Jakobson–Naud's half-plane conjecture for zeros of the Selberg zeta function

About 4 years old · traced to

Let ZX(s)Z_X(s) be the Selberg zeta function of the symmetric infinite-area hyperbolic surface under consideration, and let b4b4 denote the exponent of convergence of its limit set.

Jakobson–Naud's conjecture. There are only finitely many zeros in the half-plane

ℜ(s)>δ2\Re(s)>\frac{\delta}{2}

and this is the largest half-plane with this property: for every ε>0\varepsilon>0, there are infinitely many zeros in the half-plane

ℜ(s)>δ2−ε.\Re(s)>\frac{\delta}{2}-\varepsilon.

The conjecture identifies the boundary ℜ(s)=δ/2\Re(s)=\delta/2 as the sharp finiteness threshold for zeros of the Selberg zeta function. It is attributed to Jakobson and Naud and is presented here as an open conjecture.
