Abstract

top
Assuming the Riemann hypothesis, we investigate the distribution of gaps between the zeros of ξ ′ ( s ) . We prove that a positive proportion of gaps are less than 0 . 796 times the average spacing and, in the other direction, a positive proportion of gaps are greater than 1 . 18 times the average spacing. We also exhibit the existence of infinitely many normalized gaps smaller (larger) than 0 . 7203 ( 1 . 5 , respectively).

We prove that a positive proportion of gaps are less than $0.796$ times the average spacing and, in the other direction, a positive proportion of gaps are greater than $1.18$ times the average spacing. We also exhibit the existence of infinitely many normalized gaps smaller (larger) than $0.7203$ ($1.5$, respectively).
