Is this integral representation of $\zeta(2n+1)$ known?
Background: I'm an undergraduate at an institution with no researchers in analytic number theory, and no ties to the analytic number theory community. I believe I have found what is, as far as I can ...

What is Ricardo Pérez-Marco's eñe product? Does it explain his statistical results on differences of zeta zeros?
The number theory community here at University of Michigan is abuzz with talk of this paper recently posted to the arxiv. If you haven't seen it already, the punch line is that the global differences ...

Zeros of the derivative of Riemann's $\xi$-function
The Riemann xi function $\xi(s)$ is defined as
$$
\xi(s)=\frac12 s(s-1)\pi^{-s/2}\Gamma(s/2)\zeta(s).
$$
It is an entire function whose zeros are precisely those of $\zeta(s)$.
Since $\xi$ is real ...

Special values of $\zeta$ outside the real line and the critical strip

Deriving an asymptotic for $\pi(x)$ directly from $\log \zeta(s)$?
Denote by $\pi(x)$ the number of primes $p\leq x$. We generally give approximations for $\pi(x)$ by first approximating $\psi(x) = \sum_{n\leq x} \Lambda(n)$. Part of the reason is presumably that, if ...

What is known about sums of the form $\sum_{n=2}^{\infty}[\zeta(n)-1]^{p} $?
A fair bit is known about rational zeta series. This includes identities like $$ \sum_{n=2}^{\infty} [\zeta(n) -1] = 1 . $$
Many more identities can be found in articles by e.g. Borwein and Adamchik &...

Inverse of the Riemann zeta function [closed]
I'm wondering if there is any information on the inverse of the Riemann zeta function (not it's reciprocal, but its functional inverse). This would obviously be a multi-valued function.

The Correlation of the Möbius Function and Dirichlet Characters
Let $\chi$ be a Dirichlet character, and define $\phi_\chi (n)$ so that it satisfies $$\sum_{n=1}^\infty \phi_\chi (n)n^{-s}=\frac{\zeta(s-1)}{L(s,\chi)}.$$
In other words
