Description
The Riemann hypothesis (RH) may be the most important outstanding problem in mathematics. This third volume on equivalents to RH comprehensively presents recent results of Nicolas, Rogers-Tao-Dobner, Polymath15, and Matiyasevich. Particularly interesting are derivations which show, assuming all zeros on the critical line are simple, that RH is decidable. Also included are classical Polya-Jensen equivalence and related developments of Ono et al. Extensive appendices highlight key background results, most of which are proved. The book is highly accessible, with definitions repeated, proofs split logically, and graphical visuals. It is ideal for mathematicians wishing to update their knowledge, logicians, and graduate students seeking accessible number theory research problems. The three volumes can be read mostly independently. Volume 1 presents classical and modern arithmetic RH equivalents. Volume 2 covers equivalences with a strong analytic orientation. Volume 3 includes further arithmetic and analytic equivalents plus new material on RH decidability.
