Here's a paper by a Slovenian electrical engineer, where he calculates succesively higher values of |Z(t)|. He also notices that these come near octave...
This is a rather far-fetched connection, since it involves JI scales as the number of notes to the octave goes to infinity. It's about Farey sequences, but you...

The phenomenon of the peak values of zeta(1/2+it) being dominated by near integers n = ln(2)t/(2 pi) turns out to be even more apparent when you look at...
... far. ... Yes. Actually, the article is from the 1961 Illinois Journal of Mathematics. "Symmetry Types of Periodic Sequences" by E. N. Gilbert and John...
... Here's an explanation of the relationship between looking at zeta peaks and the derivative. We have zeta(1/2+it) = exp(i theta(t))Z(t) where Z is the Z...
... I've uploaded a plot of |zeta| in green and |zeta'|/theta in red to the zeta derivatives folder, under zeta, in Photos. It's quite illuminating....

I always considered enharmonic-spelling to be a burden with musical notation software. Is there any program that actually understands that a certain note in a...
hi Ozan, ... yes ... Tonalsoft's Musica does. it clearly differentiates all "enharmonically-equivalent" sets of notes. (release 1.0 now planned for summer...
