Abstract

Let E(s, Q) be the Epstein zeta function attached to a positive definite quadratic form of discriminant D < 0, such that h(D) ≥ 2, where h(D) is the class number of the imaginary quadratic field ${\mathbb{Q}} (\sqrt D)$. We denote by ${N_E}({\sigma _1},{\sigma _2},T)$ the number of zeros of $[E(s,Q)$ in the rectangle ${\sigma _1} < {\mathop{\rm Re}\nolimits} (s) \le {\sigma _2}$ and $T \le {\mathop{\rm Im}\nolimits} (s) \le 2T$, where $1/2 < {\sigma _1} < {\sigma _2} < 1$ are fixed real numbers. In this paper, we improve the asymptotic formula of Gonek and Lee for ${N_E}({\sigma _1},{\sigma _2},T)$, obtaining a saving of a power of log T in the error term.
