Could the complex zeros of Riemann zeta function be of the form $ s=0.5+ik$ with $k$ a posit...

As explained by Peter Humphries in the comments, the famous conjecture here is that the imaginary part of the non-trivial zeros of $\zeta(s)$ is transcendental (or equivalently, linearly independent o …

Upper bounds for regulators of real quadratic fields

We have an elementary sharp lower bound for the regulator of a real quadratic field as a function of the discriminant $$R\geq \tfrac{1}{2}(\sqrt{d-4}+\sqrt{d})$$ It is sharp because the equality hol …

Artin conjecture on L-functions

This is the status as far as I know. For dimension $\leq 2$ it is up to date. For higher dimensional representations I'm sure it is very incomplete, so feel free to edit or comment. Dimension 1. Known …

Lindelöf Hypothesis and the Karatsuba conjectures

I'm aware of Shao-Ji Feng's result that Karatsuba's weaker conjecture ("conjecture 1") is true conditionally on the Lindelöf Hypothesis. Shao-Ji Feng, "On Karatsuba conjecture and the Lindelöf hypot …

Legendre's Constant

I'll stay clear from the infamous $B_L'$ notation. Legendre's original (correct) statement is that $$\pi(x)=\frac{Bx}{\log x-A+o(1)}$$ where the so-called "Legendre's constant" is $A$. The incorre …

A question about Yitang Zhang's paper "On the zeros of ζ’(s) near the critical line"

As Carlo Beenakker mentions in the comments, \begin{equation*} \begin{split} -\sum_{\beta'=1/2} \mathrm{Re} \left(\frac{1}{1/2+it-\rho'}\right)&=- \mathrm{Re}\left( \frac{1}{1/2+it-(1/2+it')}\right)\ …

The connection between the Weil conjectures and Ramanujan's conjecture

Basically, the coefficients of an holomorphic cusp form are related to the number of points on a certain smooth projective variety over $\mathbb{F}_p$, and the Weil-Riemann hypothesis gives the necces …

How to compute with the Stark conjectures?

The main reference here is the very useful User's Guide, C. Batut, K. Belabas, D. Bernardi, H. Cohen, M. Olivier, "User's Guide to PARI / GP" (2003) Particularly the sections about bnrstark (pp. 1 …

Intuition behind the Riemann $\zeta$ functional equation

To be fair, the functional equation of $\zeta(s)$ is not really $\Lambda\left(1 - s\right)=\Lambda\left( s\right)$, but $$\zeta(1-s)=\frac{2}{(2\pi)^s}\Gamma(s)\cos \left(\frac{\pi s}{2}\right) \zeta …

Riemann Hypothesis and Euler product

The conditions to impose to the Euler product of an L-function in order for a generalized Riemann hypothesis to hold are well understood after Selberg's 1992 paper. In particular, given $L(s)=\prod_p …

Functional equation Dedekind zeta function

In any event, this is essentially Hecke's original argument, the only other truly independent known proof being that of Tate. The original paper (in german) is, I believe, Erich Hecke "Über die Zeta …

Locating a certain result on primes represented by a certain polynomial

They prove it in section 14 ("An Application") of their paper John Friedlander & Henryk Iwaniec, "The Illusory Sieve" (2005) As pointed out by Lucia in the comments, the result is conditional on t …

Existence of a Hilbert modular form of parallel weight 6

In this paper, van der Geer and Zagier come across a concrete Hilbert cusp form of weight $6$ on $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathcal{O})$, namely $$f=-16(x+x^{-1})^3 (q+(27x^3-39x-39x^{-1}+27x^{-3})q^2+(285x^6-7 …

How to understand the explicit formula for zeta function?

The analogy between zeta functions and trace formulas goes at least to Selberg, when he proved his famous trace formula for hyperbolic surfaces and the result turned out to resemble Weil's generalizat …
