In the present work the Riemanns hypothesis (RH) is discussed from four different perspectives. In the first case, coherent states and the Stengers approximation to Riemann-zeta function are used to show that RH avoids an indeterminacy of…
The existence of two nontrivial smooth solutions to a semilinear Robin problem with indefinite unbounded potential and asymmetric nonlinearity $f$ is established. Both crossing and resonance are allowed. A third nonzero solution exists…
Let $d(n)$ be the divisor function. In 1916, S. Ramanujan stated but without proof that $$\sum_{n\leq x}d^2(n)=xP(\log x)+E(x), $$ where $P(y)$ is a cubic polynomial in $y$ and $$ E(x)=O(x^{{3\over 5}+\epsilon}), $$ where $\epsilon$ is a…
It is known that the nonnegativity of Li coefficients is a necessary and sufficient condition for the Riemann hypothesis. We show that it is a necessary and sufficient condition for the Riemann hypothesis that all Li coefficients are norms…
A rationality condition is derived for the existence of odd perfect numbers involving the square root of a product, which consists of a sequence of repunits, multiplied by twice the base of one of the repunits. This constraint also provides…
The Riemann Hypothesis states that within the strip region of the complex plane $0 < {\rm Re}(s) < 1$, the Riemann $\xi(s)$ function has zeros only on the critical line ${\rm Re}(s) = \frac{1}{2}$ and none elsewhere. To prove the Riemann…
Existence and global regularity results for boundary-value problems of Robin type for harmonic and polyharmonic functions in $n$-dimensional half-spaces are offered. The Robin condition on the normal derivative on the boundary of the…
We consider the power series in two complex variables By(fb)(x)=S_(n=0)|.A_n^b x^n y^(n(n+1)/2)., where .(-1).^n A_n^b are the non-zero coefficients of the Maclaurin series of the Riemann Xi function. The Riemann hypothesis is the assertion…
For an irrational real $\alpha$ and $\gamma\not \in \mathbb Z + \mathbb Z\alpha$ it is well known that $$ \liminf_{|n|\rightarrow \infty} |n| ||n\alpha -\gamma || \leq \frac{1}{4}. $$ If the partial quotients, $a_i,$ in the negative…
Ramanujan proved that the inequality $\pi(x)^2 < \frac{e x}{\log x} \pi\Big(\frac{x}{e}\Big)$ holds for all sufficiently large values of $x$. Using an explicit estimate for the error in the prime number theorem, we show unconditionally that…
Hirst investigated a slight variant of Hindman's Finite Sums Theorem -- called Hilbert's Theorem -- and proved it equivalent over $\RCA_0$ to the Infinite Pigeonhole Principle for all colors. This gave the first example of a natural…
We consider a nonlinear, nonhomogeneous Robin problem with an indefinite potential and a nonsmooth primitive in the reaction term. In fact, the right-hand side of the problem (reaction term) is the Clarke subdifferential of a locally…
The properties of several functions are employed to investigate the zeros of the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(a+bi)$ $(0<a<1, b\neq 0)$. If the zeros of the zeta function have not the form $\frac{1}{2}+ib$ where $i=\sqrt{-1}$, we derive a…
Professor Georges Rhin considers a nonzero algebraic integer $\a$ with conjugates $\a_1=\a, \ldots, \a_d$ and asks what can be said about $\d \sum_{ | \a_i | >1} | \a_i |$, that we denote ${\rm{R}}(\a)$. If $\a$ is supposed to be a totally…
We prove that, given $\alpha>0$, if $M$ is a complete Riemannian manifold which Ricci curvature satisfies.\[\operatorname*{Ric}\nolimits_{x}(v)\geq\alpha\operatorname{sech}^{2} (r(x)))\] or \[…
The gap between what we can explicitly prove regarding the distribution of primes and what we suspect regarding the distribution of primes is enormous. It is (reasonably) well-known that the Riemann hypothesis is not sufficient to prove…
Chaining techniques show that if X is an isotropic log-concave random vector in R^n and Gamma is a standard Gaussian vector then E |X| < C n^{1/4} E |Gamma| for any norm |*|, where C is a universal constant. Using a completely different…
Famous Zaremba's conjecture (1971) states that for each positive integer $q\geq2$, there exists positive integer $1\leq a <q$, coprime to $q$, such that if you expand a fraction $a/q$ into a continued fraction $a/q=[a_1,\ldots,a_n]$, all of…
We present the first applications of the recently established by us (arXiv:1304.7895; Ukrainian Math. J. - 2014. -66. - P. 371-383) generalized Li's criterion equivalent to the Riemann Hypothesis. This criterion is the statement that the…
Let $\sigma(x)$ be the sum of the divisors of $x$. If $N$ is odd and $\sigma(N) = 2N$, then the odd perfect number $N$ is said to be given in Eulerian form if $N = {q^k}{n^2}$ where $q$ is prime with $q \equiv k \equiv 1 \pmod 4$ and…
