Given a complex function \(f\), we define the function
Let \(f\) be a complex function and let \(z\neq 0\). Then, with \(g\) defined as in Definition 20,
This follows directly from the definition of \(g\).
Let \(f\) be a complex function analytic on an open set \(s\) containing \(0\) such that \(f(0)=0\). Then, with \(g\) defined as in Definition 20, \(g\) is analytic on \(s\).
We need to show that \(g\) is complex differentiable at every point in \(s\). For \(z\neq 0\), this follows directly from the definition of \(g\) and the fact that \(f\) is analytic on \(s\). For \(z=0\), we use the definition of the derivative and the fact that \(f(0)=0\):
where the last equality follows from the definition of the derivative of \(f\) at \(0\). Thus, \(g\) is complex differentiable at \(0\) with derivative \(0\), completing the proof.
Let \(f\) be a complex function analytic on the closed ball \(\abs {z}\leq R\) such that \(f(0)=0\). Then, with \(g\) defined as in Definition 20, \(g\) is analytic on \(\abs {z}\leq R\).
The proof is similar to that of Lemma 100, but we need to consider two cases: when \(x\) is on the boundary of the closed ball and when it is in the interior. In the first case, we take a small open ball around \(x\) that lies entirely within the closed ball, and apply Lemma 100 on this smaller ball. In the second case, we can take the entire open ball centered at \(0\) with radius \(R\), and again apply Lemma 100. In both cases, we use the fact that \(f(0)=0\) to ensure that the removable singularity at \(0\) is handled correctly.
Given a complex function \(f\) and a real number \(M\), we define the function
where \(g\) is defined as in Definition 20.
Let \(M{\gt}0\). Let \(f\) be analytic on the closed ball \(\abs {z}\leq R\) such that \(f(0)=0\) and suppose that \(2M - f(z)\neq 0\) for all \(\abs {z}\leq R\). Then, with \(f_{M}\) defined as in Definition 21, \(f_{M}\) is analytic on \(\abs {z}\leq R\).
This follows directly from Lemma 101 and the fact that the difference of two analytic functions is analytic.
Let \(M{\gt}0\) and let \(x\) be a complex number such that \(\Re x\leq M\). Then, \(\abs {x}\leq \abs {2M - x}\).
We square both sides and simplify to obtain the equivalent inequality
which follows directly from the assumption \(\Re x\leq M\) and the positivity of \(M\).
Let \(R,\, M{\gt}0\). Let \(f\) be analytic on \(\abs {z}\leq R\) such that \(f(0)=0\) and suppose \(\Re f(z)\leq M\) for all \(\abs {z}\leq R\). Then for any \(0 {\lt} r {\lt} R\),
This upstreamed from https://github.com/math-inc/strongpnt/tree/main
Let \(R,\, M{\gt}0\). Let \(f\) be analytic on \(|z|\leq R\) such that \(f(0)=0\) and suppose \(\Re f(z)\leq M\) for all \(|z|\leq R\). Then for any \(0 {\lt} r {\lt} R\),
Let
Note that \(2M-f(z)\neq 0\) because \(\Re (2M-f(z))=2M-\Re f(z)\geq M{\gt}0\). Additionally, since \(f(z)\) has a zero at \(0\), we know that \(f(z)/z\) is analytic on \(|z|\leq R\). Likewise, \(f_M(z)\) is analytic on \(|z|\leq R\).
Now note that \(|f(z)|\leq |2M-f(z)|\) since \(\Re f(z)\leq M\). Thus we have that
Now by the maximum modulus principle, we know the maximum of \(|f_M|\) must occur on the boundary where \(|z|=R\). Thus, \(|f_M(z)|\leq 1/R\) for all \(|z|\leq R\). So for \(|z|=r\) we have
Which by algebraic manipulation gives
Once more, by the maximum modulus principle, we know the maximum of \(|f|\) must occur on the boundary where \(|z|=r\). Thus, the desired result immediately follows
Let \(R,\, M{\gt}0\) and \(0 {\lt} r {\lt} r' {\lt} R\). Let \(f\) be analytic on \(|z|\leq R\) such that \(f(0)=0\) and suppose \(\Re f(z)\leq M\) for all \(|z|\leq R\). Then we have that
for all \(|z|\leq r\).
By Cauchy’s integral formula we know that
Thus,
Now applying Theorem 25, and noting that \(r'-r\leq |r'e^{it}-z|\), we have that
Substituting this into Equation (3) and evaluating the integral completes the proof.
