From holes in the image of peculiar functions to new perspective on the Riemann Hypothesis

I am working with the Dirichlet eta function $\eta(z)$, with $z=\sigma+it$, $\sigma > \frac{1}{2}$, and $t>0$. Let us define $$\eta_n(z,\gamma)= \sum_{k=1}^n (-1)^{k+1}\lambda_k^{-\sigma} e^{-it\...

Functional equation or analytic continuation of certain approximations to $\zeta^z(s)$?

Let $z$ be a complex number and $\omega(n)$ denote the number of distinct prime factors of the natural number $n$. I am considering the arithmetic functions $|\mu(n)|z^{\omega(n)}$ and their ...

Approximating $\zeta^{(r)}(s)$ by a sum

Let $\eta:[0,\infty)\to [0,\infty)$ be compactly supported, continuous and piecewise $C^1$, with its derivative $\eta'$ being of bounded variation. It is completely unsurprising that one can prove (...

What is the winding behavior of the Riemann zeta function around zero along the line $s=1+it$?

Let $\phi: \mathbb R \setminus \{0\} \to S^1 \subset \mathbb C$ be defined by $$\phi(t)= \zeta(1+it)/|\zeta(1+it)|$$ (the nonvavishing of the denominator being a bit weaker than the prime number ...

On the asymptotics of some sum involving the Mertens function

Let $a_n$ be a sequence of nonnegative real numbers such that $\sum_{n\leq x} a_n \gg \frac{\sqrt x}{\log x}$ for large enough $x$. Denote by $\mu$ the Mobius function, and let $M(N)=\sum_{n\leq N} \...

Explicit bounds on gaps between zeros of $\zeta^\prime(s)$

In $\S$9.1 of "Theory of the Riemann Zeta Function", Titchmarsh uses Borel-Carathéodory and Hadamard Three Circles to show that every circle of radius 6 and center $3+iT$ contains a zeros of ...

Order of growth of $\left|\frac{1}{\zeta’(\rho)}\right|$ as $\Im(\rho)\rightarrow\infty$?

Let $\zeta$ denote the Riemann zeta function, and let $\rho\in\mathbb{C}$ be a variable that takes its values among the zeros of the zeta function, so that $\zeta(\rho)=0$, and write $\rho=\sigma+it$. ...

Binomial transform of Dirchlet series (2)

Referring to this MO question, i managed to do the following : We denote by $J(k+1,z)$ the sum : $$J(n+1,z)=\sum_{k=0}^{n}(-1)^{k}\binom{n}{k}\frac{\theta(k+1)}{(k+1)^{z}}$$ and by $S(k+1,z)$ the sum :...

On infinite sum containing logarithmic derivative of Zeta function and Möbius function:

Consider the following function: $$F(s)= \sum_m \mu(m) \sum_n \frac{e^{-n/2}\zeta^\prime (mns)}{n \zeta(mns)}$$ Now, we can see, that function has simple poles ${\left[\frac{1}{n}\right]}_{n=1}^\...

Are there any known statistics on the sign of the Stieltjes Constants?

The Stieltjes Constants $\gamma_n$ arise from considering the laurent series of the Riemann Zeta function at $s=1$ $$ \zeta(s) = \frac{1}{s-1} + \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} (-1)^n \frac{\gamma_n}{n!} (s-1)^n $...

Convergence of zeta Euler product with additional term

Let's consider the following Euler product ($s=\sigma+it)$: $$ P(s)=\prod_{p \; \text{prime}} \frac{1}{1-p^{-s}} \; e^{-p^{-s}}$$ So for $\sigma>1$, it is clear the product converges and we have: $$...
