Triple correlation of the Riemann zeros
We use the conjecture of Conrey, Farmer and Zirnbauer for averages of ratios
of the Riemann zeta function to calculate all the lower order terms of the
triple correlation function of the Riemann zeros. A previous approach was
suggested in 1996 by Bogomolny and Keating taking inspiration from
semi-classical methods. At that point they did not write out the answer
explicitly, so we do that here, illustrating that by our method all the lower
order terms down to the constant can be calculated rigourously if one assumes
the ratios conjecture of Conrey, Farmer and Zirnbauer. Bogomolny and Keating
returned to their previous results simultaneously with this current work, and
have written out the full expression. The result presented in this paper agrees
precisely with their formula, as well as with our numerical computations, which
we include here.
We also include an alternate proof of the triple correlation of eigenvalues
from random U(N) matrices which follows a nearly identical method to that for
the Riemann zeros, but is based on the theorem for averages of ratios of
characteristic polynomials
