We exhibit a connection between the variation of zeros in the Miller basis of modular forms $q^m+O(q^{\ell+1})$ and a logarithmic version $\mathcal{S}_\delta$ of the Szeg\H{o} curve, where $\delta=m/\ell$. When $\delta<0.6194$ we show that…

Consider the approximation $\tilde{Z}_N(s) = \sum_{n=1}^N n^{-s} + \chi(s) \sum_{n=1}^N n^{1-s}$ of the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$, where $\chi(s)$ is the ratio of the gamma functions. This arise from the approximate functional…

In 1973 Montgomery proved, assuming the Riemann Hypothesis (RH), that asymptotically at least 2/3 of zeros of the Riemann zeta-function are simple zeros. In a previous note (arXiv:2511.20059 [math.NT]) we showed how RH can be replaced with…

We introduce a new method to detect the zeros of the Riemann zeta function which is sensitive to the vertical distribution of the zeros. This allows us to prove there are few `half-isolated' zeros. By combining this with classical methods,…

In this note we investigate the existence of zeros of linear twists of $L$-functions outside of the critical strip. In particular, we show that the Lerch zeta function $L(\lambda,\alpha,s)$ has infinitely many zeros for $1<\sigma<1+\eta$,…

For a wide class of Dirichlet series associated to automorphic forms, we show that those without Euler products must have zeros within the region of absolute convergence. For instance, we prove that if f is a classical holomorphic modular…

We present explicit expressions for the Mellin transforms of Laguerre and Hermite functions in terms of a variety of special functions. We show that many of the properties of the resulting functions, including functional equations and…

For $0<\alpha<1$, we study the zeros of the sequence of polynomials $\left\{ P_{m}(z)\right\} _{m=0}^{\infty}$ generated by the reciprocal of $(1-t)^{\alpha}(1-2zt+t^{2})$, expanded as a power series in $t$. Equivalently, this sequence is…

Combining the mollifiers, we exhibit other choices of coefficients that improve the results on large gaps between the zeros of the Riemann zeta-function. Precisely, assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis (GRH), we show that there exist…

We study in detail the zero set of a regular function of a quaternionic or octonionic variable. By means of a division lemma for convergent power series, we find the exact relation existing between the zeros of two octonionic regular…

This analysis which uses new mathematical methods aims at proving the Riemann hypothesis and figuring out an approximate base for imaginary non-trivial zeros of zeta function at very large numbers, in order to determine the path that those…

Computations of Miller and Scheinerman suggest that the vast majority of the zeros appearing in the character table of the symmetric group are of a certain special type. While we cannot prove this, we resolve a conjecture arising in their…

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…

We study the limiting behavior of the zeros of the Euler polynomials. When linearly scaled, they approach a definite curve in the complex plane related to the Szego curve which governs the behavior of the roots of the Taylor polynomials…

We study three special Dirichlet series, two of them alternating, related to the Riemann zeta function. These series are shown to have extensions to the entire complex plane and we find their values at the negative integers (or residues at…

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…

In this paper we obtain new properties of a signal generated by the Riemann zeta-function on the critical line. At the same time we obtain an asymptotic formula for a new class of transcendental integrals connected with the Riemann…

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…

Occurrences of very close zeros of the Riemann zeta function are strongly connected with Lehmer pairs and with the Riemann Hypothesis. The aim of the present note is to derive a condition for a pair of consecutive simple zeros of the…

Our main result is to answer a question of Michel Balazard by giving a Dirichlet series with only one zero in its half-plane of convergence. At the end of the paper we also give several sufficient conditions for the Generalized Riemann…