Let \(R,\, M{\gt}0\). Let \(f\) be analytic on \(|z|\leq R\) such that \(f(0)=0\) and suppose \(\Re f(z)\leq M\) for all \(|z|\leq R\). Then for any \(0 {\lt} r {\lt} R\),
for all \(|z|\leq r\).
Using Lemma 104 with \(r'=(R+r)/2\), and noting that \(r {\lt} R\), we have that
Let \(0 {\lt} r {\lt} R{\lt}1\). Let \(B:\overline{\mathbb {D}_R}\to \mathbb {C}\) be analytic on neighborhoods of points in \(\overline{\mathbb {D}_R}\) with \(B(z)\neq 0\) for all \(z\in \overline{\mathbb {D}_R}\). Then there exists \(J_B:\overline{\mathbb {D}_r}\to \mathbb {C}\) that is analytic on neighborhoods of points in \(\overline{\mathbb {D}_r}\) such that
\(J_B(0)=0\)
\(J_B'(z)=B'(z)/B(z)\)
\(\log |B(z)|-\log |B(0)|=\Re J_B(z)\)
for all \(z\in \overline{\mathbb {D}_r}\).
We let \(J_B(z)=\mathrm{Log}\, B(z)-\mathrm{Log}\, B(0)\). Then clearly, \(J_B(0)=0\) and \(J_B'(z)=B'(z)/B(z)\). Showing the third property is a little more difficult, but by no standards terrible. Exponentiating \(J_B(z)\) we have that
Now taking the modulus
Taking the real logarithm of both sides and rearranging gives the third point.
Let \(R{\gt}0\) and \(f:\overline{\mathbb {D}_R}\to \mathbb {C}\). Define the set of zeros \(\mathcal{K}_f(R)=\{ \rho \in \mathbb {C}:|\rho |\leq R,\, f(\rho )=0\} \).
Let \(0 {\lt} R{\lt}1\) and \(f:\mathbb {C}\to \mathbb {C}\) be analtyic on neighborhoods of points in \(\overline{\mathbb {D}_1}\). For any zero \(\rho \in \mathcal{K}_f(R)\), we define \(m_f(\rho )\) as the order of the zero \(\rho \) w.r.t \(f\).
Let \(f:\overline{\mathbb {D}_1}\to \mathbb {C}\) be analytic on neighborhoods of points in \(\overline{\mathbb {D}_1}\) with \(f(0)\neq 0\). For all \(\rho \in \mathcal{K}_f(1)\) there exists \(h_\rho (z)\) that is analytic at \(\rho \), \(h_\rho (\rho )\neq 0\), and \(f(z)=(z-\rho )^{m_f(\rho )}\, h_\rho (z)\).
Since \(f\) is analytic on neighborhoods of points in \(\overline{\mathbb {D}_1}\) we know that there exists a series expansion about \(\rho \):
Now if we let \(m\) be the smallest number such that \(a_m\neq 0\), then
Trivially, \(h_\rho (z)\) is analytic at \(\rho \) (we have written down the series expansion); now note that
Let \(0 {\lt} r {\lt} R{\lt}1\), and \(f:\overline{\mathbb {D}_1}\to \mathbb {C}\) be analytic on neighborhoods of points in \(\overline{\mathbb {D}_1}\) with \(f(0)\neq 0\). We define a function \(C_f:\overline{\mathbb {D}_R}\to \mathbb {C}\) as follows. This function is constructed by dividing \(f(z)\) by a polynomial whose roots are the zeros of \(f\) inside \(\overline{\mathbb {D}_r}\).
where \(h_z(z)\) comes from Lemma 105.
Let \(0 {\lt} r {\lt} R{\lt}1\), and \(f:\overline{\mathbb {D}_1}\to \mathbb {C}\) be analytic on neighborhoods of points in \(\overline{\mathbb {D}_1}\) with \(f(0)\neq 0\). We define a function \(B_f:\overline{\mathbb {D}_R}\to \mathbb {C}\) as follows.
