Results of extensive computations of moments of the Riemann zeta function on the critical line are presented. Calculated values are compared with predictions motivated by random matrix theory. The results can help in deciding between those…
We give a simple proof of a well-known theorem of G\'al and of the recent related results of Aistleitner, Berkes and Seip [1] regarding the size of GCD sums. In fact, our method obtains the asymptotically sharp constant in G\'al's theorem,…
Buraczewski et al (2023) proved a functional limit theorem (FLT) and a law of the iterated logarithm (LIL) for a random Dirichlet series $\sum_{k\geq 2}(\log k)^\alpha k^{-1/2-s}\eta_k$ as $s\to 0+$, where $\alpha>-1/2$ and $\eta_1$,…
We derive differential inequalities and difference inequalities for Riesz means of eigenvalues of the Dirichlet Laplacian, R_{\sigma}(z) := \sum_k{(z -\lambda_k)_+^{\sigma}}. Here ${\lambda_k}_{k=1}^{\infty}$ are the ordered eigenvalues of…
We study the first moment of primitive quadratic Dirichlet $L$-functions. Assuming the Riemann hypothesis and the generalized Lindel\"of hypothesis, we obtain an asymptotic formula at the central point with error $O(X^{1/4+\epsilon})$, and…
Assuming the Riemann hypothesis, we obtain upper and lower bounds for moments of the Riemann zeta-function averaged over the extreme values between its zeros on the critical line. Our bounds are very nearly the same order of magnitude. The…
We study generalizations of some results of Jean-Louis Nicolas regarding the relation between small values of Euler's function $\varphi(n)$ and the Riemann Hypothesis. Among other things, we prove that for $1\leq q\leq 10$ and for $q=12,…
In previous work, the first author obtained conjecturally sharp upper bounds for the joint moments of the $(2k-2h)^{\text{th}}$ power of the Riemann zeta function with the $2h^{\text{th}}$ power of its derivative on the critical line in the…
We study higher uniformity properties of the von Mangoldt function $\Lambda$, the M\"obius function $\mu$, and the divisor functions $d_k$ on short intervals $(x,x+H]$ for almost all $x \in [X, 2X]$. Let $\Lambda^\sharp$ and $d_k^\sharp$ be…
We study the extent to which divisors of a typical integer $n$ are concentrated. In particular, defining the Erd\H{o}s-Hooley $\Delta$-function by $\Delta(n) := \max_t \# \{d | n, \log d \in [t,t+1]\}$, we show that $\Delta(n) \geq (\log…
In this note we give a short and self-contained proof that, for any $\delta > 0$, $\sum_{x \leq n \leq x+x^\delta} \lambda(n) = o(x^\delta)$ for almost all $x \in [X, 2X]$. We also sketch a proof of a generalization of such a result to…
In this note, we extend Euler's transformation formula from the alternating series to more general series. Then we give new expressions for the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$ by the generalized difference operator $\Delta_{c}$, which…
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…
In this work, we study the $k$-means cost function. Given a dataset $X \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$ and an integer $k$, the goal of the Euclidean $k$-means problem is to find a set of $k$ centers $C \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$ such that $\Phi(C, X)…
The second moment of the Riemann zeta-function twisted by a normalized Dirichlet polynomial with coefficients of the form $(\mu \star \Lambda_1^{\star k_1} \star \Lambda_2^{\star k_2} \star \cdots \star \Lambda_d^{\star k_d})$ is computed…
We establish sharp upper bounds for shifted moments of quadratic Dirichlet $L$-function under the generalized Riemann hypothesis. Our result is then used to prove bounds for moments of quadratic Dirichlet character sums.
Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis we obtain an upper bound for the moments of the Riemann zeta-function on the critical line. Our bound is nearly as sharp as the conjectured asymptotic formulae for these moments. The method extends to moments…
Let $t$ be random and uniformly distributed in the interval $[T,2T]$, and consider the quantity $N(t+1/\log T) - N(t)$, a count of zeros of the Riemann zeta function in a box of height $1/\log T$. Conditioned on the Riemann hypothesis, we…
In this article, we establish an asymptotic formula for the eighth moment of the Riemann zeta function, assuming the Riemann hypothesis and a quaternary additive divisor conjecture. This builds on the work of the first author on the sixth…
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,…
