Has the Riemann Hypothesis has been proved here ?

I just came across this paper https://figshare.com/articles/preprint/Primorial_numbers_and_the_Riemann_Hypothesis/13838111, claiming to prove the Riemann Hypothesis. I'm not an expert on this subject, but the proof seems to be valid. I have also attached the file below.

Criticism by Luboš Motl that you may find interesting. He's highly suspicious that there may be flaws in the proof, although he certainly praises Kubalalika for their creativity:

If I have understood correctly, for some auxiliary hypothesis to work, the RH itself must be true, so it's kind of a begging-the-question type of objection.

We will have to wait and see some serious peer review by mathematicians.

I just want to add one thing. Sometimes imperfect proofs have the seeds of a really watertight proof in them, once necessary auxiliary investigations are made.

As to the RH, there is a general feeling of pessimism, though:

& why is that? I mean, information is power. Would you share power with someone who may be irrational?

Are you saying that if RH was proven the math community would keep it secret?

Did they change the fonts on this site so that the text is so light that I can no longer read it? Probably the same people who are covering up the proof of RH.

I shudder to think what a nutter would do with a powerful theorem. ;) 

What even makes you think your rights are protected just because you hear it? Smart people are also careful people.

Just hand out trust to strangers and we can all hold hands and sing combiya and go to a great afterlife as we were promised.

Emma Watson is from there

I hope she is the exception. We won't see, she's gone rogue. Like me. Total media blackout

 

Is she any closer to proving RH? Maybe rogue is the way to go...

You know... Just to keep on topic by the skin of our teeth.

It seems Motl's comments are on an earlier (2019) claimed proof of Kabalaika. The recent claimed proof seems to have a different approach to the one described by Motl. By the way, there is a revised version. https://doi.org/10.6084/m9.figshare.13838111

Indeed. The first version was a bit complicated for e to read, but i can certainly pass a judgement on the latest and much more elementary version https://doi.org/10.6084/m9.figshare.13838111. Will give it quick a read.

Thanks a lot! That's certainly something to follow up on.

Sure. I e-mailed Kubalalika yesterday. Apparently, he has submitted his final draft (attached below) to some number theory journal for peer-review. Whilst we wait for the experts to pass their verdict, the proof looks quite okay to me...but i wouldn't bet my last dollar on it.

So today I came across this https://www.facebook.com/groups/100386783434193/permalink/2032827933523392/?app=fbl claimed 1-page proof of the Riemann hypothesis on Facebook. After inboxing him, the OP confided that he had submitted his paper for formal peer-review to some journal. 

The argument has too much complex analysis for me to give a serious verdict, but I guess some of you guys do have the necessary expertise to do so.
