Bounding a number-theoretic integral
Find a good upper bound on $$\int_1^T\frac{\zeta'(s)}{\zeta(s)\zeta(1-s)}X^sdt,$$ where $s=c+it$ for a constant $c>1$ and $X>0$ is a parameter. If needed, we can assume RH.
My attempt here is ...

Size of $\zeta'(s)$ at its zeros
How large can the derivative of the Riemann zeta function be at its zeros?
More specifically, let $\rho$ be a zero of the zeta function with $\Im(\rho)\in (0,T]$. What can we say about $|\zeta'(\rho)|...

Is there a way to tie up even and "newly suggested odd" Riemann zeta values?
Define the sequence
$$a_s=(-1)^{\binom{s-1}2}\left(\frac{\pi}2\right)^s\frac1{2\cdot s!}\begin{cases} s\,E_{s-1}, \qquad \text{if $s$ is odd} \\ 2^{2s}B_s, \qquad \,\,\text{if $s$ is even};\end{cases}$...

Kasteleyn's formula for domino tilings generalized?
It seems a marvel when a bunch of irrational numbers "conspire" to become rational, even better an integer. An elementary example is $\prod_{j=1}^n4\cos^2\left(\pi j/(2n+1)\right)=1$.

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 ...

Intuition behind $\zeta(2) = \frac{\pi^2}{6}$ [closed]
In literature, there are many proofs of the well-known result $$\zeta(2) = \frac{\pi^2}{6}.$$
However, as far as I know, they do not offer an intuitive explanation of why this result should be true. ...
