In summary, the conversation is about the recommendation of a journal called "Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and General" for publishing an article on the Riemann Hypothesis. The journal accepts articles in .doc format and has a website where the article can be accessed. The article discusses an operator H=cD^2+V(x) and its eigenvalues which are the roots of \zeta(a+is). The potential V(x) can be written in the form \int_{-\infty}^{\infty}dnR(n,x)\delta{E(n)} and depends on the parameter a. The conversation also includes doubts about the credibility of the journal and the method used to prove the Riemann Hypo

hello i would like to open this post to recommend the english journal "Journal of Physics:A General mathematics", they have published my article in spite of me being a non-english speaker,they accept paper in .doc (Microsoft Word) format, when i give me the web address for my article i will put it in the forum...in fct is about RH i find an operator

[tex]H=cD^{2}+V(x) [/tex] so all its eigenvalues are the roots of [tex]\zeta(a+is)[/tex] where the potential can be written to first order in the form:

[tex]V(x)=\int_{-\infty}^{\infty}dnR(n,x)\delta{E(n)}[/tex]

with E_n the roots of [tex]\zeta(a+is)[/tex] so the potential will depend also on a,for a different from 1/2 we have complex energies in the form [tex]E*_{n}+(2a-1)i[/tex] so the potential is complex and a complex potential can not have real roots then necessarily all the roots of [tex]\zeta(a+is)[/tex] have real part a=1/2

wow, you can expect that million dollars then, if it is indeed prestigious.

no chance that it's a bad jounral? i can name two such vanity journals, one now defunct called the SWAPM, as well as that one run by the society of egomaniacs.
that was incredibly quickly reviewd by the way; usually it takes a months if not a year or two. have they accpeted submission or are you saying that they are gonig to publish it?

and if your result is as stated then it is false (you never explain why the trivial zeroes are magically not detected), as we keep pointing out to you.

edit: looks genuine; i know someone at IoP.

edit: nope, that was a differernt journal.

how about giving us the journal's home page?

i don,t want to enter in discussion with you as surely Hurkyl would close the thread in that case,(please Hurkyl i promise not to insult anybody and to answer all the critics politely)..

the web addres: http://www.iop.org/EJ/journal/0305-4470

As i said the non-trivial zeros satisfy that if [tex]\zeta(1/2+is)[/tex] is a zero,then also [tex]\zeta(1/2+is*)[/tex] is also a zero (and this only happens for the non-trivial zeros),try with a trivial zero,it will of the form: (2n+1/2)i being n an integer (sorry if the sign is not correct at all) then you have that its conjugate (2n+1/2)(-i) is not a zero..the example is that -2 is a zero but 3 is not,-4 is a zero but 5 not and so on...

and as for the potential i have calculated in the integral form given...

[tex]V(x)=\int_{R}dnR(n,x)\delta{E(n)} [/tex]

i don,t know if the journal is serious or not..they have referees..and yes they have rejected some of my manuscripts,i think you should visit the journal by yourself to raise an opinion.

i don,t think i will earn the 1000000$ prize but perhaps due to have an article published my math and physics teachers will take me into consideration and give the opportunity to do my PhD... i think that the prize should be distributed among those like me have made a real proof of RH.

that is the one i found. your paper wasn't listed on those published this month, nor on the list of those to be published. if it is published i look forward to reading it.

so, they have accepted it for publication, not just for review?


your comment on the non trivial zeroes doesn't answer anything by the way. you have merely by fiat declared that the zeroes not on the critical line are the trivial ones and the trivial ones alone. I need a reason why it picks out exactly the non-trivial zeroes in terms of its definition as a function of zeta.

As i have said before this method is well known already (an approach of Berry et al, using Random Matrix Theory for example), so i have no problem with this being theoretically possible; I have issues with the fact that you've never explained it in way that can be understood.

the journal title is, incidentally, Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and General. Not the title you gave, hence the confusion.

As for the zeroes as i explained before if s is a zero so [tex]\zeta(1/2+is)=0[/tex] then also [tex]\zeta(1/2+is*)=0[/tex] but this argument is only valid for the non-trivial zeros because s=(2n+1/2)i is a zero but s*=(2n+1/2)(-i) is not.

if you think this journal is not "respectable" i wil send my manuscript to "Physical review letters" journal, ah and i have scanned the copyright agreement for the "Journal of Physics" i will put it in an attached file when i receive it...

As for the method of mine being used , as i said before if the method of Random Matrices or other quantum or math method used to prove RH is true then i wouldn,t mind sharing the prize in case they consider it that all method exposed are valid.

IoP is a very respectable institution.

Your explanation for the non-trivial zeroes is still flawed. From first reading It presumes that all the non-trivial zeroes lie on the critical line, which is what the Riemann hypthesis asks you to prove. Why must the non-trivial zeroes satsify your criterion for s and s*? YOu've given no reason for this, still.

I'm going to guess that this has something to do with the known analytic properties of the zeta function (though not known to me; this is one of the common problems in your presentation: you never explain what's going on clearly). That is in the critical region there is some symmetry such that any zeroes are placed with refelective symmetry in the real axis and the line re(z)=1/2. Is that what you're appealing to? If so, state that, that is all you had to do.

Now, given that is true, then how do you conclude that the potential so produced gives an hermitian operator so that the zeroes are necessarily real?

