By using an analogy with the case of very close zeros symmetric with respect to the critical line of the Davenport and Heilbronn function, we study the conformal mapping of L-functions in a neighborhood of a hypothetical double zero and…
This paper has two main results, which relate to a criteria for the Riemann hypothesis via the family of functions $\Theta_\omega(z)=\xi(1/2-\omega-iz)/\xi(1/2+\omega-iz)$, where $\omega>0$ is a real parameter and $\xi(s)$ is the Riemann…
The Riemann Xi-function Xi(t) belongs to a family of entire functions which can be expanded in a uniformly convergent series of symmetrized Pochhammer polynomials depending on a real scaling parameter beta. It can be shown that the…
The divisor theory of graphs views a finite connected graph $G$ as a discrete version of a Riemann surface. Divisors on $G$ are formal integral combinations of the vertices of $G$, and linear equivalence of divisors is determined by the…
Recently, we have established the generalized Li criterion equivalent to the Riemann hypothesis, viz. demonstrated that the sums over all non-trivial Riemann function zeroes k_n,a=Sum_(/rho)(1-(1-((/rho-a)/(/rho+a-1))^n) for any real a not…
We show that if the Riemann Hypothesis is true, then in a region containing most of the right-half of the critical strip, the Riemann zeta-function is well approximated by short truncations of its Euler product. Conversely, if the…
We prove that Riemann's xi function is strictly increasing (respectively, strictly decreasing) in modulus along every horizontal half-line in any zero-free, open right (respectively, left) half-plane. A corollary is a reformulation of the…
This paper proposes a reformulation of the Riemann Xi function in order to investigate its properties. The reformulated function, which depicts the Xi function as the weighted sum of incomplete gamma functions, is validated, and a number of…
We derive general structure and rigidity theorems for submetries $f: M \to X$, where $M$ is a Riemannian manifold with sectional curvature $\sec M \ge 1$. When applied to a non-trivial Riemannian submersion, it follows that $diam X \leq…
We prove a Riemann-Roch theorem of an entirely novel nature for divisors on the Arakelov compactification of the algebraic spectrum of the integers. This result relies on the introduction of three key concepts: the cohomologies (attached to…
An equivalent, but variant form of the Riemann functional equation is explored, and several discoveries are made. Properties of the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$ from which a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of zeros…
We prove that every Stein manifold X of dimension n admits [(n+1)/2] holomorphic functions with pointwise independent differentials, and this number is maximal for every n. In particular, X admits a holomorphic function without critical…
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…
We construct a single explicit entire function $\Xi_c(s)$ of order 1, with all zeros provably on $Re(s) = 1/2$, satisfying a functional equation $\Xi_c(s) = \Xi_c(1-s)$, whose normalized form $Z_c(s) =…
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…
We define a new theory of discrete Riemann surfaces and present its basic results. The key idea is to consider not only a cellular decomposition of a surface, but the union with its dual. Discrete holomorphy is defined by a straightforward…
The zero divisor of the theta function of a compact Riemann surface $X$ of genus $g$ is the canonical theta divisor of Pic${}^{(g-1)}$ up to translation by the Riemann constant $\Delta$ for a base point $P$ of $X$. The complement of the…
We use the Prime Number Theorem to prove the existence of zero-free strips for the Riemann-zeta function. Precisely, we prove that there exists $\delta>0$ for which if $0\leq r<\delta $ then $\zeta(s)\neq 0$ for Re$(s)>1-r$.
We prove that the nodal set (zero set) of a solution of a generalized Dirac equation on a Riemannian manifold has codimension 2 at least. If the underlying manifold is a surface, then the nodal set is discrete. We obtain a quick proof of…
By using new power inequalities we give an elementary proof of an important relation for the Riemann zeta-function |\zeta(1-s)| <= |\zeta(s)| in the strip 0< Re s<1/2,\ |\Im s| >= 12. Moreover, we establish a sufficient condition of the…
