The extended Riemann hypothesis for abelian extension of the rationals is equivalent to the generalized Riemann hypothesis. The Riemann hypothesis can also be extended to the L-functions of Hecke characters of number fields. The grand Riemann hypothesis extends it to all automorphic zeta functions, such as Mellin transforms of Hecke eigenforms.
The extended Riemann hypothesis asserts that for every number field K and every complex number s with ζ K (s) = 0: if the real part of s is between 0 and 1, then it is in fact 1/2. The ordinary Riemann hypothesis follows from the extended one if one takes the number field to be Q, with ring of integers Z.
His 1859 paper on the prime-counting function, containing the original statement of the Riemann hypothesis, is regarded as a foundational paper of analytic number theory. Through his pioneering contributions to differential geometry , Riemann laid the foundations of the mathematics of general relativity . [ 3 ]
Jérôme Franel (1859–1939) was a Swiss mathematician who specialised in analytic number theory.He is mainly known through a 1924 paper, [1] in which he establishes the equivalence of the Riemann hypothesis to a statement on the size of the discrepancy in the Farey sequences, and which is directly followed (in the same journal) by a development on the same subject by Edmund Landau.
However, the link between the Riemann hypothesis and the prime number theorem had been known before in Continental Europe, and Littlewood wrote later in his book, A Mathematician's Miscellany that his rediscovery of the result did not shed a positive light on the isolated nature of British mathematics at the time.

It asks for more work on the distribution of primes and generalizations of Riemann hypothesis to other rings where prime ideals take the place of primes. Absolute value of the ζ-function. Hilbert's eighth problem includes the Riemann hypothesis, which states that this function can only have non-trivial zeroes along the line x = 1/2 [2].
The Riemann zeta function is an example of an L-function, and some important conjectures involving L-functions are the Riemann hypothesis and its generalizations. The theory of L -functions has become a very substantial, and still largely conjectural , part of contemporary analytic number theory .