So, to summarize, we have a function,c all it f, here f(s)=zeta(1/2+is), and a (sub)set of its zeroes that is colsed under conjugation, ie s is a zero iff s* is a zero. Now, you magic a potential V(x) so that there is a differential operator

[tex]L=\partial^2_x + V(x)[/tex]

so that L's sepctrum is precisely these zeroes.

Fine, but now you conclude that L is hermitian so that the s must be real.

However, going frmo memory, there is nothing to stop me doing the same thing to the function [itex]g(s)=\sin(2\pi is)[/itex], certainly (a relevany subset of) its zeroes are closed under conjugation, apply this construction of yours and conclude that all the zeroes are real. However we know that is false. So what properties of the zeta function did you use to conclude that L was hermitian?

first of all is proved that the non-trivial zeroes have real part a with 0<a<1 (are on this critical strip) this is a proved result in number theory.

second you say [tex]g(s)=sin(2i\pi{s}) [/tex] that has its roots as s=ni (they are pure complex numbers) but with the non-trivial zeros does not happen the same as they can not be pure imaginary,the zeros of [tex]\zeta(1/2+is)[/tex] can,t be purely imaginary as if s=b(n)i then would exist a b(n) so [tex]\zeta(1/2-b(n))=0[/tex] and this only happens with the trivial zeros of Riemann function... but not with the non trivial ones.

and other thing the case that s and s* are roots of [tex]\zeta(a+is)[/tex] only happens with a=1/2 for the other cases are complex energies in the form
s*+(2a-1)i so the only possibility of the zeroes being real is a=1/2 for your function try with a function [tex]f(a+ix)[/tex] with f and a real,you can,t find any counterexample with x and x* being roots of it and x being imaginary...

ah and in case there are non-trivial roots of [tex]\zeta(1/2+is)[/tex] then their complex part must satisfy [tex]|b(n)|<1/2[/tex] as the non-trivial roots of the Riemann function [tex]\zeta(s)[/tex] have real part 0<Re(s)<1
and for the cases [tex]\zeta(a+is)[/tex] we have the expression for the potential: [tex]V(x)=\int_{\Re}dnR(n,x)\delta{E(n)}[/tex] we have that for a different from 1/2 are energies of the form s*+(2a-1)i so the potential will be complex..but a complex potential can not have real roots as using Ehrenfrest.s theorem [tex]i\hbar{d<b>}=<[H,b]>dt [/tex] x and p do not commute so the expected value of b (the complex part of the potential is never 0 so there are no real energies for the case [tex]\zeta(a+is)[/tex].

you really need to improve the standard of your presentation. I am not sufficiently interested to try and decode what you're talking about there (you repeatedly use s to mean different things). I still can't see anything which rules out applying your method to the function sin(is): the zeroes are symmetrically distributed about some line (if it bothers you about them being pure imaginary try a more interesting change of variable).

:mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: these f**** journal has cheated on me..they said they were going to publish my manuscript and noww i have received a message saying it had been an error and rejecting my manuscript,these snobs don,t want to publish my papers,perhaps if i were a famous teacher the RH would have been solved months ago..

If you are interested for the case a=1/2 in [tex]\zeta(1/2+is)[/tex] the REAL potential is:

[tex]\int_{-\infty}^{\infty}dnR(x,n)[g(n)+g*(n)-E_{n}^0] [/tex]

where g(n) is [tex]g(n)=\sum_{p}\alpha(n)C(n)\delta(n-p) [/tex]

with [tex]C(n)=i[1/2-\zeta^{-1}_{n}(0)] [/tex]

the sum "p" is made over integers so g(n) generates the roots a(n)+ib(n) with ab>0 and the case ab=0

and alpha is a function with value 1 if C is complex and 1/2 if C is real.

Eljose, you always bring a smile to my face.
 

Related to What is the Recommended Journal for Publishing in General Mathematics?

What factors should I consider when choosing a journal to publish my research in?

When recommending a journal, there are several factors to consider. First, make sure the journal is reputable and has a strong impact factor. Additionally, consider the scope of the journal and whether it aligns with your research topic. You should also look at the turnaround time for peer review and publication, as well as any publication fees or open access options.

How can I find a journal that is a good fit for my research?

To find a suitable journal, you can use online databases and search engines specifically designed for academic journals. These tools allow you to filter by subject area, impact factor, and other criteria. You can also browse through recent publications in your field to see which journals are frequently cited and read.

What is the difference between open access and traditional publishing?

Open access journals allow for free and immediate access to published articles, while traditional publishing often requires a subscription or payment to access the content. Open access journals also typically have a more liberal copyright policy, allowing authors to retain more control over their work. However, traditional journals may have a higher impact factor and may be more prestigious in certain research fields.

Should I consider the journal's audience when choosing where to publish?

Yes, it is important to consider the target audience of the journal when recommending a journal for your research. Some journals may cater to a specific audience, such as practitioners or academics in a particular field. Publishing in a journal with a relevant audience can increase the visibility and impact of your research.

What are the potential benefits and drawbacks of publishing in a new or lesser-known journal?

Publishing in a new or lesser-known journal can have both advantages and disadvantages. On one hand, it may be easier to get published in a new journal as they may have less competition and lower standards. However, the lack of a strong reputation and impact factor may limit the visibility and reach of your research. It is important to carefully evaluate the potential benefits and drawbacks before choosing to publish in a new or lesser-known journal.
