Abstract: We seek to understand how the technical definition of Lehmer pair can be related to more analytic properties of the Riemann zeta function, particularly the location of the zeros of zetaprime(s). Because we are interested in the connection between Lehmer pairs and the de Bruijn-Newman constant Lambda, we assume the Riemann Hypothesis throughout. We define strong Lehmer pairs via an inequality on the derivative of the pre-Schwarzian of Riemann's function Xi(t), evaluated at consecutive zeros. Theorem 1 shows that strong Lehmer pairs are Lehmer pairs. Theorem 2 describes the derivative of the pre-Schwarzian in terms of zetaprime(ho). Theorem 3 expresses the criteria for strong Lehmer pairs in terms of nearby zeros hoprime of zetaprime(s). We examine 114661 pairs of zeros of zeta(s) around height t=10^6, finding 855 strong Lehmer pairs. These are compared to the corresponding zeros of zetaprime(s) in the same range.
