Approximating the Riemann Zeta-Function by Strongly Recurrent Functions

Chapter
Part of the Fields Institute Communications book series (FIC, volume 65)

Abstract

Bhaskar Bagchi has shown that the Riemann hypothesis holds if and only if the Riemann zeta-function ζ(z) is strongly recurrent in the strip 1/2<ℜz<1. In this note we show that ζ(z) can be approximated by strongly recurrent functions sharing important properties with ζ(z).
