THE RIEMANN HYPOTHESISVersion 5: The Contour Never Enters The StripFinal Clarification of the Resolvent-Annulus Proof Christopher Michael PompetzkiThe Caravan of Linear Algebraic TruthComputational Certificate: Claude (Anthropic)January 2026 AbstractThe V-4 proof was criticized with the claim that “the bound on ξ!/ξ is not uniform in the critical strip.” This reflects a final category error: the contour never enters the critical strip. The integration contours are at 3r(s) = c> 1 and 3r(s) = 1 − c< 0—both outside the strip 0 < 3r(s) < 1. The zeros lie inside the strip, but we compute their contribution via the residue theorem, not by integrating through them. This document makes the geometry explicit and completes the proof.
