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.

The purpose of the present paper is to reveal the relation between the behavior of the logarithm of the Riemann zeta-function $\log{\zeta(s)}$ and the distribution of zeros of the Riemann zeta-function. We already know some examples for the relation by some previous works. For example, Littlewood showed an upper bound of $\log{\zeta(1/2 + it)}$ by assuming the Riemann Hypothesis in 1924. One of our results reveals that Littlewood's upper bound can be proved without assuming a...

The goal of this paper is to give a relatively simple proof of some known zero density estimates for Riemann zeta function which are sufficiently strong to break the density hypothesis in a nontrivial part of the critical strip. Apart from a simple but ingenious idea of Halasz the proof uses only classical knowledge about the zeta function, results known since at least hundred years.

It is shown explicitly how the sign of Hardy's function $Z(t)$ depends on the parity of the zero-counting function $N(T)$. Two existing definitions of this function are analyzed, and some related problems are discussed.

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 Ri...

In the present series of papers, we study the behavior of the r-fold zeta-function of Euler-Zagier type with identical arguments on the real line. In this first part, we consider the behavior on the interval [0,1]. Our basic tool is an "infinite" version of Newton's classical identities. We carry out numerical computations, and draw graphs for real s in [0,1], for several small values of r. Those graphs suggest various properties of the r-fold zeta-function, some of which we ...

In 1946, A. Selberg proved $N(\sigma,T) \ll T^{1-\frac{1}{4} \left(\sigma-\frac{1}{2}\right)} \log{T}$ where $N(\sigma,T)$ is the number of nontrivial zeros $\rho$ of the Riemann zeta-function with $\Re\{\rho\}>\sigma$ and $0<\Im\{\rho\}\leq T$. We provide an explicit version of this estimate, together with an explicit approximate functional equation and an explicit upper bound for the second power moment of the zeta-function on the critical line.

In this paper, we focus on the existence of accumulation points of the subset defined by the real projection of the zeros of the partial sums of the Riemann zeta functions. That would imply the existence of an infinite amount of zeros of the partial sums of the Riemann zeta functions arbitrarily close to a line parallel to the imaginary axis passing through every accumulation point.

We improve the estimation of the distribution of the nontrivial zeros of Riemann zeta function $\zeta(\sigma+it)$ for sufficiently large $t$, which is based on an exact calculation of some special logarithmic integrals of nonvanishing $\zeta(\sigma+it)$ along well-chosen contours. A special and single-valued coordinate transformation $s=\tau(z)$ is chosen as the inverse of $z=\chi(s)$, and the functional equation $\zeta(s) = \chi(s)\zeta(1-s)$ is simplified as $G(z) = z\, G_-...

This paper studies zeta functions of the form $\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \chi(n) n^{-s}$, with $\chi$ a completely multiplicative function taking only unimodular values. We denote by $\sigma(\chi)$ the infimum of those $\alpha$ such that the Dirichlet series $\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \chi(n) n^{-s}$ can be continued meromorphically to the half-plane $\operatorname{Re} s>\alpha$, and denote by $\zeta_{\chi}(s)$ the corresponding meromorphic function in $\operatorname{Re} s>\sigma(\chi)$....
