Q: Optimality of the Riemann Hypothesis

Finn LimThe Riemann hypothesis is equivalent to the assertion that the prime counting function $\pi(x) := \sum_{p \le x} 1$ deviates from the logarithmic integral $Li(x) = \int_2^x \frac{dx}{\log x}$ in the order $O(\sqrt{x} \log x)$. Since $\log x = O(x^\alpha)$ for any $\alpha>0$, the Riemann hypothesi...

Q: Does Ingenuity rotate via differential rotor speeds or differential angles of attack?

uhohI've seen a few photos taken by Ingenuity of its own shadow, and the angle between the two sets of rotors is different in each. That suggests to me that spinning the counter-propagating rotors at very slightly different speeds could make the aircraft turn via some conservation of angular momentum...
