We settle a conjecture of Farmer and Ki in a stronger form. Roughly speaking we show that there is a positive proportion of small gaps between consecutive zeros of the zeta-function $\zeta(s)$ if and only if there is a positive proportion…

In this paper, we study a more general pair correlation function, $F_h(x,T)$, of the zeros of the Riemann zeta function. It provides information on the distribution of larger differences between the zeros.

We study the value-distribution of Dirichlet polynomials on the critical line $\Re(s)=\tfrac{1}{2}$. As a consequence, we prove a corollary on small consecutive gaps between zeros of the Riemann zeta function. We also examine the…

Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis, we improve on previous results by proving there are infinitely many zeros of the Riemann zeta-function whose differences are smaller than 0.50412 times the average spacing. To obtain this result, we…

Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis we show that there exist infinitely many consecutive zeros of the Riemann zeta-function whose gaps are greater than 2.9 times the average spacing.

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…

In 2016, the first-named author introduced a formulation of the Alternative Hypothesis that assumes that consecutive zeros of the Riemann zeta-function are spaced at multiples of half of the average spacing, but does not assume that the…

Montgomery in 1973 introduced the pair correlation method to study the vertical distribution of Riemann zeta-function zeros. This work assumed the Riemann Hypothesis (RH). One striking application was a short proof that at least 2/3 of…

Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis (RH), Montgomery proved a theorem in 1973 concerning the pair correlation of zeros of the Riemann zeta-function and applied this to prove that at least $2/3$ of the zeros are simple. In this paper, we…

In this paper, we introduce the resonance-correlation method to study small gaps between consecutive zeros of the Riemann zeta-function. Our method is based on a synthesis of Montgomery's pair correlation approach and the Montgomery-Odlyzko…

We make explicit an argument of Heath-Brown concerning large and small gaps between nontrivial zeroes of the Riemann zeta-function, $\zeta(s)$. In particular, we provide the first unconditional results on gaps (large and small) which hold…

Assume the Riemann Hypothesis, and let $\gamma^+>\gamma>0$ be ordinates of two consecutive zeros of $\zeta(s)$. It is shown that if $\gamma^+-\gamma < v/ \log \gamma $ with $v<c$ for some absolute positive constant $c$, then the box $$…

Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis (RH), Montgomery proved a theorem concerning pair correlation of zeros of the Riemann zeta-function. One consequence of this theorem is that, assuming RH, at least $67.9\%$ of the nontrivial zeros are simple.…

We prove an extension of the Landau-Gonek formula. As an application we recover unconditionally some of the consequences of a pair correlation estimate that previously was known under the Riemann hypothesis. As one corollary we prove that…

In this paper, we will employ the Opial and Wirtinger type inequalities to derive some conditional and unconditional lower bounds for the gaps between the zeros of the Riemann zeta-function. First, we prove (unconditionally) that the…

We use the asymptotic large sieve, developed by the authors, to prove that if the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis is true, then there exist many Dirichlet L-functions that have a pair of consecutive zeros closer together than 0.37 times…

We introduce a new method to detect the zeros of the Riemann zeta function which is sensitive to the vertical distribution of the zeros. This allows us to prove there are few `half-isolated' zeros. By combining this with classical methods,…

Let $0<\gamma_1\leq \gamma_2 \leq \cdots $ denote the ordinates of nontrivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function with positive imaginary parts. For $c>0$ fixed (but possibly small), $T$ large, and $\gamma_n\leq T$, we call a gap…

Occurrences of very close zeros of the Riemann zeta function are strongly connected with Lehmer pairs and with the Riemann Hypothesis. The aim of the present note is to derive a condition for a pair of consecutive simple zeros of the…

The Alternative Hypothesis concerns a hypothetical and unlikely picture of how zeros of the Riemann zeta function are spaced which one would like to rule out. In the Alternative Hypothesis, the renormalized distance between nontrivial zeros…