Let \(0 {\lt} r {\lt} R{\lt}1\), and \(f:\overline{\mathbb {D}_1}\to \mathbb {C}\) be analytic on neighborhoods of points in \(\overline{\mathbb {D}_1}\) with \(f(0)\neq 0\). Then
Since \(f(0)\neq 0\), we know that \(0\not\in \mathcal{K}_f(r)\). Thus,
Thus, substituting this into Definition 25,
Let \(B{\gt}1\) and \(0 {\lt} R{\lt}1\). If \(f:\mathbb {C}\to \mathbb {C}\) is a function analytic on neighborhoods of points in \(\overline{\mathbb {D}_1}\) with \(|f(z)|\leq B\) for \(|z|\leq R\), then \(|B_f(z)|\leq B\) for \(|z|\leq R\) also.
For \(|z|=R\), we know that \(z\not\in \mathcal{K}_f(r)\). Thus,
Thus, substituting this into Definition 25,
But note that
So we have that \(|B_f(z)|=|f(z)|\leq B\) when \(|z|=R\). Now by the maximum modulus principle, we know that the maximum of \(|B_f|\) must occur on the boundary where \(|z|=R\). Thus \(|B_f(z)|\leq B\) for all \(|z|\leq R\).
Let \(B{\gt}1\) and \(0{\lt} r {\lt} R{\lt}1\). If \(f:\mathbb {C}\to \mathbb {C}\) is a function analytic on neighborhoods of points in \(\overline{\mathbb {D}_1}\) with \(f(0)=1\) and \(|f(z)|\leq B\) for \(|z|\leq R\), then
Since \(f(0)=1\), we know that \(0\not\in \mathcal{K}_f(r)\). Thus,
Thus, substituting this into Definition 25,
whereby Lemma 107 we know that \(|B_f(z)|\leq B\) for all \(|z|\leq R\). Taking the logarithm of both sides and rearranging gives the desired result.
Let \(0 {\lt} r {\lt} R{\lt}1\) and \(f:\overline{\mathbb {D}_1}\to \mathbb {C}\) be analytic on neighborhoods of points in \(\overline{\mathbb {D}_1}\). Then \(B_f(z)\neq 0\) for all \(z\in \overline{\mathbb {D}_r}\).
Suppose that \(z\in \mathcal{K}_f(r)\). Then we have that
where \(h_z(z)\neq 0\) according to Lemma 105. Thus, substituting this into Definition 25,
Trivially, \(|h_z(z)|\neq 0\). Now note that
However, this is a contradiction because \(z\in \overline{\mathbb {D}_r}\) tells us that \(|z|\leq r {\lt} R\). Similarly, note that
However, this is also a contradiction because \(\rho \in \mathcal{K}_f(r)\) tells us that \(R {\lt} R^2/|\overline{\rho }|=|z|\), but \(z\in \overline{\mathbb {D}_r}\) tells us that \(|z|\leq r {\lt} R\). So, we know that
Applying this to Equation (6) we have that \(|B_f(z)|\neq 0\). So, \(B_f(z)\neq 0\).
Now suppose that \(z\not\in \mathcal{K}_f(r)\). Then we have that
Thus, substituting this into Definition 25,
We know that \(|f(z)|\neq 0\) since \(z\not\in \mathcal{K}_f(r)\). Now note that
However, this is a contradiction because \(\rho \in \mathcal{K}_f(r)\) tells us that \(R {\lt} R^2/|\overline{\rho }|=|z|\), but \(z\in \overline{\mathbb {D}_r}\) tells us that \(|z|\leq r {\lt} R\). So, we know that
Applying this to Equation (7) we have that \(|B_f(z)|\neq 0\). So, \(B_f(z)\neq 0\).
We have shown that \(B_f(z)\neq 0\) for both \(z\in \mathcal{K}_f(r)\) and \(z\not\in \mathcal{K}_f(r)\), so the result follows.
Let \(B{\gt}1\) and \(0 {\lt} r' {\lt} r {\lt} R{\lt}1\). If \(f:\mathbb {C}\to \mathbb {C}\) is a function analytic on neighborhoods of points in \(\overline{\mathbb {D}_1}\) with \(f(0)=1\) and \(|f(z)|\leq B\) for all \(|z|\leq R\), then for all \(|z|\leq r'\)
By Lemma 107 we immediately know that \(|B_f(z)|\leq B\) for all \(|z|\leq R\). Now since \(L_f=J_{B_f}\) by Definition 26, by Theorem 27 we know that
for all \(|z|\leq r\). So by Theorem 26, it follows that
for all \(|z|\leq r'\).
