/sci/ I have finally solved the Riemann hypothesis (it's true)

paper is going up on arxiv soon, it's just getting checked by my advisor as I type this post. I had to invent a new proof method to solve it but I won't tell you what it is because people have been mean to me on the internet lately. If this is a nice thread, I'll explain further.

Let me guess. You assumed that the Riemann Hypothesis was false and found that this implied that traps aren't a gay. A clear contradiction, and therefore the Riemann Hypothesis is true.

I've known this to be possible for years but I could never quite find the right link between the zeta function and traps.

Even then there are a lot of things we know are implied by the RH, it would be useful.

>> No.9301194

>>9301168
Well, the only thing that actually matters in the world is number theory so here is a thing. It was proven by my main man, Euler, that [eqn]\zeta(s) = \prod_{p \text{ prime}} \frac{1}{1 - p^{-s}} [/eqn]

And this is a product over all the prime numbers, which means the Riemann Zeta function is closely related to prime numbers. Now, to put things simply, imagine how useful it would be if we had another product representation of the Riemann Zeta function. It would be pretty useful because we could directly link the two products and start probing to see what happens (which has been done, assuming RH is true).

Well, in what ways can you write a function as an infinite product? That's right. By it's roots. For example, [eqn] \frac{\sin x}{x} = \prod_{n=1}^{\infty} 1 - \left(\frac{x}{n \pi} \right)^2 [/eqn].

So if we had all the roots of the Riemann zeta function we could write it as another infinite product. And more realistically, if we instead of explicitly having all the roots at least had some information about the distribution and bounds on those roots then that would also be very useful.

And those are the basics of why you can prove so much shit about prime numbers by studying the Riemann zeta function. Infinite products.

Have you entertained the possibility that you have made a mistake in the course of your proof? If your advisor were to inform you that you had made a mistake, and you came to understand the reality of the mistake as a material invalidation of what you had attempted to prove, what would you do? Would you keep it to yourself, or would you publish your abortive effort yourself anyway?

Why are people being mean to you on the internet? Is it because they perceive you to be a crank, because you actually are a crank, or something else? Like literally nigger turn away from the screen lol

I must tell you that I don't sincerely believe that you have done what you claim to have done. That said, math is a young man's game, and so it's not inconceivable that some weirdo who thinks to post here of all places in conneciton with such an important matter might have actually done it. Let's hope you don't get scooped, if you're being truthful. Wiles also had a mistake and then finally got it fixed, apparently.

The Riemann Hypothesis is well-known as being one of the great unsolved problems in mathematics. Lots of people have been trying very hard to prove it for about 150 years, since Riemann was an active mathematician. The fame of the problem and the many failed attempts have led to a well-justified skepticism among mathematicians about actual proposed proofs. A /sci/ meme over the past year or two involved something about an African mathematician who had (apparently) claimed to prove it, and the pictures related to this were like high-school-tier math and so not credible.

The Riemann Hypothesis involves both number theory and complex analysis, which are considered to be important branches of math today.

Basically, there's a plane of numbers, called "the complex plane". This plane contains the ordinary real number-system as one of its axes. Then you have this complicated math formula (the Riemann zeta function), which can be this-or-that formula, depending on what domain you're talking about. You can take any complex number in the complex plane, and plug it into this function. Sometimes, what you get back is simply 0. The conjecture to be proven, is that every time that what you get back is zero from this complicated process, the complex number lies on a single line in the complex plane.

I'll let others talk about this if they want to, I was too wordy with it just now.

>> No.9301336

>>9301334

One more thing: Lots of theorems in math have been proven to be true, /contingent on the Riemann Hypothesis/. That means, that "well, if the Riemann Hypothesis is true, then this other thing over here is absolutely true as well." The missing piece is in knowing whether the Riemann Hypothesis is actually true, that is, whether the premise for such results is in fact true. If it is, then lots of other fun theorems are true. If not, then it ruins the whole business.

This is a bit above my pay grade, but I wonder whether RH might be provably undecidable, somehow.

>> No.9301343

Why is it so hard to prove?

>> No.9301452

>>9301343

The simple and unsatisfying answer is that no one has figured out how to do it it. We just don't know! If it were easy to prove, then it would very probably have been proven by now, but it hasn't been, despite intense thought and effort.

Mathematicians have tricks about certain areas of math, and often you can combine your tricks in a chain of logical reasoning to prove even more stuff. Often, if you're working in math, you have a general idea from experience about what kind of tricks, put together, might work (I had this again myself in a brainlet problem I was interested in the other day, it's Pascal's triangle and combinations). But it doesn't always pan out that way. IIRC Differential Equations is an area of math where a certain cookbook of tricks are known, but there's also plenty of unknown stuff. Same sort of thing, people just have to keep attacking it.

No practical use? It would prove many theorems in number theory. The RH on its own would allow us to prove many new bounds for arithmetic functions. And the GRH will even give us a lot of algebraic theorems.

But if by application you mean engineering then no. I mean, why would you need RH in engineering when you already have the fundamental theorem of engineering, [math] \pi = 3 = e [/math]

Okay guys, you've been nice so it's finally time for the big reveal.

All it takes to prove it is taking your wallet and assuming the axiom 1+1=2 to be false, which then opens up a rift to an alien dimension filled with humans like us, except completely black. What you do then is take our your wallet, put it on the floor, close your eyes and meditate for a whole year, not eating nor drinking, no muscle movement, not even shitposting.
Then, at last, when the year has ended you will find as you open your eyes that the wallet and black alien humanoids are gone. How can that be? Matter only teleports in the quantum level. And that's when you realize- NEVER trust niggers.

And respecting scientist would see the conflict of interest in the counter argument and experiments run by the people trying to prove the other person wrong.
Quite similar to the cases on atrazine pesticide. "what do you mean our world wide pesticide has negative reactions? Every time we pay the EPA to run tests they find nothing!"

Went to the DC Holocaust museum a few months ago. They literally told us how they would shove dozens of body's into that tiny furnace and they would be "Instantly cremated" "sometimes burning up to 1000 bodies per over per day." man, why even bother with mass Graves if you could just vaporize that number of people in a single day?
The people in the group I was with when I mentioned not even today's crematoriums could do that started agreeing how wrong it seemed and how it was just started to seem like propaganda, and these were fucking SJW liberal arts majors for shit like ASL and jewelry Fabrication, the kind of people that believed in "boo capitalism we need communism" . If they can't be convinced maybe reestablish your lies at least.
