The main result of the paper is a definition of possible ways of the confirmation of the Riemann hypothesis based on the properties of the vector system of the second approximate equation of the Riemann Zeta function. The paper uses a…

When it comes to partial numerical verification of the Riemann Hypothesis, one crucial part is to verify the completeness of a list of pre-computed zeros. Turing developed such a method, based on an explicit version of a theorem of…

We study the multiplicities of pure motives modulo numerical equivalence, which are defined as scalars comparing the tannakian trace with the ring-theoretic trace. Our general set-up is that of a rigid semi-simple tensor category such that…

We would like to construct a new Grothendieck topology for arithmetic schemes, whose cohomology groups associated with motivic complexes of sheaves are finitely generated and whose Euler characteristics are related to special values of…

We show that if the derivative of the Riemann zeta function has sufficiently many zeros close to the critical line, then the zeta function has many closely spaced zeros. This gives a condition on the zeros of the derivative of the zeta…

Physicists become acquainted with special functions early in their studies. Consider our perennial model, the harmonic oscillator, for which we need Hermite functions, or the Laguerre functions in quantum mechanics. Here we choose a…

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…

A fresh approach to the long debated question is proposed, starting from the GRAM-BACKLUND analytical continuation of the Zeta function (G-B Zeta expression). Consideration is given to the symmetric (even-exponent) and anti-symmetric (odd…

De Bruijn and Newman introduced a deformation of the completed Riemann zeta function $\zeta$, and proved there is a real constant $\Lambda$ which encodes the movement of the nontrivial zeros of $\zeta$ under the deformation. The Riemann…

Several arguments against the truth of the Riemann hypothesis are extensively discussed. These include the Lehmer phenomenon, the Davenport-Heilbronn zeta-function, large and mean values of $|\zeta(1/2+it)|$ on the critical line, and zeros…

Let k be a base field of positive characteristic. Making use of topological periodic cyclic homology, we start by proving that the category of noncommutative numerical motives over k is abelian semi-simple, as conjectured by Kontsevich.…

Let $y\ne 0$ and $C>0$. Under the Riemann Hypothesis, there is a number $T_*>0$ $($depending on $y$ and $C)$ such that for every $T\ge T_*$, both \[ \zeta(\tfrac12+i\gamma)=0 \quad\text{and}\quad\zeta(\tfrac12+i(\gamma+y))\ne 0 \] hold for…

We describe in detail three distinct families of generalized zeta functions built over the (nontrivial) zeros of a rather general arithmetic zeta or L-function, extending the scope of two earlier works that treated the Riemann zeros only.…

In this paper is stablished a characterization of the solutions of the equation: zeta(z) = 0. Then such a characterization is used to give a proof for Riemann is Conjecture.

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 study Weil-etale cohomology, introduced by Lichtenbaum for varieties over finite fields. In the first half of the paper we give an explicit description of the base change from Weil-etale cohomology to etale cohomology. As a consequence,…

We conjecture the full asymptotic expansion of a product of Riemann zeta functions, evaluated at the non-trivial zeros of the zeta function, with shifts added in each argument. By taking derivatives with respect to these shifts, we form a…

The purpose of this book is two fold. (1) To give a systematic account of classical "zero theory" as developed by Jensen, P\'olya, Titchmarsh, Cartwright, Levinson and others. (2) To set forth developments of a more recent nature with a…

The Hilbert-P\'{o}lya conjecture asserts that the imaginary parts of the nontrivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function (the Riemann zeros) are the eigenvalues of a self-adjoint operator (a quantum mechanical Hamiltonian, in the physical…

In a letter to Weierstrass Riemann asserted that the number $N_0(T)$ of zeros of $\zeta(s)$ on the critical line to height $T$ is approximately equal to the total number of zeros to this height $N(T)$. Siegel studied some posthumous papers…
