Lindelöf hypothesis and zero density estimates
Vishal Gupta

Abstract
The Lindelöf hypothesis is known to be weaker than the Riemann hypothesis and one way to assess the difference in their strength is to consider what can be said about the zeroes of the zeta function under the assumption of the Lindelöf hypothesis. Viewing this question in the context of zero density estimates, we prove that $N(\sigma,T) \leq T^{\frac{4(5-6\sigma)}{3(3-2\sigma)} + o(1)}$. This improves the currently known estimate conditional on the Lindelöf hypothesis, $N(\sigma,T) \leq T^{2(1-\sigma)+o(1)}$ based on the mean value theorem, for $\sigma$ near $3/4$.
