Significant results include a simpler derivation of the fundamental equation developed previously, and its generalization from the critical line to the complex plane. A simpler statement of the relationship that exists between the real and imaginary components of $\\zeta(s)$ and $\\zeta^{\\prime}(s)$ on opposing sides of the critical line is developed, reducing to a simpler statement of the same result on the critical line. An analytic expression is obtained for the sum of the arguments of $\\zeta(s)$ on opposite sides of the critical line, reducing to the analytic expression for $arg(\\zeta(1/2+i\\rho))$ first obtained in the previous work. Relationships are obtained between various combinations of $|\\zeta(s)|$ and $|\\zeta^{\\prime}(s)|$, particularly on the critical line, and it is demonstrated that $arg(\\zeta(1/2+i\\rho))$ and $arg(\\zeta^{\\prime}(1/2+i\\rho))$ uniquely define $|\\zeta(1/2+i\\rho)|$. A comment is made about the utility of such results as they might apply to putative proofs of Riemann's Hypothesis (RH).", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2016-09-10T03:31:50.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11M06", "11M26", "11M99", "26A09", "30B40", "30E20", "30C15", "33C47", "33B99", "33F99" ], "keywords": [ "riemanns functional equation", "critical line", "exploration", "complex plane", "analytic expression" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 17, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
