In this article, we introduce a general approach for deriving zero-free half-planes for the Riemann zeta function $\zeta$ by identifying topological vector spaces of analytic functions with specific properties. This approach is applied to weighted $\ell^2$ spaces and classical Hardy spaces $ H^p $ ($ 0<p\leq2 $). As a consequence precise conditions are obtained for the existence of zero-free half planes for the $\zeta$-function.
