What is the Riemann Hypothesis?
This video provides a basic introduction to the Riemann Hypothesis based on the the superb book 'Prime Obsession' by John Derbyshire. Along the way I look at convergent and divergent series, Euler's famous solution to the Basel problem, and the Riemann-Zeta function. Analytic continuation

The Riemann Hypothesis, Explained
The Riemann hypothesis is the most notorious unsolved problem in all of mathematics. Ever since it was first proposed by Bernhard Riemann in 1859, the conjecture has maintained the status of the "Holy Grail" of mathematics. In fact, the person who solves it will win a $1 million prize from

A (compelling?) reason for the Riemann Hypothesis to be true #SOME2
A visual walkthrough of the Riemann Zeta function and a claim of a good reason for the truth of the Riemann Hypothesis. This is not a formal proof but I believe the line of argument could lead to a formal proof.

The Riemann Hypothesis and a New Math Tool (a new Indeterminate form)
In this video, you will see a mistake made by many(*) mathematicians. Also, you will see a simple proof for a new(**) indeterminate form that has an incredible connection to the Riemann hypothesis. Lastly, you will see a route to a new promising math tool to solve problems like the Rieman

Mertens Conjecture Disproof and the Riemann Hypothesis | MegaFavNumbers
#MegaFavNumbers The Mertens conjecture is a conjecture is a conjecture about the distribution of the prime numbers. It can be seen as a stronger version of the Riemann hypothesis. It says that the Mertens function is bounded by sqrt(n). The Riemann hypothesis on the other hand only require

Factorials, prime numbers, and the Riemann Hypothesis
Today we introduce some of the ideas of analytic number theory, and employ them to help us understand the size of n!. We use that understanding to discover a surprisingly accurate picture of the distribution of the prime numbers, and explore how this fits into the broader context of one o

Some identities involving the Riemann-Zeta function.
After introducing the Riemann-Zeta function we derive a generating function for its values at positive even integers. This generating function is used to prove two sum identities. http://www.michael-penn.net http://www.randolphcollege.edu/mathematics/
