Number Field Analogue of Jacobi Theta Relation And Zeros of Dedekind zeta function on Re$(s)=1/2$
Abstract
In 1914, Hardy proved that there are infinitely many non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$ on the critical line Re$(s)=1/2$ using the Jacobi theta relation. In this paper, we first establish a number field analogue of the Jacobi theta relation and as an application, we show the existence of infinitely many non-trivial zeros of the Dedekind zeta function $\zeta_\mathbb{F}(s)$ on Re$(s)=1/2$, for any number field $\mathbb{F}$. Quite interestingly, we also prove that the Jacobi theta relation is equivalent to an intriguing identity of Hardy, Littlewood and Ramanujan.
