In this paper, we construct a one-dimensional photonic quasicrystal by combining two incommensurate spatial harmonics, where the ratio of their periods is the irrational number \beta. We evaluate the photonic quasicrystal accurately by a…

Finding hidden order within disorder is a common interest in material science, wave physics, and mathematics. The Riemann hypothesis, stating the locations of nontrivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function, tentatively characterizes…

We show that the Riemann hypothesis is true if and only if the measure $$\mu=-\sum_{n=1}^\infty\frac{\Lambda(n)}{\sqrt{n}}(\delta_{\log n}+\delta_{-\log n})+2\cosh(x/2)\,dx$$ is a tempered distribution. In this case it is the Fourier…

Every set $\Lambda\subset R$ such that the sum of $\delta$-measures sitting at the points of $\Lambda$ is a Fourier quasicrystal, is the zero set of an exponential polynomial with imaginary frequencies.

The non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function and the prime numbers can be plotted by a modified von Mangoldt function. The series of non-trivial zeta zeros and prime numbers can be given explicitly by superposition of harmonic waves.…

We study the distribution of values of the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$ on vertical lines $\Re s + i \mathbb{R}$, by using the theory of Hilbert space. We show among other things, that, $\zeta(s)$ has a Fourier expansion in the…

The density distribution in solids is often represented as a sum of Gaussian peaks (or similar functions) centred on lattice sites or via a Fourier sum. Here, we argue that representing instead the $\mathit{logarithm}$ of the density…

In this paper, we propose a general mechanism for the existence of quasicrystals in spatially extended systems (partial differential equations with Euclidean symmetry). We argue that the existence of quasicrystals with higher order…

We use symmetric Poisson-Schwarz formulas for analytic functions $f$ in the half-plane ${Re}(s)>\frac12$ with $\bar{f(\bar{s})}=f(s)$ in order to derive factorisation theorems for the Riemann zeta function. We prove a variant of the…

The Riemann hypothesis states that all nontrivial zeros of the zeta function lie in the critical line $\Re(s)=1/2$. Hilbert and P\'olya suggested that one possible way to prove the Riemann hypothesis is to interpret the nontrivial zeros in…

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…

We present a numerical study of Riemann's formula for the oscillating part of the density of the primes and their powers. The formula is comprised of an infinite series of oscillatory terms, one for each zero of the zeta function on the…

The spatial Fourier spectrum of the electron density distribution in a finite 1D system and the distribution function of electrons over single-particle states are studied in detail to show that there are two universal features in their…

The usefulness of time-frequency analysis methods in the study of quasicrystals was pointed out in a previous paper, where we proved that a tempered distribution $\mu$ on ${\mathbb R}^d$ whose Wigner transform is a measure supported on the…

Quasicrystals are tempered distributions $\mu$ which satisfy symmetric conditions on $\mu$ and $\widehat \mu$. This suggests that techniques from time-frequency analysis could possibly be useful tools in the study of such structures. In…

Let $f$ be an entire almost periodic function with zeros in a horizontal strip of finite width; for example, any exponential polynomial with purely imaginary exponents is such a function. Let $\mu$ be the measure on the set of zeros of $f$…

We propose and investigate a strategy toward a proof of the Riemann Hypothesis based on a spectral realization of its non-trivial zeros. Our approach constructs self-adjoint operators obtained as rank-one perturbations of the spectral…

Using a strategy that may be applied in theory or in experiments, we identify the regime in which a model binary soft matter mixture forms quasicrystals. The system is described using classical density functional theory combined with…

The first explicit realization of the conjecture that phason dynamics leads to self-diffusion in quasicrystals is presented for the icosahedral Ammann tilings. On short time scales, the transport is found to be subdiffusive with the…

Physical properties of scattering amplitudes are mapped to the Riemann zeta function. Specifically, a closed-form amplitude is constructed, describing the tree-level exchange of a tower with masses $m_n^2 = \mu_n^2$, where…
