Abstract

We prove that the Riemann zeta-function $ζ(σ+ it)$ has no zeros in the region $σ\geq 1 - 1/(55.241(\log|t|)^{2/3} (\log\log |t|)^{1/3})$ for $|t|\geq 3$. In addition, we improve the constant in the classical zero-free region, showing that the zeta-function has no zeros in the region $σ\geq 1 - 1/(5.558691\log|t|)$ for $|t|\geq 2$. We also provide new bounds that are useful for intermediate values of $|t|$. Combined, our results improve the largest known zero-free region within the critical strip for $3\cdot10^{12} \leq |t|\leq \exp(64.1)$ and $|t| \geq \exp(1000)$.

    • "It has been proved all the zeroes are within a narrow strip centred on the line and you can make the strip as arbitrarily narrow as you like." Nothing close to this is known. The nontrivial zeros of zeta lie within the critical strip, i.e., 0 <= Re(s) <= 1 (in analytic number…
