The Dirichlet eta function can be divided into $n$-th partial sum $\eta_{n}(s)$ and remainder term $R_{n}(s)$. We focus on the remainder term which can be approximated by the expression for $n$. And then, to increase reliability, we make…
Under the Riemann Hypothesis, we prove for any natural number $r$ there exist infinitely many large natural numbers $n$ such that $(\gamma_{n+r}-\gamma_n)/(2\pi /\log \gamma_n) > r + \Theta\sqrt{r}$ and $(\gamma_{n+r}-\gamma_n)/(2\pi /\log…
In a family of $S_{d+1}$-fields ($d=2,3,4$), we obtain the true upper and lower bound of the residues of Dedekind zeta functions except for a density zero set. For $S_5$-fields, we need to assume the strong Artin conjecture. We also show…
The divisor function $\sigma(n)$ denotes the sum of the divisors of the positive integer $n$. For a prime $p$ and $m \in \mathbb{N}$, the $p$-adic valuation of $m$ is the highest power of $p$ which divides $m$. Formulas for…
Let $S(\sigma,t)=\frac{1}{\pi}\arg\zeta(\sigma+it)$ be the argument of the Riemann zeta function at the point $\sigma+it$ of the critical strip. For $n\geq 1$ and $t>0$ we define $$ S_{n}(\sigma,t) = \int_0^t S_{n-1}(\sigma,\tau)\,d\tau\, +…
Assume that the Riemann hypothesis holds for Dedekind zeta functions. Under this assumption, we prove that a degree $d$ polynomial with random multiplicative $\pm1$ coefficients is irreducible in $\mathbb{Z}[x]$ with probability…
This paper investigates the relationship between the Riemann hypothesis and the statement $\forall n, ~g(n) \le e^{\sqrt{p_n}}$, where $g(n)$ is the maximum order of an element of $S_n$, the symmetric group on $n$ elements, and $p_n$ is the…
Let $\sigma(n)$ to be the sum of the positive divisors of $n$. A number is non-deficient if $\sigma(n) \geq 2n$. We establish new lower bounds for the number of distinct prime factors of an odd non-deficient number in terms of its second…
The function $S_n (t) = \pi \left( \frac{3}{2} - {frac} \left( \frac{\vartheta(t)}{\pi} \right) + \left( \lfloor \frac{t \ln \left( \frac{t}{2 \pi e}\right)}{2 \pi} + \frac{7}{8} \rfloor - n \right) \right)$ is conjectured to be equal to $S…
For n>1, let G(n)=\sigma(n)/(n log log n), where \sigma(n) is the sum of the divisors of n. We prove that the Riemann Hypothesis is true if and only if 4 is the only composite number N satisfying G(N) \ge \max(G(N/p),G(aN)), for all prime…
Let \sigma(n) be the sum of divisors of a positive integer n. Robin's theorem states that the Riemann hypothesis is equivalent to the inequality \sigma(n)<e^\gamma n\log\log n for all n>5040 (\gamma is Euler's constant). It is a natural…
Let $\{p_j(n)\}_{j=1}^{\omega(n)}$ denote the increasing sequence of distinct prime factors of an integer $n$. We provide details for the proof of a statement of Erd\H{o}s implying that, for any function $\xi(n)$ tending to infinity with…
Given a number field $K$ of degree $n_K$ and with absolute discriminant $d_K$, we obtain an explicit bound for the number $N_K(T)$ of non-trivial zeros (counted with multiplicity), with height at most $T$, of the Dedekind zeta function…
Let $P$ be the set of all prime numbers, ${q_1},{q_2}, \cdots ,{q_m} \in P$, $P_k$ be the k-th $(k = 1,2, \cdots m)$ element of $P$ in ascending order of size, ${\alpha _1},{\alpha _2}, \cdots ,{\alpha _m}$ be positive integers, and ${\beta…
By employing the assessment of the asymptotic size of various sums of G\'{a}l studied by La Bret\`eche and Tenenbaum, we provide an improvement on the recent result of A. Bondarenko, P. Darbar, M. V. Hagen, W. Heap, and K. Seip regarding…
Let $p(n)$ denote the partition function. DeSalvo and Pak proved that $\frac{p(n-1)}{p(n)}\left(1+\frac{1}{n}\right)> \frac{p(n)}{p(n+1)}$ for $n\geq 2$, as conjectured by Chen. Moreover, they conjectured that a sharper inequality…
For any $\sigma$ with $0\leq \sigma\leq 1$ and any $T>10$ sufficiently large, let $N_{\zeta}(\sigma,K,T)$ be the number of zeros $\rho=\beta+i\gamma$ of $\zeta_{K}(s)$ with $|\gamma|\leq T$ and $\beta\geq \sigma$ and the zero being counted…
Let $I(n) = \frac{\psi(\phi(n))}{\phi(\psi(n))}$ and $K(n) = \frac{\psi(\phi(n))}{\phi(\phi(n))}$, where $\phi(n)$ is Euler's function and $\psi(n)$ is Dedekind's arithmetic function. We obtain the maximal order of $I(n)$, as well as the…
Given a rational number $x$ and a bound $\varepsilon$, we exhibit $m,n$ such that $|x-12 s(m,n)|<\varepsilon$. Here $s(m,n)$ is the classical Dedekind sum and the parameters $m$ and $n$ are completely explicit in terms of $x$ and…
In 1963, Edward Spence published a proof of the following With $\phi$ being Euler totient function, if $n>1$ is an integer, and if \begin{equation*} 0<a_1<\cdots<a_{\phi(n)}<n, \end{equation*} are the positive integers less than $n$,…
