s,a) + \zeta (s,1-a) + {\rm{Li}}_s (e^{2\pi ia}) + {\rm{Li}}_s(e^{2\pi i(1-a)})$, where $\zeta (s,a)$ is the Hurwitz zeta function and ${\rm{Li}}_s…

We investigate a dynamical basis for the Riemann hypothesis (RH) that the non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function lie on the critical line x = 1/2. In the process we graphically explore, in as rich a way as possible, the diversity of…

We introduce multiple versions of L-functions for Witten zeta functions. We study their algebraic and analytic properties. Especially we investigate the existence of zeros at negative integers. These results strongly suggest the universal…

This article considers the positive integers $N$ for which $\zeta_{N}(s) = \sum_{n=1}^{N} n^{-s}$ has zeroes in the half-plane $\Re(s)>1$. Building on earlier results, we show that there are no zeroes for $1\leq N\leq 18$ and for $N=20, 21,…

Make an exponential transformation in the integral formulation of Riemann's zeta-function zeta(s) for Re(s) > 0. Separately, in addition make the substitution s -> 1 - s and then transform back to s again using the functional equation.…

We study the behavior of $r$-fold zeta-functions of Euler-Zagier type with identical arguments $\zeta_r(s,s,\ldots,s)$ on the real line. Our basic tool is an "infinite'' version of Newton's classical identities. We carry out numerical…

On the critical line the conditional distribution of the zeta function's magnitude around zeta zeros exists and predicts the well-known pair correlation between nontrivial zeta zeros. However, this conditional distribution does not exist at…

We study the Ruelle zeta function at zero for negatively curved oriented surfaces with boundary. At zero, the zeta function has a zero and its multiplicity is shown to be determined by the Euler characteristic of the surface. This is shown…

In this article, we introduce a general approach for deriving zero-free half-planes for the Riemann zeta function $\zeta$ by identifying topological vector spaces of analytic functions with specific properties. This approach is applied to…