Let \(B{\gt}1\) and \(0 {\lt} r' {\lt} r {\lt} R' {\lt} R{\lt}1\). If \(f:\mathbb {C}\to \mathbb {C}\) is a function analytic on neighborhoods of points in \(\overline{\mathbb {D}_1}\) with \(f(0)=1\) and \(|f(z)|\leq B\) for all \(|z|\leq R\), then for all \(z\in \overline{\mathbb {D}_{R'}}\setminus \mathcal{K}_f(R')\) we have
Since \(z\in \overline{\mathbb {D}_{r'}}\setminus \mathcal{K}_f(R')\) we know that \(z\not\in \mathcal{K}_f(R')\); thus, by Definition 24 we know that
Substituting this into Definition 25 we have that
Taking the complex logarithm of both sides we have that
Taking the derivative of both sides we have that
By Definition 26 and Theorem 27 we recall that
Taking the derivative of both sides we have that \(L_f'(z)=(B_f'/B_f)(z)\). Thus,
Now since \(z\in \overline{\mathbb {D}_{R'}}\) and \(\rho \in \mathcal{K}_f(R')\), we know that \(R^2/R'-R'\leq |z-R^2/\rho |\). Thus by the triangle inequality we have
Now by Theorem 28 and 29 we get our desired result with a little algebraic manipulation.
For all \(t\in \mathbb {R}\) one has
From the Euler product expansion of \(\zeta \), we have that for \(\Re s{\gt}1\)
Thus, we have that
Now note that \(|1-p^{-(3/2+it)}|\leq 1+|p^{-(3/2+it)}|=1+p^{-3/2}\). Thus,
for all \(t\in \mathbb {R}\) as desired.
Let
We have that \(\zeta (s)=\zeta _0(s)\) for \(\sigma {\gt}1\).
Note that for \(\sigma {\gt}1\) we have
Thus
Now we note that
So, substituting this we have
But noting that \(\lfloor x\rfloor =x-\{ x\} \) we have that
Evaluating the first integral completes the result.
We have that \(\zeta _0(s)\) is analytic for all \(s\in S\) where \(S=\{ s\in \mathbb {C}:\Re s{\gt}0,\, s\neq 1\} \).
Note that we have
So this integral converges uniformly on compact subsets of \(S\), which tells us that it is analytic on \(S\). So it immediately follows that \(\zeta _0(s)\) is analytic on \(S\) as well, since \(S\) avoids the pole at \(s=1\) coming from the \((s-1)^{-1}\) term.
We have that
for all \(s\in S\).
This is an immediate consequence of the identity theorem.
For all \(s\in \mathbb {C}\) with \(|s|\leq 1\) and \(t\in \mathbb {R}\) with \(|t|\geq 3\), we have that
For the sake of clearer proof writing let \(z=s+3/2+it\). Since \(|s|\leq 1\) we know that \(1/2\leq \Re z\); additionally, as \(|t|\geq 3\), we know \(z\in S\). Thus, from Lemma 111 we know that
by applying the triangle inequality. Now note that \(|z-1|\geq 1\). Likewise,
Thus we have that,
Let \(t\in \mathbb {R}\) with \(|t|\geq 3\) and \(0 {\lt} r' {\lt} r {\lt} R' {\lt} R{\lt}1\). If \(f(z)=\zeta (z+3/2+it)\), then for all \(z\in \overline{\mathbb {D}_R'}\setminus \mathcal{K}_f(R')\) we have that
Let \(g(z)=\zeta (z+3/2+it)/\zeta (3/2+it)\). Note that \(g(0)=1\) and for \(|z|\leq R\)
by Theorems 31 and 32. Thus by Theorem 30 we have that
Now note that \(f'/f=g'/g\), \(\mathcal{K}_f(R')=\mathcal{K}_g(R')\), and \(m_g(\rho )=m_f(\rho )\) for all \(\rho \in \mathcal{K}_f(R')\). Thus we have that,
where the implied constant \(C\) is taken to be
Let \(\mathcal{Z}_t=\{ \rho \in \mathbb {C}:\zeta (\rho )=0,\, |\rho -(3/2+it)|\leq 5/6\} \).
