The Beurling-Nyman criterion for the Riemann hypothesis: numerical aspects. (Le critère de Beurling et Nyman pour l'hypothèse de Riemann: aspects numérique.)
We study the infinitesimal generator of the Lax-Phillips semigroup of the automorphic scattering system defined on the Poincaré upper half-plane for SL₂(ℤ). We show that its spectrum consists only of the poles of the resolvent of the generator, and coincides with the poles of the scattering matrix, counted with multiplicities. Using this we construct an operator whose eigenvalues, counted with algebraic multiplicities (i.e. dimensions of generalized eigenspaces), are precisely the non-trivial zeros...
Previous work by Rubinstein and Gao computed the n-level densities for families of quadratic Dirichlet L-functions for test functions f̂₁, ..., f̂ₙ supported in , and showed agreement with random matrix theory predictions in this range for n ≤ 3 but only in a restricted range for larger n. We extend these results and show agreement for n ≤ 7, and reduce higher n to a Fourier transform identity. The proof involves adopting a new combinatorial perspective to convert all terms to a canonical form,...
We use the conjecture of Conrey, Farmer and Zirnbauer for averages of ratios of the Riemann zeta function [11] to calculate all the lower order terms of the triple correlation function of the Riemann zeros. A previous approach was suggested by Bogomolny and Keating [6] taking inspiration from semi-classical methods. At that point they did not write out the answer explicitly, so we do that here, illustrating that by our method all the lower order terms down to the constant can be calculated rigourously...
