Two identities extracted from the literature are coupled to obtain an integral equation for Riemann’s ξs function and thus ζs indirectly. The equation has a number of simple properties from which useful derivations flow, the most notable of which relates ζs anywhere in the critical strip to its values on a line anywhere else in the complex plane. From this, both an analytic expression for ζσ+it, everywhere inside the asymptotic t⟶∞ critical strip, as well as an approximate solution can be obtained, within the confines of which the Riemann Hypothesis is shown to be true. The approximate solution predicts a simple, but strong correlation between the real and imaginary components of ζσ+it for different values of σ and equal values of t; this is illustrated in a number of figures.
