Download or read book Dr. Riemann's Zeros written by Karl Sabbagh and published by Atlantic Books (UK). This book was released on 2003 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1859 Bernhard Riemann, a shy German mathematician, gave an answer to a problem that had long puzzled mathematicians. Although he couldn't provide a proof, Riemann declared that his solution was 'very probably' true. For the next one hundred and fifty years, the world's mathematicians have longed to confirm the Riemann hypothesis. So great is the interest in its solution that in 2001, an American foundation offered a million-dollar prize to the first person to demonstrate that the hypothesis is correct. In this book, Karl Sabbagh makes accessible even the airiest peaks of maths and paints vivid portraits of the people racing to solve the problem. Dr. Riemann's Zeros is a gripping exploration of the mystery at the heart of our counting system.

Book excerpt: An engaging, informative, and wryly humorous exploration of one of the great conundrums of all time In 1859 Bernhard Riemann, a shy German mathematician, wrote an eight-page article giving an answer to a problem that had long puzzled mathematicians. But he didn’t provide a proof. In fact, he said he couldn’t prove it but he thought that his answer was “very probably” true. From the publication of that paper to the present day, the world’s mathematicians have been fascinated, infuriated, and obsessed with proving the Riemann Hypothesis, and so great is the interest in its solution that in 2001 an American foundation put up prize money of $1 million for the first person to demonstrate that the hypothesis is correct. The hypothesis refers to prime numbers, which are in some sense the atoms from which all other numbers are constructed, and seeks to explain where every single prime to infinity will occur. Riemann’s idea—if true—would illuminate how these numbers are distributed, and if false will throw pure mathematics into confusion. Karl Sabbagh meets some of the world’s mathematicians who spend their lives thinking about the Riemann Hypothesis, focusing attention in particular on “Riemann’s zeros,” a series of points that are believed to lie in a straight line, though no one can prove it. Accessible and vivid, The Riemann Hypothesis is a brilliant explanation of numbers and a profound meditation on the ultimate meaning of mathematics.
Book Synopsis The Riemann Hypothesis by : Peter B. Borwein
Download or read book The Riemann Hypothesis written by Peter B. Borwein and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008 with total page 543 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Riemann Hypothesis has become the Holy Grail of mathematics in the century and a half since 1859 when Bernhard Riemann, one of the extraordinary mathematical talents of the 19th century, originally posed the problem. While the problem is notoriously difficult, and complicated even to state carefully, it can be loosely formulated as "the number of integers with an even number of prime factors is the same as the number of integers with an odd number of prime factors." The Hypothesis makes a very precise connection between two seemingly unrelated mathematical objects, namely prime numbers and the zeros of analytic functions. If solved, it would give us profound insight into number theory and, in particular, the nature of prime numbers. This book is an introduction to the theory surrounding the Riemann Hypothesis. Part I serves as a compendium of known results and as a primer for the material presented in the 20 original papers contained in Part II. The original papers place the material into historical context and illustrate the motivations for research on and around the Riemann Hypothesis. Several of these papers focus on computation of the zeta function, while others give proofs of the Prime Number Theorem, since the Prime Number Theorem is so closely connected to the Riemann Hypothesis. The text is suitable for a graduate course or seminar or simply as a reference for anyone interested in this extraordinary conjecture.

