Are there known zeros of the Zeta function off the line 1/2?












2














I've been doing research in information theory that had some superficial connections to the Zeta function, since I was making use of logarithms of complex numbers.



In short, we'd be looking at the Zeta function using values of s produced by powers of the logarithm function:



$zeta(log^n (-1)/x).$



I noticed several zeros for n = 6:

But, I don't know enough about this topic to be sure that this is actually interesting, since I know that at least some of the zeros of this function are considered "trivial". Nonetheless, I thought I'd share this in case some of you found it interesting and had insights.

    $zeta(-2n)=0$ are "trivial" zeros off the line $1/2$, see this post.

    There are no known zeros of $zeta(s)$ that don’t occur at a negative even integer (these are the trivial zeros) or have real part $sigma=frac12$. The Riemann Hypothesis states that any zero with real part between $0$ and $1$ will in fact have real part exactly $frac12$.

First of all, when plotted, only the real part of your graph crosses zero. Secondly, the only known zeroes of the zeta function off of the ${1 over 2} + atimes i$ line are the negative even integers, each of which is a zero. These are called trivial zeroes. The Riemann Hypothesis states that all other zeroes lie on that magic line. It is known that at least 40% of them lie there, and none off of it have ever been found.

Refactoring coordinates for Minecraft Pi buildings written in Python

Image
0 $begingroup$ I'm fairly new to coding and I wrote this script in Python for a house with a roof in Minecraft Pi. I've found different ways to write the coordinates to make the code base shorter, but I'm wondering if it is possible for me to refactor it any further so I don't have to list each coordinate line by line. import mcpi.minecraft as minecraft import mcpi.block as block mc = minecraft.Minecraft.create() p = mc.player.getTilePos() mc.setBlocks(p.x+1, p.y, p.z+1, #Main structure starting coordinates (DO NOT ALTER) p.x+19, p.y+4, p.z+6, #Structure size/coordinates (Alters cube size) block.STONE_BRICK) mc.setBlocks(p.x+2, p.y+1, p.z+2, #Hollowing out main structure interior p.x+18, p.y+3, p.z+5, block.AIR) mc.setBlocks(p.x, p.y...
