Abstract
We prove that the Riemann hypothesis is equivalent to the condition for all . Here, is the prime-counting function and is the logarithmic integral. This makes explicit a claim of Pintz (1991). Moreover, we prove an analogous result for the Chebyshev function and discuss the extent to which one can make related claims unconditionally.
