How to construct elliptic functions with predescribled zeros and poles by means of Weierstrass ℘-function and its derivatives?
Given a lattice $\Lambda=\mathbb{Z}\omega_1+\mathbb{Z}\omega_2$ in $\mathbb{C}$. It's well known that given $n_i\in\mathbb{Z}, z_i\in \mathbb{C}$ satisfying $\sum n_i z\in\Lambda$ and $\sum n_i=0$, ...

Zeros of the partial sums $\sum_{k=0}^n (-1)^k/(z-k)$
let
$$
D_n(z)=\sum_{k=0}^n \frac{(-1)^k}{z-k}
=\frac{P_n(z)}{Q_n(z)}, \qquad
Q_n(z) = \prod_{k=0}^n (z-k).
$$
We have $\deg P_n = n$ ($n$ even), and $\deg P_n = n-1$ ($n$ odd). Moreover, using the ...

Picard-Fuchs equation, Schwarzian derivative and Bers embedding of Teichmuller Space
Let $X$ be the elliptic curve
$$y^2=x^3-g_2x+g_3$$
The $j$ invariant of $X$ is
$$j=\frac{g_2^3}{g_2^3-27g_3^2}$$
I came across the formula of Dedekind
$S(\tau)(j)=\frac{1-\frac{1}{2^2}}{(1-j)^2}+\frac{...

Convexity principle in several complex variables
I would like a reference for an analogue of the Phragmen-Lindelof in several complex variables. Specifically, if f is analytic in a region $A \subset \mathbb C^n$ and, by Bochner's theorem it extends ...

Upper bound for maximum of reciprocal of zeta
The following appears in this paper:
Lemma Let $H=T^{1/3}$. Then we have
$$\min_{T\le t\le T+H}\max_{1/2\le\sigma\le 2}\frac{1}{|\zeta(\sigma+it)|}<\exp(C(\log\log T)^2)$$
where $C$ is an absolute ...

Explicit convexity bound for Dirichlet $L$-functions
The following is a well-known convexity bound for Dirichlet $L$-functions.
Theorem Let $\chi$ be a primitive character to the modulus $q$. Then, for any fixed $\varepsilon>0$ and any $k\in\mathbb{...

No real roots of $\frac{1}{2^{1+it}} + \frac{1}{3^{1+it}} + \frac{1}{5^{1+it}}$
Prove or disprove that $$\frac{1}{2^{1+it}} + \frac{1}{3^{1+it}} + \frac{1}{5^{1+it}} \neq 0$$ for any real number $t$.
I find it surprising that so simple looking equations involving complex numbers ...

Critical zeros and Levinson's method
In this paper it was shown that one can prove at least one third of the non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function lie on the critical line. This method relies on the twisted second moment of $\...

When does the positive part of an entire function being in $L^2$ imply that the entire function is in $L^2$?
Let $f$ be an entire function of exponential type, real on the real axis, and $f^+$ its positive part, i.e.
$$
f^+(x) = \begin{cases}
f(x) & \text{if} f(x) \geq 0,\\
0 & \text{otherwise}.

Is phase $S(T)$ of Riemann Zeta function jumping maximum by one for small increase of $T$?
The number of non-trivial zeros of the $\zeta$ function is strongly coupled to
the hypothetical number of zeros outside of the critical line that are
counter-examples for the Riemann Hypothesis. Hence,...

Necessary condition for a partial sum in the limit
For $s\in\mathbb{C}$, let $S(s)$ be a series that checks for the Hurwitz Theorem,
If $S(s)=0$, then by Hurwitz theorem, there exists a sequence $s_n$ so that $s_n \xrightarrow[n\to \infty]{} s$ ...

Let me just recall that the Minkowski sum of two sets is defined by
$$A+B=\{a+b|\, a\in A, b\in B\}.$$

Computing Pic with the exponential exact sequence for singular Varieties
For a smooth complex projective variety $X$, the exponential exact sequence is $0\to \mathbb{Z} \to O \to O^*\to 0$, and gives rise to a LES of cohomology. Here, $O$ is the sheaf of holomorphic ...

Composition of two functions is holomorphic and second is holomorphic then first is holomorphic
Let $f, g: \mathbb{C}^n \rightarrow \mathbb{C}^n$, $g$ is surjective, $f \circ g$ is holomorphic and $g$ is holomorphic. Is $f$ holomorphic? I found this is true for 1-dimensional case but is it such ...

Best formulation of Riemann hypothesis for a general audience
There are many equivalent ways to state the Riemann Hypothesis. I'm looking for a statement that is mathematically precise and yet at the same time as accessible as possible to a general audience. The ...
