An analysis of the zeta and gamma function is presented, using elementary functions like [] and {}, a general formula for the angle of zeta(1/2 + i*n) is found and the same for the gamma function.
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) +…

Sums of squares of $|\zeta(1/2+it)|$ over short intervals are investigated. Known upper bounds for the fourth and twelfth moment of $|\zeta(1/2+it)|$ are derived. A discussion concerning other possibilities for the estimation of higher…
We prove an asymptotic formula for $F\left(1/4-it+ir,1/4-it-ir,1/2;x \right)$ as $r, t\to\infty$ and $\alpha=r/t\to0.$ This special case of the Gauss hypergeometric function appears in the explicit formula for the first moment of Maass form…
We obtain an asymptotic formula for the fourth moment of quadratic Dirichlet $L$--functions over $\mathbb{F}_q[x]$, as the base field $\mathbb{F}_q$ is fixed and the genus of the family goes to infinity. According to conjectures of Andrade…

The elementary geometric properties of Jacob's ladders of the second order lead to a class of new asymptotic formulae for short and microscopic parts of the Hardy-Littlewood integral of $|\zeta(1/2+it)|^4$. These formulae cannot be obtained…
We revisit a representation for the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$ expressed in terms of normalised incomplete gamma functions given by the author and S. Cang in Methods Appl. Anal. {\bf 4} (1997) 449--470. Use of the uniform asymptotics…
Let $\Delta(x)$ and $E(x)$ be error terms of the sum of divisor function and the mean square of the Riemann zeta function, respectively. In this paper their fourth power moments for short intervals of Jutila's type are considered. We get an…
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…
Some new results on power moments of the integral $$ J_k(t,G) = {1\over\sqrt{\pi}G} \int_{-\infty}^\infty |\zeta(1/2 + it + iu)|^{2k}{\rm e}^{-(u/G)^2}du \qquad(t \asymp T, T^\epsilon \le G \ll T, k\in\N) $$ are obtained when $k=1$. These…

It is proved in this paper that there is a fine correlation between the values of $|\zeta(1/2+i\vp_2(t))|^4$ and $|\zeta(1/2+it)|^4$ where $\vp_2(t)$ stands for the Jacob's ladder of the second order. This new asymptotic formula cannot be…
An asymptotic formula for $$ \int_{T/2}^{T}Z^2(t)Z(t+U)\,dt\qquad(0< U = U(T) \le T^{1/2-\varepsilon}) $$ is derived, where $$ Z(t) := \zeta(1/2+it){\bigl(\chi(1/2+it)\bigr)}^{-1/2}\quad(t\in\Bbb R), \quad \zeta(s) = \chi(s)\zeta(1-s) $$ is…
The twisted fourth moment of the Riemann zeta-function was established by Hughes and Young [J. Reine Angew. Math. 641 (2010), 203--236] and later improved by Bettin, Bui, Li and Radziwill [J. Eur. Math. Soc. (JEMS) 22 (2020), 3953--3980].…

In this note, we propose an integral representation for $\zeta(4)$, where $\zeta$ is the Riemann zeta function. The corresponding expression is obtained using relations for polylogarithms. A possible generalization to any even argument of…
