A Possible Proof Of The Riemann Hypothesis
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: In this paper, I present my approach to the Riemann Hypothesis, which potentially provides elements for a proof of it, or even an actual proof. I start by simplifying the equality Eta(s)=0 (which is implied by the nullness of the continued Zeta(s)) by expressing |Eta(s)|^2=0 as Re(Eta(s))^2 + Im(Eta(s))^2 = 0, expressed with cosine and sine functions, then I use trigonometric identities to further break down the sum into a sum of squares purely relying on Re(s) and a double sum relying on both Re(s) and Im(s). Using the bounded nature of the cosine function, I reformulate the equality as a problem of quadratic equations, to get rid of the dependence on Im(s) as well as the oscillations it induces, I then consider Re(s) as a map a[n] = Re(s[n]) (n being the number of terms in Zeta(s) or Eta(s)), rather than a fixed value (since we deal with infinity), It has already been proved that for all the nontrivial zeros, their real part is in ]0,1[, So, I then use integrals and asymptotic analysis to observe three cases of asymptotic behaviours: Almost finished when a[n] converges to a real number in ]0,1/2[ when a[n] converges to a real number in ]1/2,1[ when a[n] converges to 1/2 (where we distinguish some more cases) Then I conclude that the only logically consistent case is when a[n] converges to 1/2. IMPORTANT NOTE: I keep making things more explicit, so don't be surprised if a make frequent new versions. I am currently deploying tremendous efforts to correct sentences and expressions, to make the paper smooth to read, As you can see, the amount of signs and calculations makes the careless mistakes really easy. I had figured out the wrong Epsilon again in the 1/2 case, I fine tuned it and corrected it now. I make corrections and update this paper whenever possible to make things clearer
