In this article, we count the number of consecutive zeros of the Epstein zeta-function, associated to a certain quadratic form, on the critical line with ordinates lying in $[0,T], T$ sufficiently large and which are separated apart by a given positive number $V$.
We investigate the zeros of Epstein zeta functions associated with a positive definite quadratic form with rational coefficients. Davenport and Heilbronn, and also Voronin, proved the existence of zeros of Epstein zeta functions off the critical line when the class number of the quadratic form is bigger than 1. These authors give lower bounds for the number of zeros in strips that are of the same order as the more easily proved upper bounds. In this paper, we improve their results by providing asymptotic formulas for the number of zeros.
Subconvexity bounds are proved for general Epstein zeta functions of k-ary quadratic forms. This is related to sup-norm bounds for Eisenstein series on GL(k), and the exact sup-norm exponent is determined to be (k-2)/8 for k >= 2. In particular, if $k$ is odd, this exponent is not in Z/4, which shows that Sarnak's purity conjecture does not hold for Eisenstein series.
We investigate the zeros of Epstein zeta functions associated with a positive definite quadratic form with rational coefficients in the vertical strip $ σ_1 < \Re s < σ_2 $, where $ 1/2 < σ_1 < σ_2 < 1 $. When the class number of the quadratic form is bigger than 1, Voronin gives a lower bound and Lee gives an asymptotic formula for the number of zeros. In this paper, we improve their results by providing a new upper bound for the error term.
It is proved that Epstein's zeta-function $ζ_{Q}(s)$, related to a positive definite integral binary quadratic form, has a zero $1/2 + iγ$ with $ T \leq γ\leq T + T^{{3/7} +\varepsilon} $ for sufficiently large positive numbers $T$. This is an improvement of the result by M. Jutila and K. Srinivas (Bull. London Math. Soc. 37 (2005) 45--53).
Let $Q$ be a positive definite quadratic form with integral coefficients and let $E(s,Q)$ be the Epstein zeta function associated with $Q$. Assume that the class number of $Q$ is bigger than $1$. Then we estimate the number of zeros of $E(s,Q)$ in the region $ \Re s > σ_T ( θ) := 1/2 + ( \log T)^{- θ}$ and $ T < \Im s < 2T$, to provide its asymptotic formula for fixed $ 0 < θ< 1$ conditionally. Moreover, it is unconditional if the class number of $Q$ is $2$ or $3$ and $ 0 < θ< 1/13$.
We study the Epstein zeta function $E_n(L,s)$ for $s>\frac{n}{2}$ and determine for fixed $c>\frac{1}{2}$ the value distribution and moments of $E_n(\cdot,cn)$ (suitably normalized) as $n\to\infty$. We further discuss the random function $c\mapsto E_n(\cdot,cn)$ for $c\in[A,B]$ with $\frac{1}{2}<A<B$ and determine its limit distribution as $n\to\infty$.
First, we recount a history of how certain methods using natural self-adjoint operators have, thus far, failed to prove the Riemann Hypothesis. In Section 2, we set the analytical context necessary to have genuine proofs in later sections, rather than attractive heuristics. In Section 3, we recall the utility of designed pseudo-Laplacians by reproving meromorphic continuation of certain Eisenstein series and proving a spacing result for zeros of $ζ_k(s)$ for $k$ a complex quadratic field with negative determinant. In Section 4, we construct an automorphic Hamiltonian which has purely discrete …
In this note we study, for a random lattice L of large dimension n, the supremum of the real parts of the zeros of the Epstein zeta function E_n(L,s) and prove that this random variable has a limit distribution, which we give explicitly. This limit distribution is studied in some detail; in particular we give an explicit formula for its distribution function.
We set up a connection between the theory of spherical designs and the question of minima of Epstein's zeta function. More precisely, we prove that a Euclidean lattice, all layers of which hold a 4-design, achieves a local minimum of the Epstein's zeta function, at least at any real s>n/2. We deduce from this a new proof of Sarnak and Strömbergsson's theorem asserting that the root lattices D4 and E8, as well as the Leech lattice, achieve a strict local minimum of the Epstein's zeta function at any s>0. Furthermore, our criterion enables us to extend their theorem to all the so-called extremal…
In the spirit of Ramanujan, we derive exponentially fast convergent series for Epstein zeta functions $ E^{\varGamma_0(N)}(z,s)$ on the Hecke congruence groups $ \varGamma_0(N),N\in\mathbb Z_{>0}$, where $z$ is an arbitrary point in the upper half-plane $ \mathfrak H$, and $s\in\mathbb Z_{>1}$. These Ramanujan series can be reformulated as integrations of modular forms, in the framework of Eichler integrals. Particular cases of these Eichler integrals recover part of the recent results reported by Wan and Zucker (arXiv:1410.7081v1).