For all \(\delta \in (0,1)\) and \(t\in \mathbb {R}\) with \(|t|\geq 3\) we have
We apply Theorem 33 where \(r'=2/3\), \(r=3/4\), \(R'=5/6\), and \(R=8/9\). Thus, for all \(z\in \overline{\mathbb {D}_{5/6}}\setminus \mathcal{K}_f(5/6)\) we have that
where \(f(z)=\zeta (z+3/2+it)\) for \(t\in \mathbb {R}\) with \(|t|\geq 3\). Now if we let \(z=-1/2+\delta \), then \(z\in (-1/2,1/2)\subseteq \overline{\mathbb {D}_{5/6}}\). Additionally, \(f(z)=\zeta (1+\delta +it)\), where \(1+\delta +it\) lies in the zero-free region where \(\sigma {\gt}1\). Thus, \(z\not\in \mathcal{K}_f(5/6)\). So,
But now note that if \(\rho \in \mathcal{K}_f(5/6)\), then \(\zeta (\rho +3/2+it)=0\) and \(|\rho |\leq 5/6\). Thus, \(\rho +3/2+it\in \mathcal{Z}_t\). Additionally, note that \(m_f(\rho )=m_\zeta (\rho +3/2+it)\). So changing variables using these facts gives us that
For all \(\delta \in (0,1)\) and \(t\in \mathbb {R}\) with \(|t|\geq 3\) we have
Note that, for \(\rho \in \mathcal{Z}_{2t}\)
Now since \(\rho \in \mathcal{Z}_{2t}\), we have that \(|\rho -(3/2+2it)|\leq 5/6\). So, we have \(\Re \rho \in (2/3,7/3)\) and \(\mathfrak {I}\rho \in (2t-5/6,2t+5/6)\). Thus, we have that
Which implies that
Note that, from Lemma 112, we have
Since \(m_\zeta (\rho )\geq 0\) for all \(\rho \in \mathcal{Z}_{2t}\), the inequality from Equation (8) tells us that by subtracting the sum from both sides we have
Noting that \(\log |2t|=\log (2)+\log |t|\leq 2\log |t|\) completes the proof.
There exists \(C{\gt}0\) such that for all \(\delta \in (0,1)\) and \(t\in \mathbb {R}\) with \(|t|\geq 3\); if \(\zeta (\rho )=0\) with \(\rho =\sigma +it\), then
Note that for \(\rho '\in \mathcal{Z}_t\)
Now since \(\rho '\in \mathcal{Z}_t\), we have that \(|\rho -(3/2+it)|\leq 5/6\). So, we have \(\Re \rho '\in (2/3,7/3)\) and \(\mathfrak {I}\rho '\in (t-5/6,t+5/6)\). Thus we have that
Which implies that
Note that, from Lemma 112, we have
Since \(m_\zeta (\rho )\geq 0\) for all \(\rho '\in \mathcal{Z}_t\), the inequality from Equation (9) tells us that by subtracting the sum over all \(\rho '\in \mathcal{Z}_t\setminus \{ \rho \} \) from both sides we have
But of course we have that \(\Re (1+\delta +it-\rho )=1+\delta -\sigma \). So subtracting this term from both sides and recalling the implied constant we have
We have that \(\sigma \leq 1\) since \(\zeta \) is zero free on the right half plane \(\sigma {\gt}1\). Thus \(0{\lt}1+\delta -\sigma \). Noting this in combination with the fact that \(1\leq m_\zeta (\rho )\) completes the proof.
For all \(\delta \in (0,1)\) we have
From Theorem 16 we know that
Changing variables \(s\mapsto 1+\delta \) and applying the triangle inequality we have that
We have that
for all \(\theta \in \mathbb {R}\).
We know that \(\cos (2\theta )=2\cos ^2\theta -1\), thus
Noting that \(0\leq 1+\cos \theta \) completes the proof.
There exists a constant \(0 {\lt} E{\lt}1\) such that for all \(\rho =\sigma +it\) with \(\zeta (\rho )=0\) and \(|t|\geq 3\), one has
From Theorem 18 when \(\Re s{\gt}1\) we have
Thus,
Now applying Euler’s identity
By Lemma 116 we know that the series on the right hand side is bounded below by \(0\), and by Lemmas 113, 114, and 115 we have an upper bound on the left hand side. So,
where \(A\), \(B\), and \(C\) are the implied constants coming from Lemmas 115, 114, and 113 respectively. By choosing \(D\geq 3A/\log 3+4B+C\) we have
by some manipulation. Now if we choose \(\delta =(2D\log |t|)^{-1}\) then we have
So with some manipulation we have that
This is exactly the desired result with the constant \(E=(14D)^{-1}\)
Let \(\delta _t=E/\log |t|\) where \(E\) is the constant coming from Theorem ??.
