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.…

The best polynomial approximation and Chebyshev approximation are both important in numerical analysis. In tradition, the best approximation is regarded as more better than the Chebyshev approximation, because it is usually considered in…

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…

We improve the unconditional explicit bounds for the error term in the prime counting function $\psi(x)$. In particular, we prove that, for all $x>2$, we have \[ \left| \psi(x)-x \right| < 9.22106 \, x \, (\log x)^{3/2}…

Recently, we have established the generalized Li's criterion equivalent to the Riemann hypothesis, viz. demonstrated that the sums over all non-trivial Riemann function zeroes k_n,b=Sum_rho(1-(1-((rho+b)/(rho-b-1))**n) for any real b not…

We study the conjecture that $\sum_{n\leq x} \chi(n)=o(x)$ for any primitive Dirichlet character $\chi \pmod q$ with $x\geq q^\epsilon$, which is known to be true if the Riemann Hypothesis holds for $L(s,\chi)$. We show that it holds under…

In this paper we use refined approximations for Chebyshev's $\vartheta$-function to establish new explicit estimates for the prime counting function $\pi(x)$, which improve the current best estimates for large values of $x$. As an…

In this paper, we derive new probability bounds for Chebyshev's inequality if the supremum of the probability density function is known. This result holds for one-dimensional or multivariate continuous probability distributions with finite…

The purpose of the present paper is to reveal the relation between the behavior of the logarithm of the Riemann zeta-function $\log{\zeta(s)}$ and the distribution of zeros of the Riemann zeta-function. We already know some examples for the…

Let $\sigma,t\in{\mathbb{R}}$, $s=\sigma+\mathrm{{i}}t$, $\Gamma (s)$ be the Gamma function, $\zeta(s)$ be the Riemann zeta function and $\xi(s):=s(s-1)\pi ^{-s/2}\Gamma(s/2)\zeta(s)$ be the complete Riemann zeta function. We show that…

We note an interesting and under-expressed fact from Chebyshev's initial bounding for the prime counting function, $\pi(x) := \# \{p \leq x : p \text{ prime}\},$ based upon a selection of fixed coefficients $d\in D$ to show $\psi(x) \asymp…

Denote by $\pi(x;q,a)$ the number of primes $p\leqslant x$ with $p\equiv a\bmod q.$ We prove new upper bounds for $\pi(x;q,a)$ when $q$ is a large prime very close to $\sqrt{x}$, improving upon the classical work of Iwaniec (1982). The…

In this work, a generalization of Chebyshev functional is presented. New inequalities of Gruss type via Pompeiu's mean value theorem are established. Improvements of some old inequalities are proved. A generalization of pre-Gruss inequality…

Let pi(x) denote the number of primes smaller or equal to x. We compare sqrt{pi}(x) with sqrt{R}(x) and sqrt{li}(x), where R(x) and li(x) are the Riemann function and the logarithmic integral, respectively. We show a regularity in 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,…

We study the series s(n,x) which is the sum for k from 1 to n of the square of the sine of the product x Gamma(k)/k, where x is a variable. By Wilson's theorem we show that the integer part of s(n,x) for x = Pi/2 is the number of primes…

We use the Jacobi theta function to give a representation of the modulus of the Riemann $\xi$ function. Based on this modulus representation, we show that the Riemann hypothesis is equivalent to the validity of a family of polynomial…

In this paper, we establish new bounds for classical prime-counting functions. All of our bounds are explicit and assume the Riemann Hypothesis. First, we prove that $|\psi(x) - x|$ and $|\vartheta(x) - x|$ are bounded from above by…

In 1916, Riesz proved that the Riemann hypothesis is equivalent to the bound $\sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{\mu(n)}{n^2} \exp\left( - \frac{x}{n^2} \right) = O_{\epsilon} \left( x^{-\frac{3}{4} + \epsilon} \right)$, as $x \rightarrow\infty$, for…