By generalizing the classical Selberg-Chowla formula, we establish the analytic continuation and functional equation for a large class of Epstein zeta functions. This continuation is studied in order to provide new classes of theorems regarding the distribution of zeros of Dirichlet series in their critical lines and to produce a new method for the study of these problems. Due to the symmetries provided by the representation via the Selberg-Chowla formula, some generalizations of well-known formulas in analytic number theory are also deduced as examples.
The two-dimensional Epstein zeta function formulated on a rectangular lattice with spacings $a_x=1$ and $a_y=Δ$, $ζ^{(2)}(s,Δ) = \frac{1}{2} \sum_{j,k} (j^2+Δ^2 k^2)^{-s}$ $(\Re(s)>1)$ where the sum goes over all integers except of the origin $(j,k)=(0,0)$, is studied. It can be analytically continued to the whole complex $s$-plane except for the point $s=1$. The nontrivial zeros $\{ ρ=ρ_x+{\rm i}ρ_y \}$ of the Epstein zeta function, defined by $ζ^{(2)} (ρ,Δ)=0$, split into ``critical'' zeros (on the critical line $ρ_x=\frac{1}{2}$) and ``off-critical'' zeros ($ρ_x\ne\frac{1}{2}$). According t…
We study the value distribution of the Epstein zeta function $E_n(L,s)$ for $0<s<\frac{n}{2}$ and a random lattice $L$ of large dimension $n$. For any fixed $c\in(1/4,1/2)$ and $n\to\infty$, we prove that the random variable $V_n^{-2c}E_n(\cdot,cn)$ has a limit distribution, which we give explicitly (here $V_n$ is the volume of the $n$-dimensional unit ball). More generally, for any fixed $\ve>0$ we determine the limit distribution of the random function $c\mapsto V_n^{-2c}E_n(\cdot,cn)$, $c\in[1/4 +\ve, 1/2-\ve]$. After compensating for the pole at $c=\frac12$ we even obtain a limit result on…
We prove that if $\mathcal{L} \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ is a lattice such that $\det(\mathcal{L}') \geq 1$ for all sublattices $\mathcal{L}' \subseteq \mathcal{L}$, then \[ \sum_{\substack{\mathbf{y}\in\mathcal{L}\\\mathbf{y}\neq\mathbf0}} (\|\mathbf{y}\|^2+q)^{-s} \leq \sum_{\substack{\mathbf{z} \in \mathbb{Z}^n\\\mathbf{z}\neq\mathbf{0}}} (\|\mathbf{z}\|^2+q)^{-s} \] for all $s > n/2$ and all $0 \leq q \leq (2s-n)/(n+2)$, with equality if and only if $\mathcal{L}$ is isomorphic to $\mathbb{Z}^n$.
We prove that there is a correspondence between Ramanujan-type formulas for 1/π, and formulas for Dirichlet L-values. The same method also allows us to resolve certain values of the Epstein zeta function in terms of rapidly converging hypergeometric functions. The Epstein zeta functions were previously studied by Glasser and Zucker.
We study the Epstein zeta-function formulated on the $d$-dimensional hypercubic lattice, $ζ^{(d)}(s) = (1/2)\sideset{}{'}\sum_{n_1,\ldots,n_d} (n_1^2+\cdots+n_d^2)^{-s/2}$ where $\Re(s)>d$ and the summation runs over all integers excluding the origin. An analytical continuation of the Epstein function to the whole complex $s$-plane is constructed for spatial dimension $d$ being a continuous variable ranging from $0$ to $\infty$. We are interested in zeros $ρ=ρ_x+{\rm i}ρ_y$ defined by $ζ^{(d)}(ρ) = 0$. Besides the trivial zeros, there exist "critical" zeros (on the critical line) with $ρ_x=\fr…

We study universality properties of the Epstein zeta function $E_n(L,s)$ for lattices $L$ of large dimension $n$ and suitable regions of complex numbers $s$. Our main result is that, as $n\to\infty$, $E_n(L,s)$ is universal in the right half of the critical strip as $L$ varies over all $n$-dimensional lattices $L$. The proof uses an approximation result for Dirichlet polynomials together with a recent result on the distribution of lengths of lattice vectors in a random lattice of large dimension and a strong uniform estimate for the error term in the generalized circle problem. Using the same …
Adolf Hurwitz is rather famous for his celebrated contributions to Riemann surfaces, modular forms, diophantine equations and approximation as well as to certain aspects of algebra. His early work on an important generalization of Dirichlet's $L$-series, nowadays called Hurwitz zeta-function, is the only published work settled in the very active field of research around the Riemann zeta-function and its relatives. His mathematical diaries, however, provide another picture, namely a lifelong interest in the development of zeta-function theory. In this note we shall investigate his early work, i…
In this paper, we first reveal an intrinsic relation between non-abelian zeta functions and Epstein zeta functions for algebraic number fields. Then, we expose a fundamental relation between stability of lattices and distance to cusps. Next, using these two relations, we explicitly express rank two zeta functions in terms of the well-known Dedekind zeta functions. Finally, based on such an expression, we show that all zeros of rank two non-abelian zeta functions are entirely sitting on the critical line whose real part equals to 1/2. This is an integrated part of our Geo-Arithmetic Program.
