The two-dimensional Epstein zeta function formulated on a rectangular lattice with spacings $a_x=1$ and $a_y=\Delta$, $\zeta^{(2)}(s,\Delta) = \frac{1}{2} \sum_{j,k} (j^2+\Delta^2 k^2)^{-s}$ $(\Re(s)>1)$ where the sum goes over all integers…

The Hardy-Littlewood maximal function $\mathcal{M}$ and the trigonometric function $\sin{x}$ are two central objects in harmonic analysis. We prove that $\mathcal{M}$ characterizes $\sin{x}$ in the following way: let $f \in…

Zeros of two-dimensional sums of the Epstein zeta type over rectangular lattices of the type investigated by Hejhal and Bombieri in 1987 are considered, and in particular a sum first studied by Potter and Titchmarsh in 1935. These latter…

For $0 < a \le 1/2$, we define the quadrilateral zeta function $Q(s,a)$ using the Hurwitz and periodic zeta functions and show that $Q(s,a)$ satisfies Riemann's functional equation studied by Hamburger, Heck and Knopp. Moreover, we prove…

A discussion involving the evaluation of the sum $$\sum_{T<\g\le T+H}|\zeta(1/2+i\gamma)|^2$$ and some related integrals is presented, where $\gamma\,(>0)$ denotes imaginary parts of complex zeros of the Riemann zeta-function $\zeta(s)$. It…

Let $\alpha>0$ be a constant, let $\ell\ge0$ be an integer, and let $\Gamma(z)$ denote the classical Euler gamma function. With the help of the integral representation for the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(z)$, by virtue of a monotonicity…

We study the horizontal distribution of zeros of $\zeta'(s)$ which are denoted as $\rho'=\beta'+i\gamma'$. We assume the Riemann hypothesis which implies $\beta'\geqslant1/2$ for any non-real zero $\rho'$, equality being possible only at a…

We examine the behaviour of the zeros of the real and imaginary parts of $\xi(s)$ on the vertical line $\Re s = 1/2+\lambda$, for $\lambda \neq 0$. This can be rephrased in terms of studying the zeros of families of entire functions $A(s) =…

The functional equations of the Riemann zeta function, the Hurwitz zeta function, and the Lerch zeta function have been well known for a long time, and there is great importance in studying these zeta functions. For example, fundamental…

The Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$ is defined as the infinite sum $\sum_{n=1}^\infty n^{-s}$, which converges when ${\rm Re}\,s>1$. The Riemann hypothesis asserts that the nontrivial zeros of $\zeta(s)$ lie on the line ${\rm Re}\,s=…

Let $\Delta(x)$ denote the error term in the Dirichlet divisor problem, and $E(T)$ the error term in the asymptotic formula for the mean square of $|\zeta(1/2+it)|$. If $E^*(t) = E(t) - 2\pi\Delta^*(t/2\pi)$ with $\Delta^*(x) = -\Delta(x) +…

A. Speiser proved that the Riemann hypothesis is equivalent to the absence of non-real zeros of the derivative of the Riemann zeta-function left of the critical line. His result has been extended by N. Levinson and H.L. Montgomery to the…

The Conjecture of Lehmer is proved to be true. The proof mainly relies upon: (i) the properties of the Parry Upper functions $f_{\house{\alpha}}(z)$ associated with the dynamical zeta functions $\zeta_{\house{\alpha}}(z)$ of the…

For a fixed integer $k\ge 3$ and fixed $1/2 < \sigma > 1$ we consider $$ \int_1^T |\zeta(\sigma + it)|^{2k}dt = \sum_{n=1}^\infty d_k^2(n)n^{-2\sigma}T + R(k,\sigma;T), $$ where $R(k,\sigma;T) = o(T) (T\to\infty)$ is the error term in the…

In this paper we introduce the atomic Hardy space $\mathcal{H}^1((0,\infty),\gamma_\alpha)$ associated with the non-doubling probability measure $d\gamma_\alpha(x)=\frac{2x^{2\alpha+1}}{\Gamma(\alpha+1)}e^{-x^2}dx$ on $(0,\infty)$, for…

We prove that the Riemann zeta-function is not universal on the critical line by using the fact that the Hardy Z-function is real, and some elementary considerations. This is a related to a recent result of Garunkstis and Steuding. We also…

The series for the zeta function does not converge on the critical line but the function \[G(t)=\sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{1}{n^{\frac12+it}}\frac{t}{2\pi n^2+t}\] satisfies $Z(t)=2\Re\{e^{i\vartheta(t)}G(t)\}+O(t^{-\frac56+\varepsilon})$. So…

We investigate the extreme values of the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$. On the 1-line, we obtain a lower bound evaluation $$\max_{t\in[1,T]}|\zeta(1+\i t)|\ge {\rm e}^\gamma(\log_2T+\log_3T+c),$$ with an effective constant $c$ which…

Let $\mathscr{H}^2$ denote the Hardy space of Dirichlet series $f(s) = \sum_{n\geq1} a_n n^{-s}$ with square summable coefficients and suppose that $\varphi$ is a symbol generating a composition operator on $\mathscr{H}^2$ by…

It is well known that the distribution of the prime numbers plays a central role in number theory. It has been known, since Riemann's memoir in 1860, that the distribution of prime numbers can be described by the zero-free region of the…
