If we examine the increasingly larger peak values of |Z(x)|, we find they occur with values of x such that Z'(x) = 0 near to integers, so that there is a sequence of [[EDO|edo]]s | If we examine the increasingly larger peak values of |Z(x)|, we find they occur with values of x such that Z'(x) = 0 near to integers, so that there is a sequence of [[EDO|edo]]s | ||
{{EDOs|1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 10, 12, 19, 22, 27, 31, 41, 53, 72, 99, 118, 130, 152, 171, 217, 224, 270, 342, 422, 441, 494, 742, 764, 935, 954, 1012, 1106, 1178, 1236, 1395, 1448, 1578, 2460, 2684, 3395, 5585, 6079, 7033, 8269, 8539, 11664, 14348, 16808, 28742, 34691,}} ... of ''zeta peak edos''. This is listed in the On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences as {{OEIS|A117536}}. | |||
Alternatively, if we demand no octave stretching and thus only look at the record peaks corresponding to exact EDOs, we get {{EDOs|1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 10, 12, 19, 22, 31, 41, 53, 87, 118, 130, 171, 224, 270, 311, 472, 494,}} ... of ''zeta peak integer EDOs''. EDOs in this list not included in the previous are {{EDOs|87, 311, 472,}} ... and EDOs not included in this list but included in the previous are {{EDOs|27, 72, 99, 152, 217, 342, 422, 441,}} ... with 72's removal perhaps being the most surprising, showing the strength of 53 in that 72 does not improve on the peak of 53. | |||
Finally, taking the midpoints of the successively larger normalized gaps between the zeros of Z leads to a list of ''zeta gap edos''. These are | Similarly, if we take the integral of |Z(x)| between successive zeros, and use this to define a sequence of increasing values for this integral, these again occur near integers and define an edo. This sequence, the ''zeta integral edos'', goes {{EDOs|2, 5, 7, 12, 19, 31, 41, 53, 72, 130, 171, 224, 270, 764, 954, 1178, 1395, 1578, 2684, 3395, 7033, 8269, 8539, 14348, 16808, 36269, 58973,}} ... This is listed in the OEIS as {{OEIS|A117538}}. The zeta integral edos seem to be, on the whole, the best of the zeta function sequences, but the other two should not be discounted; the peak values seem to give more weight to the lower primes, and the zeta gap sequence discussed below to the higher primes. | ||
Finally, taking the midpoints of the successively larger normalized gaps between the zeros of Z leads to a list of ''zeta gap edos''. These are {{EDOs|2, 3, 5, 7, 12, 19, 31, 46, 53, 72, 270, 311, 954, 1178, 1308, 1395, 1578, 3395, 4190,}} ... Since the density of the zeros increases logarithmically, the normalization is to divide through by the log of the midpoint. These edos are listed in the OEIS as {{OEIS|A117537}}. The zeta gap edos seem to weight higher primes more heavily and have the advantage of being easy to compute from a table of zeros on the critical line. | |||
