This paper shows that, in the critical strip, the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$ have the same set of zeros as $F(s):=\int_0^\infty t^{s-1}(e^t+1)^{-1}dt$, and then discusses the behavior of $F(s)$.

The main aim of this paper is twofold. First we generalize, in a novel way, most of the known non-vanishing results for the derivatives of the Riemann zeta function by establishing the existence of an infinite sequence of regions in the…

This is primarily an overview article on some results and problems involving the classical Hardy function $$ Z(t) := \zeta(1/2+it){\bigl(\chi(1/2+it)\bigr)}^{-1/2}, \quad \zeta(s) = \chi(s)\zeta(1-s). $$ In particular, we discuss the first…

We show that if the derivative of the Riemann zeta function has sufficiently many zeros close to the critical line, then the zeta function has many closely spaced zeros. This gives a condition on the zeros of the derivative of the zeta…

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…

Let $\pi S(t)$ denote the argument of the Riemann zeta-function at the point $s=\tfrac12+it$. Assuming the Riemann hypothesis, we give a new and simple proof of the sharpest known bound for $S(t)$. We discuss a generalization of this bound…

The Hardy function $Z(t)=\zeta(1/2+it)e^{i\theta(t)}$ takes real values for real $t$ and its real zeros are zeros $\zeta(s)$ on the critical line $1/2+it$. After discovering the critical value of the local maximum in 1956, Lehmer formulated…

Let $Z(t):=\zeta\left(\frac{1}{2}+it\right)\chi^{-\frac{1}{2}}\left(\frac{1}{2}+it\right)$ be Hardy's function, where the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$ has the functional equation $\zeta(s)=\chi(s)\zeta(1-s)$. We prove that for any…

While many zeros of the Riemann zeta function are located on the critical line $\Re(s)=1/2$, the non-existence of zeros in the remaining part of the critical strip $\Re(s) \in \, ]0, 1[$ is the main scope to be proven for the Riemann…

Various properties of the Mellin transform function $$ {\cal M}_k(s) := \int_1^\infty Z^k(x)x^{-s}dx $$ are investigated, where $$ Z(t) := \zeta(1/2+it){\bigl(\chi(1/2+it)\bigr)}^{-1/2}, \quad \zeta(s) = \chi(s)\zeta(1-s) $$ is Hardy's…

It is known that we can construct the meromorphic function $Z_k(s)$ associated with the higher derivative of Hardy's $Z$-function. In this paper, we introduce the entire function derived from $Z_k(s)$, a generalisation of the Riemann…

The functional equation for Riemann's Zeta function is studied, from which it is shown why all of the non-trivial, full-zeros of the Zeta function $\zeta (s)$ will only occur on the critical line {$\sigma=1/2$} where {$s=\sigma+I \rho$},…

There are many analytic functions $U(t)$ satisfying $Z(t)=2\Re\bigl\{ e^{i\vartheta(t)}U(t)\bigr\}$. Here, we consider an entire function $\mathop{\mathcal L}(s)$ such that $U(t)=\mathop{\mathcal L}(\frac12+it)$ is one of the simplest among…

Sections of the Hardy $Z$-function are given by $Z_N(t) := \sum_{k=1}^{N} \frac{cos(\theta(t)-ln(k) t) }{\sqrt{k}}$ for any $N \in \mathbb{N}$. Sections approximate the Hardy $Z$-function in two ways: (a) $2Z_{\widetilde{N}(t)}(t)$ is the…

In previous work it was shown that if certain series based on sums over primes of non-principal Dirichlet characters have a conjectured random walk behavior, then the Euler product formula for its $L$-function is valid to the right of the…

The Riemann zeta-function $\zeta(s)$ is a meromorphic complex-valued function of the complex variable $s$ with the unique pole at $s=1$. It plays a central role in the studies of prime numbers. The upper bound in the critical strip $0\le…

We establish the equivalence of conjectures concerning the pair correlation of zeros of $L$-functions in the Selberg class and the variances of sums of a related class of arithmetic functions over primes in short intervals. This extends the…

The secondary zeta function $Z(s)=\sum_{n=1}^\infty\alpha_n^{-s}$, where $\rho_n=\frac12+i\alpha_n$ are the zeros of zeta with $\Im(\rho)>0$, extends to a meromorphic function on the hole complex plane. If we assume the Riemann hypothesis…

We review generalized zeta functions built over the Riemann zeros (in short: "superzeta" functions). They are symmetric functions of the zeros that display a wealth of explicit properties, fully matching the much more elementary Hurwitz…

The celebrated Riemann-Siegel formula compares the Riemann zeta function on the critical line with its partial sums, expressing the difference between them as an expansion in terms of decreasing powers of the imaginary variable $t$. Siegel…