Let $Q(x)$ be a quadratic form over $\mathbb{R}^n$. The Epstein zeta function associated to $Q(x)$ is a well known function in number theory. We generalize the construction of the Epstein zeta function to a class of function $ϕ(x)$ defined in $\mathbb{R}^n$ that we call $A-$homogeneous, where $A$ is a real aquare matrix of order $n$ having each eigenvalue in the left hal space $\Reλ>0$. Such a class includes all the homogeneous polynomials (positive outside the origin) and all the norms on $\mathbb{R}^n$ which are smooth outside the origin. As in the classical (i.e. quadratic) case we prove th…
In this paper, we will give a certain formula for the Riemann zeta function that expresses the Riemann zeta function by an infinte series consisting of $K$-Bessel functions. Such an infinite series expression can be regarded as an analogue of the Chowla-Selberg formula. Roughly speaking, the Chowla-Selberg formula is the formula that expresses the Epstein zeta-function by an infinite series consisting of $K$-Bessel functions. In addition, we also give certain analogues of the Chowla-Selberg formula for Dirichlet $L$-functions and $L$-functions associated with holomorphic cusp forms. Moreover, …
The following theorem is proven: Both real and imaginary parts of the function F(s) defined as F(s)=zeta(s)*Gamma(s/2)*pi**(-s/2)=xi(s)/(s*(s-1)), and whose zeroes exactly coincide with the non-trivial zeroes of the Riemann zeta-function, have infinitely many zeroes for any value of Re(s).
We show that if the derivative of the Riemann zeta function has sufficiently many zeros close to the critical line, then the zeta function has many closely spaced zeros. This gives a condition on the zeros of the derivative of the zeta function which implies a lower bound of the class numbers of imaginary quadratic fields.
Of what use are the zeros of the Riemann zeta function? We can use sums involving zeta zeros to count the primes up to $x$. Perron's formula leads to sums over zeta zeros that can count the squarefree integers up to $x$, or tally Euler's $ϕ$ function and other arithmetical functions. This is largely a presentation of experimental results.
Numerical investigations around a transformation of Landau's formula suggest certain statistical regularities in the distribution of zeros of the Riemann zeta function.
We show that the generalized Riemann hypothesis implies that there are infinitely many consecutive zeros of the Riemann zeta function whose spacing is 2.9125 times larger than the average spacing. This is deduced from the calculation of the second moment of the Riemann zeta function multiplied by a Dirichlet polynomial averaged over the zeros of the zeta function.
It is well known that real zeros of the Riemann zeta function are negative even integers. As for real zeros of the Hurwitz zeta function, T. Nakamura recently gave an existence condition in the intervals (0,1) and (-1,0). We generalize this result for all negative real numbers.
The distribution of the zeros of the Euler double zeta-function $ζ_2(s_1,s_2)$, in the case when $s_1=s_2$, is studied numerically. Some similarity to the distribution of the zeros of Hurwitz zeta-functions is observed.
In this paper, we show that any polynomial of zeta or $L$-functions with some conditions has infinitely many complex zeros off the critical line. This general result has abundant applications. By using the main result, we prove that the zeta-functions associated to symmetric matrices treated by Ibukiyama and Saito, certain spectral zeta-functions and the Euler-Zagier multiple zeta-functions have infinitely many complex zeros off the critical line. Moreover, we show that the Lindelöf hypothesis for the Riemann zeta-function is equivalent to the Lindelöf hypothesis for zeta-functions mentioned a…
Some zero-free regions were known on the right half of the complex plane in the form of vertical strips for fractional hypergeometric zeta functions. In this paper, we describe and demonstrate zero free regions on the left half of the complex plane for fractional hypergeometric zeta functions. The fractional hypergeometric zeta function of order $a$ has no zeros to the left half of the complex plane except the trivial zeros on the real axis.
