Theory of Hardy's Z-Function

Hardy's Z-function, related to the Riemann zeta-function I (s), was originally utilised by G. H. Hardy to show that I (s) has infinitely many zeros of the form 1/2+it. It is now amongst the most important functions of analytic number theory, and the Riemann hypothesis, that all complex zeros lie on the line 1/2+it, is perhaps one of the best known and most important open problems in mathematics.