For all \(t\in \mathbb {R}\) with \(|t|\geq 3\) we have that
Note that \(\delta _t=E/\log |t|\) where \(E\) is the implied constant from Lemma 34. But we know that \(E=(14D)^{-1}\) where \(D\geq 3A/\log 3+4B+C\) where \(A\), \(B\), and \(C\) are the constants coming from Lemmas 115, 114, and 113 respectively. Thus,
But note that \(A\geq 0\) and \(B\geq 0\) by Lemmas 115 and 114 respectively. However, we have that
by Theorem 33 with Lemmas 112 and 113. So, by a very lazy estimate we have \(C\geq 2\) and \(E\leq 1/28\). Thus,
For all \(t\in \mathbb {R}\) with \(|t|\geq 3\) and \(z=\sigma +it\) where \(1-\delta _t/3\leq \sigma \leq 3/2\), we have that
By Lemma 117 we have that
We apply Theorem 33 where \(r'=2/3\), \(r=3/4\), \(R'=5/6\), and \(R=8/9\). Thus for all \(z\in \overline{\mathbb {D}_{5/6}}\setminus \mathcal{K}_f(5/6)\) we have that
where \(f(z)=\zeta (z+3/2+it)\) for \(t\in \mathbb {R}\) with \(|t|\geq 3\). Now if we let \(z=\sigma -3/2\), then \(z\in (-43/84,0)\subseteq \overline{\mathbb {D}_{5/6}}\). Additionally, \(f(z)=\zeta (\sigma +it)\), where \(\sigma +it\) lies in the zero free region given by Lemma 34 since \(\sigma \geq 1-\delta _t/3\geq 1-\delta _t\). Thus, \(z\not\in \mathcal{K}_f(5/6)\). So,
But now note that if \(\rho \in \mathcal{K}_f(5/6)\), then \(\zeta (\rho +3/2+it)=0\) and \(|\rho |\leq 5/6\). Additionally, note that \(m_f(\rho )=m_\zeta (\rho +3/2+it)\). So changing variables using these facts gives us that
Let \(t\in \mathbb {R}\) with \(|t|\geq 4\) and \(z=\sigma +it\) where \(1-\delta _t/3\leq \sigma \leq 3/2\). Additionally, let \(\rho \in \mathcal{Z}_t\). Then we have that
Let \(\rho =\sigma '+it'\) and note that since \(\rho \in \mathcal{Z}_t\), we have \(t'\in (t-5/6,t+5/6)\). Thus, if \(t{\gt}1\) we have
And otherwise if \(t{\lt}-1\) we have
So by taking reciprocals and multiplying through by a constant we have that \(\delta _t\leq 2\delta _{t'}\). Now note that since \(\rho \in \mathcal{Z}_t\) we know that \(\sigma '\leq 1-\delta _{t'}\) by Theorem 34 (here we use the fact that \(|t|\geq 4\) to give us that \(|t'|\geq 3\)). Thus,
There exists a constant \(F\in (0,1/2)\) such that for all \(t\in \mathbb {R}\) with \(|t|\geq 4\) one has
where the implied constant is uniform in \(\sigma \).
Take \(F=E/3\) where \(E\) comes from Theorem 34. Then we have that \(\sigma \geq 1-\delta _t/3\). So, we apply Lemma 118, which gives us that
Using the reverse triangle inequality and rearranging, we have that
where \(C\) is the implied constant in Lemma 118. Now applying Lemma 119 we have that
Now let \(f(z)=\zeta (z+3/2+it)/\zeta (3/2+it)\) with \(\rho =\rho '+3/2+it\). Then if \(\rho \in \mathcal{Z}_t\) we have that
with the same multiplicity of zero, that is \(m_\zeta (\rho )=m_f(\rho ')\). And also if \(\rho \in \mathcal{Z}_t\) then
Thus we change variables to have that
Now note that \(f(0)=1\) and for \(|z|\leq 8/9\) we have
by Theorems 31 and 32. Thus by Theorem 28 we have that
where \(D\) is taken to be sufficiently large. Recall, by definition that, \(\delta _t=E/\log |t|\) with \(E\) coming from Theorem 34. By using this fact and the above, we have that
where the implied constant is taken to be bigger than \(\max (6D/E,C)\). We know that the RHS is bounded above by \(\ll \log ^2|t|\); so the result follows.
