A computation in Conrey's paper on Riemann zeta function












1














I am reading the Conrey's paper "More than two fifths of the zeros of the Riemann zeta function are on the critical line" (see here).
I have question/doubt in a particular step: In P.10, it claimed that $B=0$. I wonder why it is true, because, in my opinion, there should be an extra term coming from the integration by parts:
$$B=thetaint_0^1 w(y)overline{w}'(y)dy
=thetaint_0^1 e^{2Ry}[R(1+lambda y)^2+lambda(1+lambda y)]dy\
=thetaleft(int_0^1 e^{2Ry}R(1+lambda y)^2dy+frac{1}{2}int_0^1e^{2Ry}d((1+lambda y)^2)right)\
\
=theta Bigg[frac{1}{2}e^{2Ry}(1+lambda y)^2Bigg]_{y=0}^{y=1},$$

where the last equality follows from doing integration by parts. I think this paper have been read and checked by many people. I would appreciate if I can get help from some of you who are familiar with this paper. Thank you very much.

  • I cannot access the paper. The only thing I could say is that your integration is perfect. Now, the stupid question : is there any relation between $R$ and $lambda$ ?

  • @ClaudeLeibovici Thanks for the comment. But it seems that $R$ and $lambda$ are not related. In P.10 of the paper, it was chosen such that $R=1.2$ and $lambda=-1.02$, and it does not make the above term vanishes. I am not sure if I miss something.
