Nicolas' criterion for the Riemann Hypothesis (RH) is an inequality based on primorials and the Euler totient function. The aim of this paper is to reformulate Nicolas' criterion and prove the equivalent statement. I will show that the…

A work by Nicolas has shown that if it can be proven that a certain inequality holds for all $n$, the Riemann hypothesis is true. This inequality is associated with the Mertens theorem, and hence the Euler totient at $\prod_{k=1}^n p_k$,…

The achievement of this paper is a confutation of the inequality addressed by the Nicolas criterion for the Riemann Hypothesis, carried out after establishing properties of two related sequences. One of them is the product…

New unconditional estimates of the divisor and totient functions are contributed to the literature. These results are consistent with the Riemann hypothesis and seem to solve the Nicolas inequality for all sufficiently large integers.

Nicolas inequality we deal can be written as \begin{equation}\label{Nicineq} e^\gamma \log\log N_x < \dfrac{N_x}{\varphi(N_x)}\,, \end{equation} where $x\ge 2$, $N_x$ denotes the product of the primes less or equal than $x$, $\gamma$ is the…

We study generalizations of some results of Jean-Louis Nicolas regarding the relation between small values of Euler's function $\varphi(n)$ and the Riemann Hypothesis. Among other things, we prove that for $1\leq q\leq 10$ and for $q=12,…

Let $\mathcal{P}$ be the set of all primes and $\psi(n)=n\prod_{n\in \mathcal{P},p|n}(1+1/p)$ be the Dedekind psi function. We show that the Riemann hypothesis is satisfied if and only if $f(n)=\psi(n)/n-e^{\gamma} \log \log n <0$ for all…

We substantially apply the Li criterion for the Riemann hypothesis to hold. Based upon a series representation for the sequence \{\lambda_k\}, which are certain logarithmic derivatives of the Riemann xi function evaluated at unity, we…

The Robin criterion states that the Riemann hypothesis is equivalent to the inequality $\sigma(n) < e^\gamma n \log \log n$ for all $n>5040$, where $\sigma(n)$ is the sum of divisors of $n$, and $\gamma$ is the Euler--Mascheroni constant.…

Let $\psi$ denote the Dedekind totient function defined by $ \psi(n)=\sum_{d|n}d\mu^2\l({n}/{d}\r) $ with $\mu$ being the M\"{o}bius function. We shall consider the $k$-th Riesz mean of the arithmetical function $n/\psi(n)$ for any…

We furnish an explicit bound for the prime number theorem in short intervals on the assumption of the Riemann hypothesis.

A crucial role in the Nyman-Beurling-B\'aez-Duarte approach to the Riemann Hypothesis is played by the distance \[ d_N^2:=\inf_{A_N}\frac{1}{2\pi}\int_{-\infty}^\infty\left|1-\zeta…

For each $f:[0,\infty)\to\Com$ formally consider its co-Poisson or M\"{u}ntz transform $g(x)=\sum_{n\geq 1}f(nx)-\frac{1}{x}\int_0^\infty f(t)dt$. For certain $f$'s with both $f, g \in L_2(0,\infty)$ it is true that the Riemann hypothesis…

We prove that neither a prime nor {an l-almost prime} number theorem hold in the class of regular Toeplitz subshifts. But, {when a quantitative strengthening of the regularity with respect to the periodic structure involving Euler's totient…

The aim of this article is to investigate how various Riemann Hypotheses would follow only from properties of the prime numbers. To this end, we consider two classes of $L$-functions, namely, non-principal Dirichlet and those based on cusp…

Let $\Psi(n):=n\prod_{p | n}(1+\frac{1}{p})$ denote the Dedekind $\Psi$ function. Define, for $n\ge 3,$ the ratio $R(n):=\frac{\Psi(n)}{n\log\log n}.$ We prove unconditionally that $R(n)< e^\gamma$ for $n\ge 31.$ Let $N_n=2...p_n$ be the…

We prove the analog of Cram\'er's short intervals theorem for primes in arithmetic progressions and prime ideals, under the relevant Riemann Hypothesis. Both results are uniform in the data of the underlying structure. Our approach is based…

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…

In these lectures we first review the important properties of the Riemann $\zeta$-function that are necessary to understand the nature and importance of the Riemann hypothesis (RH). In particular this first part describes the analytic…

In this paper, we make use of Robin and Lagarias' criteria to prove Riemann hypothesis. The goal is, using Lagarias criterion for $n\geq 1$ since Lagarias criterion states that Riemann hypothesis holds if and only if the inequality…
