The period polynomial $r_f(z)$ for an even weight $k\geq 4$ newform $f\in S_k(\Gamma_0(N))$ is the generating function for the critical values of $L(f,s)$. It has a functional equation relating $r_f(z)$ to $r_f\left(-\frac{1}{Nz}\right)$.…

The period polynomial $r_f(z)$ for a weight $k \geq 3$ newform $f \in S_k(\Gamma_0(N),\chi)$ is the generating function for special values of $L(s,f)$. The functional equation for $L(s, f)$ induces a functional equation on $r_f(z)$. Jin,…

We consider the period polynomials $r_f(z)$ associated with cusp forms $f$ of weight $k$ on all of $\mathrm{SL}_2\left( \mathbb{Z} \right)$, which are generating functions for the critical $L$-values of the modular $L$-function associated…

For each positive integer n, we determine the set of symmetric functions f for which the congruence f(p/1,p/2,...,p/(p-1)) \equiv 0 mod p^n holds for all sufficiently large primes p. Our determination is conditional on a conjecture…

Answering problems of Manin, we use the critical $L$-values of even weight $k\geq 4$ newforms $f\in S_k(\Gamma_0(N))$ to define zeta-polynomials $Z_f(s)$ which satisfy the functional equation $Z_f(s)=\pm Z_f(1-s)$, and which obey the…

This paper studies combinations of the Riemann zeta function, based on one defined by P.R. Taylor, which was shown by him to have all its zeros on the critical line. With a rescaled complex argument, this is denoted here by ${\cal T}_-(s)$,…

There have been a number of recent works on the theory of period polynomials and their zeros. In particular, zeros of period polynomials have been shown to satisfy a "Riemann Hypothesis" in both classical settings and for cohomological…

The symmetric power L-function of the hyper-Kloosterman family is a rational function over the integers. Its degree and complex absolute values of its zeros and poles are now known through the work of Fu and Wan. The purpose of this paper…

Let $f \in S_k(\Gamma_0(N))$ be a newform, and let $r_f^{\pm}(X)$ denote its corresponding even and odd period polynomials. For sufficiently large level and weight, we show that the zeros of $r_f^{\pm}(X)$ all lie on the circle $|X| =…

Let $f$ be a holomorphic cusp form of even weight $k$ for the modular group $SL(2,\mathbb{Z})$, which is assumed to be a common eigenfunction for all Hecke operators. For positive integer $n$, let $\text{Sym}^n(f)$ be the symmetric nth…

Let $K$ be a field of characteristic zero and suppose that $f:\mathbb{N}\to K$ satisfies a recurrence of the form $$f(n)\ =\ \sum_{i=1}^d P_i(n) f(n-i),$$ for $n$ sufficiently large, where $P_1(z),...,P_d(z)$ are polynomials in $K[z]$.…

We study the signs of the Fourier coefficients of a newform. Let $f$ be a normalized newform of weight $k$ for $\Gamma_0(N)$. Let $a_f(n)$ be the $n$th Fourier coefficient of $f$. For any fixed positive integer $m$, we study the…

This paper compares the distribution of zeros of the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$ with those of a symmetric combination of zeta functions, denoted ${\cal T}_+(s)$, known to have all its zeros located on the critical line $\Re(s)=1/2$.…

The Riemann hypothesis is identified with zeros of ${\cal N}=4$ supersymmetric gauge theory four-point amplitude. The zeros of the $\zeta(s)$ function are identified with th complex dimension of the spacetime, or the dimension of the…

Given any non-polynomial $G$-function $F(z)=\sum\_{k=0}^\infty A\_k z^k$ of radius of convergence $R$, we consider the $G$-functions $F\_n^{[s]}(z)=\sum\_{k=0}^\infty \frac{A\_k}{(k+n)^s}z^k$ for any integers $s\geq 0$ and $n\geq 1$. For…

In this paper, some new results are reported for the study of Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$ in the critical strip $0<Re(s)<1$, such as $\zeta(s)$ expressed in a generalized Euler product only involving prime numbers. Particularly, some…

For $S_k$, the space of cusp forms of weight $k$ for the full modular group, we first introduce periods on $S_k$ associated to symmetric square $L$-functions. We then prove that for a fixed natural number $n$, if $k$ is sufficiently large…

A proof of the Riemann's hypothesis (RH) about the non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta-function is presented. It is based on the construction of an infinite family of operators D^{(k,l)} in one dimension, and their respective…

For an analytic function $f(z)=\sum_{k=0}^\infty a_kz^k$ on a neighbourhood of a closed disc $D\subset {\bf C}$, we give assumptions, in terms of the Taylor coefficients $a_k$ of $f$, under which the number of intersection points of the…

Erd\"{o}s and Niven proved in 1946 that for any positive integers $m$ and $d$, there are at most finitely many integers $n$ for which at least one of the elementary symmetric functions of $1/m, 1/(m+d), ..., 1/(m+(n-1)d)$ are integers.…
