Nonnegative trigonometric polynomials and a zero-free region for the Riemann zeta-function

We prove that the Riemann zeta-function $ζ(σ+ it)$ has no zeros in the region $σ\geq 1 - 1/(5.573412 \log|t|)$ for $|t|\geq 2$. This represents the largest known zero-free region within the critical strip for $3.06\cdot10^{10} < |t|<\exp(10151.5)$. Our improvements result from determining some favorable trigonometric polynomials having particular properties, and from analyzing the error term in the method of Kadiri. We also improve an upper bound in a question of Landau regarding nonnegative trigonometric polynomials.
