    Abstract

    The Nyman-Beurling Criterion paraphrases the Riemann Hypothesis as a closure problem in a Hilbert space. The simplest version of this, due to Baez-Duarte, states that RH is equivalent to one particular element in a Hilbert space being in the closure of a span of countably many other elements. We investigate this numerically and analytically. In particular, we establish new formulas for the inner products of the vectors involved.
