Let $Z(t)$ be the classical Hardy function in the theory of the Riemann zeta-function. The main result in this paper is that if the Riemann hypothesis is true then for any positive integer $n$ there exists a $t_{n}>0$ such that for…

It is shown explicitly how the sign of Hardy's function $Z(t)$ depends on the parity of the zero-counting function $N(T)$. Two existing definitions of this function are analyzed, and some related problems are discussed.

Using the twisted fourth moment of the Riemann zeta-function we study large gaps between consecutive zeros of the derivatives of Hardy's function $Z(t)$, improving upon previous results of Conrey and Ghosh [J. London Math. Soc. 32 (1985),…

Hardy's theorem for the Riemann zeta-function $\zeta(s)$ says that it admits infinitely many complex zeros on the line $\Re({s}) = \frac{1}{2}$. In this note, we give a simple proof of this statement which, to the best of our knowledge, is…

Levinson and Montgomery proved that the Riemann zeta-function $\zeta(s)$ and its derivative have approximately the same number of non-real zeros left of the critical line. R. Spira showed that $\zeta'(1/2+it)=0$ implies $\zeta(1/2+it)=0$.…

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…

If $Z(t) = \chi^{-1/2}(1/2+it)\zeta(1/2+it)$ denotes Hardy's function, where $\zeta(s) = \chi(s)\zeta(1-s)$ is the functional equation of the Riemann zeta-function, then it is proved that $$ \int_0^T Z(t)\d t = O_\e(T^{1/4+\e}). $$

In 1914, Hardy proved that infinitely many non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function lie on the critical line using the transformation formula of the Jacobi theta function. Recently the first author obtained an integral representation…

Update: This result was obtained by Milinovich with a better error term. He used $\zeta'(s)$, but we considered $Z'(t)$. We corrected a typo in the main theorem. We consider the sum of the square of the derivative of Hardy's $Z$-function…

In this article, we show that the Riemann hypothesis for an $L$-function $F$ belonging to the Selberg class implies that all the derivatives of $F$ can have at most finitely many zeros on the left of the critical line with imaginary part…

Let as usual $Z(t) = \zeta(1/2+it)\chi^{-1/2}(1/2+it)$ denote Hardy's function, where $\zeta(s) = \chi(s)\zeta(1-s)$. Assuming the Riemann hypothesis upper and lower bounds for some integrals involving $Z(t)$ and $Z'(t)$ are proved. It is…

Recently, Dixit et al. established a very elegant generalization of Hardy's Theorem concerning the infinitude of zeros that the Riemann zeta function possesses at its critical line. By introducing a general transformation formula for the…

Let $\zeta(s)$ and $Z(t)$ be the Riemann zeta function and Hardy's function respectively. We show asymptotic formulas for $\int_0^T Z(t)\zeta(1/2+it)dt$ and $\int_0^T Z^2(t) \zeta(1/2+it)dt$. Furthermore we derive an upper bound for…

In this paper, we introduce a novel variational framework rooted in algebraic geometry for the analysis of the Hardy $Z$-function. Our primary contribution lies in the definition and exploration of $\Delta_n(\overline{a})$, a newly devised…

In these lectures we first review the important properties of the Riemann $\zeta$-function that are necessary to understand the nature and importance of the Riemann hypothesis (RH). In particular this first part describes the analytic…

Let $Z^{(k)}(t)$ be the $k$-th derivative of Hardy's $Z$-function. The numerics seem to suggest that if $k$ and $\ell$ have the same parity, then the zeros of $Z^{(k)}(t)$ and $Z^{(\ell)}(t)$ come in pairs which are very close to each…

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 ${\cal T}_-(s)$,…

In 1914, Hardy proved that there are infinitely many non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$ on the critical line Re$(s)=1/2$ using the Jacobi theta relation. In this paper, we first establish a number field analogue of…

In this paper we obtain new complete hybrid formula for corresponding class of $\zeta$-factorization formulas. We demonstrate that this formula is the synergetic one. Namely, this one describes the cooperation between some class of…

We investigate the distribution of positive and negative values of Hardy's function $$ Z(t) := \zeta(1/2+it){\chi(1/2+it)}^{-1/2}, \quad \zeta(s) = \chi(s)\zeta(1-s). $$ In particular we prove that $$ \mu\bigl(I_{+}(T,T)\bigr) \;\gg T\;…
