We first give a condition on the parameters $s,w$ under which the Hurwitz zeta function $\zeta(s,w)$ has no zeros and is actually negative. As a corollary we derive that it is nonzero for $w\geq 1$ and $s\in(0,1)$ and, as a particular…

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,…

In this paper, we show that all real zeros of the bilateral Hurwitz zeta function $Z(s,a):=\zeta (s,a) + \zeta (s,1-a)$ with $1/4 \le a \le 1/2$ are on only the non-positive even integers exactly same as in the case of $(2^s-1) \zeta (s)$.…

We consider the problem of whether or not certain mock theta functions vanish at the roots of unity with an odd order. We prove for any such function $f(q)$ that there exists a constant $C>0$ such that for any odd integer $n>C$ the function…

I study the leading root x_0(y) of the partial theta function \Theta_0(x,y) = \sum_{n=0}^\infty x^n y^{n(n-1)/2}, considered as a formal power series. I prove that all the coefficients of -x_0(y) are strictly positive. Indeed, I prove the…

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 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 Theta splitting function $\Theta(s+1)$, a function defined on the positive integers. We study the distribution of this function for sufficiently large values of the integers. As an application we show that…

The main result establishes an estimate for the growth of a real meromorphic function $f$ on the unit disc $\Delta$ such that: (i) at least one of $f$ and $1/f$ has finitely many poles and non-real zeros in $\Delta$; (ii)~$f^{(k)}$ has…

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…

We extend the circle theorem on the zeros of the partition function to a continuum system. We also calculate the exact zeros of the partition function for a finite system where the probability distribution for the order parameter is given…

We give results on zeros of a polynomial of $\zeta(s),\zeta'(s),\ldots,\zeta^{(k)}(s)$. First, we give a zero free region and prove that there exist zeros corresponding to the trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function. Next, we estimate…

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 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…

Let $0<a\leq1, s\in\mathbb{C}$, and $\zeta(s,a)$ be the Hurwitz zeta-function. Recently, T.~Nakamura showed that $\zeta(\sigma,a)$ does not vanish for any $0<\sigma<1$ if and only if $1/2\leq a \leq1$. In this paper, we show that…

We study, on average over f, zeros of the L-functions of primitive weight two forms of level q (fixed). We prove, on the one hand, density theorems for the zeros (similar to the results of Bombieri, Jutila, Motohashi, Selberg in the case of…

The distribution of the zeros of the partition function in the complex temperature plane (Fisher zeros) of the two-dimensional Q-state Potts model is studied for non-integer Q. On $L\times L$ self-dual lattices studied ($L\le8$), no Fisher…

Let $L(s)=\sum_{n=1}^{+\infty}\dfrac{a(n)}{n^s}$ be a Dirichlet series were $a(n)$ is a bounded completely multiplicative function. We prove that if $L(s)$ extends to a holomorphic function on the open half space $\Re s >1-\delta$,…

Let \begin{equation*} A_{q}^{(\alpha)}(a;z) = \sum_{k=0}^{\infty} \frac{(a;q)_{k} q^{\alpha k^2} z^k} {(q;q)_{k}}, \end{equation*} where $\alpha >0,~0<q<1.$ In a paper of Ruiming Zhang, he asked under what conditions the zeros of the entire…

We show that the ordinates of the nontrivial zeros of certain $L-$functions attached to half-integral weight cusp forms are uniformly distributed modulo one.
