New bounds for $\psi(x)$

Number Theory 2019-03-06 v1

Abstract

In this article we provide new explicit Chebyshev's bounds for the prime counting function ψ(x)\psi(x). The proof relies on two new arguments: smoothing the prime counting function which allows to generalize the previous approaches, and a new explicit zero density estimate for the zeros of the Riemann zeta function.
