The Distribution of Zeros of Quasi-Polynomials

PROFESSOR Yitang Zhang, a number theorist at the University of California, Santa Barbara, USA, has posted a paper on arXiv [1] that hints at the possibility that he may have solved the Landau-Siegel zeros conjecture. He has claimed that he has disproved a weaker version of the Landau-Siegel zeroes conjecture, an important problem related to the hypothesis. The conjecture is that there are solutions to the zeta function that do not assume the form prescribed by the Riemann hypothesis. Inspired by his work, in this Perspective, we would like to discuss about the distribution of zeros of quasi-polynomials for linear time-invariant (LTI) systems with time delays.
