Abstract
This chapter contains four expository papers on the Riemann hypothesis. These are our “expert witnesses”, and they provide the perspective of specialists in the fields of number theory and complex analysis. The first two papers were commissioned by the Clay Mathematics Institute to serve as official prize descriptions. They give a thorough description of the problem, the surrounding theory, and probable avenues of attack. In the third paper, Conrey gives an account of recent approaches to the Riemann hypothesis, highlighting the connection to random matrix theory. The last paper outlines reasons why mathematicians should remain skeptical of the hypothesis, and possible sources of disproof.
