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=…
Over the last few years Pohl (partly jointly with coauthors) developed dual `slow/fast' transfer operator approaches to automorphic functions, resonances, and Selberg zeta functions for a certain class of hyperbolic surfaces…
We study analytic aspects of the Dunkl-type Hankel transform, which goes back to Baker and Forrester and, in an earlier symmetrized version, to Macdonald. Moreover, we introduce a Dunkl analogue of the Bessel function and K-Bessel function…
Using the technology of harmonic analysis, we derive a crossing equation that acts only on the scalar primary operators of any two-dimensional conformal field theory with $U(1)^c$ symmetry. From this crossing equation, we derive bounds on…
The present essay aims at investigating whether and how far an algebraic analysis of the Zeta Function and of the Riemann Hypothesis can be carried out. Of course the well-established properties of the Zeta Function, explored in depth in…
The meromorphic function $W(s)$ introduced in the Riemann-Zeta function $\zeta(s) = W(s) \zeta(1-s)$ maps the line of $s = 1/2 + it$ onto the unit circle in $W$-space. $|W(s)| = 0$ gives the trivial zeroes of the Riemann-Zeta function…
Denote by $\mathbf{\mu}$ the maximal entropy measure for the shift map $\sigma$ acting on $\Omega = \{0, 1\}^\mathbb{N}$, by $L$ the associated Ruelle operator and by $K = L^{\dagger}$ the Koopman operator, both acting on…
The motion in the complex plane of the zeros to various zeta functions is investigated numerically. First the Hurwitz zeta function is considered and an accurate formula for the distribution of its zeros is suggested. Then functions which…
We study relationships between spinor representations of certain Lie algebras and Lie superalgebras of differential operators on the circle and values of $\zeta$--functions at the negative integers. By using formal calculus techniques we…
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 ${\cal T}_-(s)$,…
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…
This work develops an analytic framework for the study of the $\zeta$-function associated with general sequences of complex numbers. We show that a contour integral representation, commonly used when studying spectral $\zeta$-functions…
A variant for the Hilbert and Polya spectral interpretation of the Riemann zeta function is proposed. Instead of looking for a self-adjoint linear operator H, whose spectrum coincides with the Riemann zeta zeros, we look for the complex…
We characterize Maass cusp forms for any cofinite Hecke triangle group as 1-eigenfunctions of appropriate regularity of a transfer operator family. This transfer operator family is associated to a certain symbolic dynamics for the geodesic…
The connection zeta function of a finite abstract simplicial complex G is defined as zeta_L(s)=sum_x 1/lambda_x^s, where lambda_x are the eigenvalues of the connection Laplacian L defined by L(x,y)=1 if x and y intersect and 0 else. (I) As…
In this article we analyze the resolvent, the heat kernel and the spectral zeta function of the operator $-d^2/dr^2 - 1/(4r^2)$ over the finite interval. The structural properties of these spectral functions depend strongly on the chosen…
Assuming the Riemann hypothesis for $L$-functions attached to primitive Dirichlet characters, modular cusp forms, and their tensor products and symmetric squares, we write down explicit finite sets of Hecke operators that span the Hecke…
The Riemann Hypothesis (RH), one of the most profound unsolved problems in mathematics, concerns the nontrivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function. Establishing connections between the RH and physical phenomena could offer new perspectives…
For a $\mathbb{Z}^d$-action $\alpha$ by commuting homeomorphisms of a compact metric space, Lind introduced a dynamical zeta function that generalizes the dynamical zeta function of a single transformation. In this article, we investigate…
We investigate the physical interpretation of the Riemann zeta function as a FZZT brane partition function associated with a matrix/gravity correspondence. The Hilbert-Polya operator in this interpretation is the master matrix of the large…
