Abstract The $2 q$-th pseudomoment $\Psi _{2q,\alpha }(x)$ of the $\alpha $-th power of the Riemann zeta function is defined to be the $2 q$-th moment of the partial sum up to $x$ of $\zeta ^\alpha $ on the critical line. Using probabilistic methods of Harper, we prove upper and lower bounds for these pseudomoments when $q \le \frac{1}{2}$ and $\alpha \ge 1$. Combined with results of Bondarenko et al., these bounds determine the size of all pseudomoments with $q> 0$ and $\alpha \ge 1$ up to powers of $\log \log x$, where $x$ is the length of the partial sum, and it turns out that there are three different ranges with different growth behaviours. In particular, the results give the order of magnitude of $\Psi _{2 q, 1}(x)$ for all $q> 0$.

AbstractOn the basis of the Random Matrix Theory-model several interesting conjectures for the Riemann zeta-function were made during the recent past, in particular, asymptotic formulae for the 2kth continuous and discrete moments of the zeta-function on the critical line, $$ \frac{1} {T}\int\limits_0^T {|\zeta (\tfrac{1} {2} + it)|^{2k} dt} and \frac{1} {{N(T)}}\sum\limits_{0 < \gamma \leqslant {\rm T}} {|\zeta (\tfrac{1} {2} + i(\gamma + \tfrac{\alpha } {L}))|^{2k} } $$, by Conrey, Keating et al. and Hughes, respectively. These conjectures are known to be true only for a few values of k and, even under assumption of the Riemann hypothesis, estimates of the expected order of magnitude are only proved for a limited range of k. We put the discrete moment for k = 1, 2 in relation with the corresponding continuous moment for the derivative of Hardy’s Z-function. This leads to upper bounds for the discrete moments which are off the predicted order by a factor of log T.

Bounds on the number of simple zeros of the derivatives of a function are used to give bounds on the number of distinct zeros of the function.