Book Synopsis Prime Obsession by : John Derbyshire
Download or read book Prime Obsession written by John Derbyshire and published by Joseph Henry Press. This book was released on 2003-04-15 with total page 446 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In August 1859 Bernhard Riemann, a little-known 32-year old mathematician, presented a paper to the Berlin Academy titled: "On the Number of Prime Numbers Less Than a Given Quantity." In the middle of that paper, Riemann made an incidental remark â€" a guess, a hypothesis. What he tossed out to the assembled mathematicians that day has proven to be almost cruelly compelling to countless scholars in the ensuing years. Today, after 150 years of careful research and exhaustive study, the question remains. Is the hypothesis true or false? Riemann's basic inquiry, the primary topic of his paper, concerned a straightforward but nevertheless important matter of arithmetic â€" defining a precise formula to track and identify the occurrence of prime numbers. But it is that incidental remark â€" the Riemann Hypothesis â€" that is the truly astonishing legacy of his 1859 paper. Because Riemann was able to see beyond the pattern of the primes to discern traces of something mysterious and mathematically elegant shrouded in the shadows â€" subtle variations in the distribution of those prime numbers. Brilliant for its clarity, astounding for its potential consequences, the Hypothesis took on enormous importance in mathematics. Indeed, the successful solution to this puzzle would herald a revolution in prime number theory. Proving or disproving it became the greatest challenge of the age. It has become clear that the Riemann Hypothesis, whose resolution seems to hang tantalizingly just beyond our grasp, holds the key to a variety of scientific and mathematical investigations. The making and breaking of modern codes, which depend on the properties of the prime numbers, have roots in the Hypothesis. In a series of extraordinary developments during the 1970s, it emerged that even the physics of the atomic nucleus is connected in ways not yet fully understood to this strange conundrum. Hunting down the solution to the Riemann Hypothesis has become an obsession for many â€" the veritable "great white whale" of mathematical research. Yet despite determined efforts by generations of mathematicians, the Riemann Hypothesis defies resolution. Alternating passages of extraordinarily lucid mathematical exposition with chapters of elegantly composed biography and history, Prime Obsession is a fascinating and fluent account of an epic mathematical mystery that continues to challenge and excite the world. Posited a century and a half ago, the Riemann Hypothesis is an intellectual feast for the cognoscenti and the curious alike. Not just a story of numbers and calculations, Prime Obsession is the engrossing tale of a relentless hunt for an elusive proof â€" and those who have been consumed by it.
Download or read book Flatterland written by Ian Stewart and published by ReadHowYouWant.com. This book was released on 2010-10-08 with total page 466 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First there was Edwin A. Abbott's remarkable Flatland, published in 1884, and one of the all-time classics of popular mathematics. Now, from mathematician and accomplished science writer Ian Stewart, comes what Nature calls "a superb sequel." Through larger-than-life characters and an inspired story line, Flatterland explores our present understanding of the shape and origins of the universe, the nature of space, time, and matter, as well as modern geometries and their applications. The journey begins when our heroine, Victoria Line, comes upon her great-great-grandfather A. Square's diary, hidden in the attic. The writings help her to contact the Space Hopper, who tempts her away from her home and family in Flatland and becomes her guide and mentor through ten dimensions. In the tradition of Alice in Wonderland and The Phantom Toll Booth, this magnificent investigation into the nature of reality is destined to become a modern classic.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Academic Paper from the year 2021 in the subject Mathematics - Analysis, grade: 2.00, , language: English, abstract: It is demonstrated in this work that we may construct an infinite number of strips in the complex plane having the same 'dimensions as the Critical Strip and which are devoid of Riemann zeros except on the line of symmetry. It is shown that the number of zeros on each line is infinite, indeed, there is a Riemann zero at infinity. It is posited that a form of the Riemann conjecture is verified in each strip. It is shown that each integer in the infinite set of the integers has an associated Riemann zero and that the imaginary parts of the complex number at which the zeros are located are proportional to the 'local' asymptote to the prime counting function. A connection between the prime counting function and the zeta function is established. A limited distribution of the Riemann zeros corresponding to their respective prime numbers is constructed and it is seen that, at least over this range, the two are correlated, albeit non-linearly. It is demonstrated that the imaginary part of the complex number locating a Riemann zero may, for any integer that can be articulated, be obtained by a few keystrokes of a hand calculator.

Download or read book Entangling Primes and Zeros written by David R Ely and published by David R Ely. This book was released on 2024-04-26 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For over 150 years, the Riemann Hypothesis stood as perhaps the greatest unsolved problem in mathematics. Proposed in 1859 by Bernard Riemann, the conjecture provided a tantalizing connection between the distribution of prime numbers and the zeros of an analytic function. Riemann located all the non-trivial zeros of the zeta function along a straight line in the complex plane. This simple pattern pointed to hidden order in the chaos of prime numbers. Generations of mathematicians struggled in vain to prove Riemann's alluring claim. It became the holy grail of number theory, resisting the most powerful mathematical minds. The Riemann Hypothesis gained renown as the most important problem in all of mathematics. But despite intense effort, the problem seemed mired in insurmountable difficulty. In this book, we walk through the proof that could finally cracked Riemann's age-old enigma. By bringing together ideas from complex analysis, number theory, and topology, the proof provides a creative bridge between mathematics' disparate domains. Methods based on symmetry, contradiction, and strategic re-expression illuminate Riemann's magic at last. The book offers the first comprehensive guide to understanding and appreciating this watershed mathematical achievement. It provides deep mathematical insights, historical perspectives, and reflection on problem-solving philosophy. Most importantly, the work pays tribute to the human spirit embodied in mathematics’ unending quest to understand the mysteries of patterns that surround us.
