We demonstrate that the supremum of the  parts of the zeros of the Riemann zeta function is equal to 1. In particular, this dosproves the Riemann hypothesis. 


PS: The current version is not exactly a revision of any of the previous few versions. It only makes the proof of Theorem 2 a bit more rigorous. In particular, v.185 rectifies the typo on the integral defining q, which must not have a negative coefficient.


UPDATE (7/3/2023). The argument relies on the currently unproven assumption that the function tau(sigma) in (16) is real-analytic for sigma > Theta. Thus, the proof is currently conditional in this assumption. 

Note that tau(sigma) is indeed real-analytic for sigma >1, since both f(sigma) and g(sigma) are (as can be seen from (5) and (6) respectively). Thus, as is usually the case with functions dependent on -\zeta'(s)/zeta(s) - (s-1)^{-1}, one would indeed expect the (real) analyticity to extend to sigma >Theta. There seem to be also other ways to prove Theorem 2. This paper is currently work in progress.

UPDATE (07/

04/2023). The author has now managed to fix the issue mentioned in the first . This was achieved by a shorter and entirely different approach, that also works for the entire family of Dirichlet L-functions.
