Arithmetical Aspects of Beurling’s Real Variable Reformulation of the Riemann Hypothesis

چکیده
Let ρ(x) := x−[x], χ := χ(0,1], the characteristic function of (0, 1], λ(x) := χ(x) log x, and M(x) := ∑ k≤x μ(k), where μ is the Möbius function. B is the space of functions defined in (0,∞) by expressions ∑n k=1 ck ρ(θk/x) with n ∈ N, ck ∈ C and θk ∈ (0, 1]. A minor sharpening of the results of B. Nyman and A. Beurling states that for any fixed p ∈ (1,∞)B Lp the Riemann zeta function ζ(s) 6= 0 for Rs > 1/p, if and only if Lp(0, 1) ⊂ B Lp , which, furthermore, is equivalent to χ ∈ B Lp or to λ ∈ B Lp . Starting from the elementary identity λ(x) := ∫ 1 0 M1(θ)ρ(θ/x)θdθ, with M1(θ) := M(1/θ), where the integral suggests a limit of functions in B, we were led to the following two arithmetical versions of the Nyman-Beurling results, proved by classical, quasi elementary, number-theoretic methods. Define Gn, a natural approximation to λ, by Gn(x) := ∫ 1 1/n M1(θ)ρ(θ/x)θ −1dθ, then for all p ∈ (1,∞) (I) ‖Gn − λ‖p → 0 implies ζ(s) 6= 0 in Rs ≥ 1/p, and ζ(s) 6= 0 in Rs > 1/p implies ‖Gn − λ‖r → 0 for all r ∈ (1, p). Likewise noting that ζ(s) 6= 0 in Rs > 1/p is equivalent to ‖M1‖r < ∞ for all r ∈ (1, p), we have for all p ∈ (1,∞) (II) ‖M1‖p < ∞ implies λ ∈ B Lp , and λ ∈ B Lp implies ‖M1‖r < ∞ for all r ∈ (1, p). It is clear from (I) that Gn → λ diverges in L2, although it is shown to converge both pointwise and in L1 to λ. The general Lp case is also discussed. Some older natural approximations to χ, for which J. Lee, M. Balazard and E. Saias proved theorems analogous to (I), are shown to diverge in L2.

A monotonicity property of Riemann's xi function and a reformulation of the Riemann hypothesis
We prove that Riemann's xi function is strictly increasing (respectively, strictly decreasing) in modulus along every horizontal half-line in any zero-free, open right (respectively, left) half-plane. A corollary is a reformulation of the Riemann Hypothesis.

In this brief note we bring out the analogy between the arithmetic of elliptic curves and the Riemann zeta-function. · · · The aim of this note is to point out the possibility of developing the theory of elliptic curves so that the arithmetical and analytic aspects are developed in strict analogy with the classical theory of the Riemann zeta-function. This has been triggered by Lemmermeyer’s pe...
متن کاملOn Nyman, Beurling and Baez-Duarte’s Hilbert space reformulation of the Riemann hypothesis
Abstract. There has been a surge of interest of late in an old result of Nyman and Beurling giving a Hilbert space formulation of the Riemann hypothesis. Many authors have contributed to this circle of ideas, culminating in a beautiful refinement due to Baez-Duarte. The purpose of this little survey is to dis-entangle the resulting web of complications, and reveal the essential simplicity of th...

New expansions for some functions related to the Zeta function in terms of the Pochhammer's polynomials are given (coe cients bk, dk, d̂k and ˆ̂ dk). In some formal limit our expansion bk obtained via the alternating series gives the regularized expansion of Maslanka for the Zeta function. The real and the imaginary part of the function on the critical line is obtained with a good accuracy up to ...

By the method of weight coefficients, techniques of real analysis and Hermite-Hadamard's inequality, a half-discrete Hardy-Hilbert-type inequality related to the kernel of the hyperbolic cosecant function with the best possible constant factor expressed in terms of the extended Riemann-zeta function is proved. The more accurate equivalent forms, the operator expressions with the norm, the rever...
