On the Motion of Zeros of Zeta Functions

Abstract

The motion in the complex plane of the zeros to various zeta functions is investigated numerically. First the Hurwitz zeta function is considered and an accurate formula for the distribution of its zeros is suggested. Then functions which are linear combinations of different Hurwitz zeta functions, and have a symmetric distribution of their zeros with respect to the critical line, are examined. Finally the existence of the hypothetical non-trivial Riemann zeros with $Re(s)\neq 1/2$ is discussed.
