Three dusty old cowboys walk into a bar. The bartender says, "If you solve the Riemann hypothesis, you get tenure anywhere you want."

Fractional Distance: The Topology of the Real Number Line with Applications to the Riemann Hypothesis
>https://vixra.org/abs/2111.0072

Recent analysis has uncovered a broad swath of rarely considered real numbers called real numbers in the neighborhood of infinity. Here we extend the catalog of the rudimentary analytical properties of all real numbers by defining a set of fractional distance functions on the real number line and studying their behavior. The main results of are (1) to prove with modest axioms that some real numbers are greater than any natural number, (2) to develop a technique for taking a limit at infinity via the ordinary Cauchy definition reliant on the classical epsilon-delta formalism, and (3) to demonstrate an infinite number of non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function in the neighborhood of infinity. We define numbers in the neighborhood of infinity as Cartesian products of Cauchy equivalence classes of rationals. We axiomatize the arithmetic of such numbers, prove all the operations are well-defined, and then make comparisons to the similar axioms of a complete ordered field. After developing the many underlying foundations, we present a basis for a topology.

math phd couldn't get tenure and is a bartender, I think. Joke probably would have been clearer if it were something along the lines of:
"an american, a german, and an italian walk into a starbucks. The barista says, 'If you solve the Riemann hypothesis, you get tenure anywhere you want.'"

>Getting tenure
If I solve it, just give me the money desu.

It still doesn’t make sense.

More like the Reimann BETA function. Nerds.
