We establish asymptotic formulas for sums of reciprocals of primes in arithmetic progressions, generalizing recent results on multiple Mertens evaluations by Tenenbaum, Qi, and Hu. Specifically, for any fixed constant $K>0$, we derive…

We study sums of a random multiplicative function; this is an example, of number-theoretic interest, of sums of products of independent random variables (chaoses). Using martingale methods, we establish a normal approximation for the sum…

The paper considers estimates for some sums and products of functions of prime numbers. Several assertions on this topic have been proven. We also study extremal estimates for strongly additive and strongly multiplicative arithmetic…

By means of a variational approach we find new series representations both for well known mathematical constants, such as $\pi$ and the Catalan constant, and for mathematical functions, such as the Riemann zeta function. The series that we…

We describe a novel optimization method for finite sums (such as empirical risk minimization problems) building on the recently introduced SAGA method. Our method achieves an accelerated convergence rate on strongly convex smooth problems.…

We unify in a large class of additive functions the results obtained in the first part of this work. The proof rests on series involving the Riemann zeta function and certain sums of primes which may have their own interest.

In this paper we investigate the sums of reciprocals to an arithmetic progression taken modulo one, that is sums of $\{n\alpha-\gamma\}^{-1}$, where $\alpha$ and $\gamma$ are real parameters and $\{\,\cdot\,\}$ is the fractional part of a…

In this article, we obtain two interesting general inequalities concerning Riemman sums of convex functions, which in particular, sharpen Alzer's inequality and give a suitable converse for it.

We prove that any non-zero complex values $z_1,\ldots,z_n$ can be approximated by the following integral shifts of the Riemann zeta-function $\zeta(s+id_1\tau),\ldots,\zeta(s+id_n\tau)$ for infinitely many $\tau$, provided…

The series for the zeta function does not converge on the critical line but the function \[G(t)=\sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{1}{n^{\frac12+it}}\frac{t}{2\pi n^2+t}\] satisfies $Z(t)=2\Re\{e^{i\vartheta(t)}G(t)\}+O(t^{-\frac56+\varepsilon})$. So…

We consider the question of approximating any real number $\alpha$ by sums of $n$ rational numbers $\frac{a_1}{q_1} + \frac{a_2}{q_2} + ... + \frac{a_n}{q_n}$ with denominators $1 \leq q_1, q_2, ..., q_n \leq N$. This leads to an inquiry on…

Of what use are the zeros of the Riemann zeta function? We can use sums involving zeta zeros to count the primes up to $x$. Perron's formula leads to sums over zeta zeros that can count the squarefree integers up to $x$, or tally Euler's…
