Jensen polynomials are not a plausible route to proving the Riemann hypothesis (Q2105751)

A classical result of \textit{J. L. W. V. Jensen} states that the Riemann Hypothesis (RH) is true if and only if all of the associated Jensen polynomials have only real zeros [Acta Math. 36, 181--195 (1912; JFM 43.0158.01)]. In the paper under review, the author investigates another version of the Jensen polynomials, called the even Jensen polynomials. An interesting connection was found with the Hermite polynomials. Indeed, that perspective explains why the new connection to Hermite polynomials is interesting, but it also suggests why there is no connection to the Riemann Hypothesis nor to the random matrix statistics of zeros of the zeta function. Furthermore, these considerations suggest that the Jensen polynomials, as well as a large class of related polynomials, are not a useful tool for approaching the Riemann Hypothesis (RH).
