Abstract
We prove several asymptotic continued fraction expansions of , , , , and related functions, where is the prime counting function, is the Riemann prime counting function, and is Riemann's approximation to the prime counting function. We also determine asymptotic continued fraction expansions of the function for all with , and of the functions and for all real numbers . We also determine the first few terms of an asymptotic continued fraction expansion of the function for . As a corollary of these results, we determine the best rational approximations of the "linearized" verions of these various functions.