In this note, we prove the existence of infinitely many zeros of certain generalized Hurwitz zeta functions in the domain of absolute convergence. This is a generalization of a classical problem of Davenport, Heilbronn and Cassels about the zeros of the Hurwitz zeta function.
Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis we show that there exist infinitely many consecutive zeros of the Riemann zeta-function whose gaps are greater than 2.9 times the average spacing.
Assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis(GRH), we show that infinitely often consecutive non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta-function differ by at least 3.072 times the average spacing.
We prove that there exist infinitely many consecutive zeros of the Riemann zeta-function on the critical line whose gaps are greater than $3.18$ times the average spacing. Using a modification of our method, we also show that there are even larger gaps between the multiple zeros of the zeta function on the critical line (if such zeros exist).
In this unpublished note, we sketch an idea of using a three-piece mollifier to slightly improve the known percentages of zeros and simple zeros of the Riemann zeta-function on the critical line. This uses the recent result of Bettin, Bui, Li and Radziwill [BBLR] on the twisted fourth moment of the Riemann zeta-function.
In this paper, we study a more general pair correlation function, $F_h(x,T)$, of the zeros of the Riemann zeta function. It provides information on the distribution of larger differences between the zeros.
We introduce multiple versions of L-functions for Witten zeta functions. We study their algebraic and analytic properties. Especially we investigate the existence of zeros at negative integers. These results strongly suggest the universal zero at -2. We look at their absolute limits also.
We develop a method for mean-value estimation of long Dirichlet polynomials. For an application, we use our method to study properties of the logarithmic derivative of the Riemann zeta function.
The derivative of the Riemann zeta function was computed numerically on several large sets of zeros at large heights. Comparisons to known and conjectured asymptotics are presented.
We consider a smooth counting function of the scaled zeros of the Riemann zeta function, around height T. We show that the first few moments tend to the Gaussian moments, with the exact number depending on the statistic considered.
We investigate the distribution of the zeros of partial sums of the Riemann zeta-function, sum_{n\leq X}n^{-s}, estimating the number of zeros up to height T, the number of zeros to the right of a given vertical line, and other aspects of their horizontal distribution.
Assume the Riemann hypothesis. On the right-hand side of the critical strip, we obtain an asymptotic formula for the discrete mean square of the Riemann zeta-function over imaginary parts of its zeros.
The alternating zeta function zeta*(s) = 1 - 2^{-s} + 3^{-s} - ... is related to the Riemann zeta function by the identity (1-2^{1-s})zeta(s) = zeta*(s). We deduce the vanishing of zeta*(s) at each nonreal zero of the factor 1-2^{1-s} without using the identity. Instead, we use a formula connecting the partial sums of the series for zeta*(s) to Riemann sums for the integral of x^{-s} from x=1 to x=2. We relate the proof to our earlier paper "The Riemann Hypothesis, simple zeros, and the asymptotic convergence degree of improper Riemann sums," Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 126 (1998) 1311-1314.
We prove some identities, which involve the non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function. From them we derive some convergent asymptotic expansions related to the work by Cramér, and also new representations for some arithmetical functions in terms of the non-trivial zeros.
This article studies the zeros of Dedekind zeta functions. In particular, we establish a smooth explicit formula for these zeros and we derive an effective version of the Deuring-Heilbronn phenomenon. In addition, we obtain an explicit bound for the number of zeros in a box.
In this paper we obtain some new estimates for the number of large values of Dirichlet polynomials. Our results imply new zero density estimates for the Riemann zeta function which give a small improvement on results of Bourgain and Jutila.
The (partially) ordered set of the non-trivial zeros of the zeta function with positive imaginary parts is considered. The order is the coordinatewise order inherited from $\mathbb{C}$. Some interesting properties regarding the minimal elements of this poset are proven.
Assuming GRH, we prove an explicit upper bound for the number of zeros of a Dedekind zeta function having imaginary part in $[T-a,T+a]$. We also prove a bound for the multiplicity of the zeros.
The number of zeros and the distribution of the real part of non-real zeros of the derivatives of the Riemann zeta function have been investigated by Berndt, Levinson, Montgomery, and Akatsuka. Berndt, Levinson, and Montgomery investigated the general case, meanwhile Akatsuka gave sharper estimates for the first derivative of the Riemann zeta function under the truth of the Riemann hypothesis. In this paper, we extend the results of Akatsuka to the second derivative of the Riemann zeta function.
