Singular behavior of zeros of incomplete zeta function

I've been looking at the zeros of the incomplete zeta function $\zeta_{lower}(s, z)$ recently. $$ \zeta_{\mathrm{lower}}(s,z)=-\frac{{\Gamma(1-s)}}{2\pi i}\int_{z}^{\infty}\frac{{(-t)^{s-1}}}{e^{t}-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 $...

The location of the zeros of the "new" function $\Psi(s)=\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }{\frac{1}{n!^s}}$

Defining the Psi function as $$\Psi(s)=\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }{\frac{1}{n!^s}}$$ and by studying, from a numerical point of view, the location of the zeros in the complex plane up to $0<\Im(s)<...

Bounds for analytic circles

It is known that for certain particular entire functions $f(s)$ of first order, in the circle $|s| = p$, if $\epsilon$ is a positive number as small as desired, the following bound holds: $$|f(s)| = O(...

Riemann's attempts to prove RH

I read somewhere that Riemann believed he could find a representation of the zeta function that would allow him to show that all the non-trivial zeros of the zeta function lie on the critical line. I ...

Prove that the real part of this limit converges to $\frac{1}{2}$

Let $s= 1/3 + 14i$. Prove that the real part of this limit converges to $\frac{1}{2}$: $$ \Re\lim_{n \rightarrow \infty} \left( \left[ 1- \left( \sum _{k=1}^n \frac{(-1)^{k-1} \binom{n-1}{...

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\...

Double sum over zeros of Riemann zeta-function

In a paper by Saffari and Vaughan there appears a complicated-looking double sum $$\Sigma_1=\sum_{\rho_1}\sum_{\rho_2}\frac{(1+\theta)^{\rho_1}-1}{\rho_1}\cdot \frac{(1+\theta)^{\bar{\rho_2}}-1}{\bar{\...

Has there been further work on Bender-Brody-Müller approach to RH?

Earlier this year (April 4, 2017), a seemingly tantalizing approach of the Riemann Hypothesis based on ideas dating back to Hilbert and Pólya by Bender, Brody and Müller was made publicly available. I ...

More mysteries about the zeros of the Riemann zeta function

Update on 12/26/2020: I added the Appendix at the bottom: simplified formula for $|\zeta(s)|^2$, when $\frac{1}{2}<\Re(s)<1$. Update on 1/5/2020: I added the section "more interesting ...

On some property of the zeros of $\zeta(s)$ in the complex plane

This property is rather elementary, and not at all specific to $\zeta$, so I am wondering if it has any value in studying the zeros of the Riemann zeta function in the critical strip. It is a well ...

An integral involving the argument of the Gamma function and the Riemann Hypothesis

Evaluate $$I=\int_{0}^{\infty} \frac{t\arg \Gamma(\frac{1}{4}+\frac{it}{2})}{(\frac{1}{4}+t^2)^2}\mathrm{d}t$$ where $\Gamma(s)=\int_{0}^{\infty}e^{-x}x^{s-1}\mathrm{d}x.$ Note that $I$ converges ...

Cesaro summation of a particular Dirichlet series associated with $\zeta(s)$

If you've investigated the error in Perron's formula in general, you've probably noticed that Cesaro summation $$\lim_{x\rightarrow\infty}\sum_{n\leq x} \left(1-\frac{\log n}{\log x}\right)\frac{a_n}{...
