Abstract

The primary purpose of this article is to study the asymptotic and numerical estimates in detail for higher degree polynomials in π(x)\pi(x) having a general expression of the form, \begin{align*} P(\pi(x)) - \frac{e x}{\log x} Q(\pi(x/e)) + R(x) \end{align*} PP, QQ and RR are arbitrarily chosen polynomials and π(x)\pi(x) denotes the \textit{Prime Counting Function}. The proofs require specific order estimates involving π(x)\pi(x) and the \textit{Second Chebyshev Function} ψ(x)\psi(x), as well as the famous \textit{Prime Number Theorem} in addition to certain meromorphic properties of the \textit{Riemann Zeta Function} ζ(s)\zeta(s) and results regarding its non-trivial zeros. A few generalizations of these concepts have also been discussed in detail towards the later stages of the paper, along with citing some important applications.
