Ask HN: My professor thinks he solved Riemann Hypothesis. how to validate it?

Dr. Kumar has used the properties of primes and analytic continuation and had a new way of handling slowly converging series and was able to use (at the crucial point) concepts borrowed from Donald Knuth regarding random numbers and random sequences. Knuth had said that for any sequence to be truly random it has to be non-cyclic. The proof required to show that a sequence of +1’s and -1’s , obtained from the prime factorization of the infinite sequence of integers, had to be shown to be random and to asymptotically behave like the tosses of a coin.
