Riemann hypothesis
This work is dedicated to the promotion of the results Hadamard, Landau E.,
Walvis A., Estarmann T and Paul R. Chernoff for pseudo zeta functions. The
properties of zeta functions are studied, these properties can lead to new
regularities of zeta functions.Comment: 10 pages. arXiv admin note: substantial text overlap with

Predictive hypothesis identification
While statistics focusses on hypothesis testing and on estimating (properties
of) the true sampling distribution, in machine learning the performance of
learning algorithms on future data is the primary issue. In this paper we bridge
the gap with a general principle (PHI) that identifies hypotheses with best
predictive performance. This includes predictive point and interval estimation,
simple and composite hypothesis testing, (mixture) model selection, and
others as special cases. For concrete instantiations we will recover well-known
methods, variations thereof, and new ones. PHI nicely justifies, reconciles,
and blends (a reparametrization invariant variation of) MAP, ML, MDL, and
moment estimation. One particular feature of PHI is that it can genuinely
deal with nested hypotheses

Strange Pulsar Hypothesis
It appears that there is a genuine shortage of radio pulsars with surface
magnetic fields significantly smaller than Gauss. We propose that
the pulsars with very low magnetic fields are actually strange stars locked in
a state of minimum free energy and therefore at a limiting value of the
magnetic field which can not be lowered by the system spontaneously.Comment: 4 pages, 1 figure, uses LaTeX2e(mn2e.cls) and astrobib(mnras.bst),
