Bound · version 2

An explicit zero-free region near Re(s) = 1

Statement

ζ(σ + it) ≠ 0 whenever t ≥ 3 and σ > 1 − 1/(4.896 log t), with natural logarithm.

Assumptions

  • Real t ≥ 3.
  • Strict inequality σ > 1 − 1/(4.896 log t); classical ζ.

Scope

A height-dependent region near the right edge of the critical strip, not a fixed half-plane down to Re(s) = 1/2.

This eliminates a specified region of possible zeros. It is not a proof of RH, nor a claim to be the strongest available region at every height.

Scope: The March 2026 preprint improves a logarithmic exclusion region near the edge of the strip.

Limit: The boundary approaches 1 as t increases. RH needs the much stronger exclusion of every zero with Re ρ > 1/2.

Excluding a region and bounding counts in a larger region are different conclusions; neither is an additive progress score.
