We prove an explicit version of Weiss' bound on the least norm of a prime ideal in the Chebotarev density theorem, which is itself a significant improvement on the work of Lagarias, Montgomery, and Odlyzko. In order to accomplish this, we…

We present in this work a heuristic expression for the density of prime numbers. Our expression leads to results which possesses approximately the same precision of the Riemann's function in the domain that goes from 2 to 1010 at least.…

Let $\psi_{\mathbb K}$ be the Chebyshev function of a number field $\mathbb K$. Let $\psi^{(1)}_{\mathbb K}(x):=\int_{0}^{x}\psi_{\mathbb K}(t)\,d t$ and $\psi^{(2)}_{\mathbb K}(x):=2\int_{0}^{x}\psi^{(1)}_{\mathbb K}(t)\,d t$. We prove…

This article studies the zeros of Dedekind zeta functions. In particular, we establish a smooth explicit formula for these zeros and we derive an effective version of the Deuring-Heilbronn phenomenon. In addition, we obtain an explicit…

We prove new bounds for how often Dirichlet polynomials can take large values. This gives improved estimates for a Dirichlet polynomial of length $N$ taking values of size close to $N^{3/4}$, which is the critical situation for several…

We derive explicit upper bounds for various functions counting primes in arithmetic progressions. By way of example, if $q$ and $a$ are integers with $\gcd(a,q)=1$ and $3 \leq q \leq 10^5$, and $\theta(x;q,a)$ denotes the sum of the…

When solving a number of problems in prime number theory, it is sufficient that $t(x;q)$ admits an estimate close to this one. The best known estimates for $t(x;q)$ previously belonged to G.~Montgomery, R.~Vaughn, and Z.~Kh.~Rakhmonov. In…

We prove some new log-free density theorems for zeros of Dirichlet L-functions (which accordingly are more sharp than earlier ones near to the boundary line of the critical strip). The results can be applied in several problems of prime…

Some new sufficient conditions for the weighted Chebyshev's inequality for real numbers to hold are provided.

We prove an explicit log-free zero density estimate and an explicit version of the zero-repulsion phenomenon of Deuring and Heilbronn for Hecke $L$-functions. In forthcoming work of the second author, these estimates will be used to…

In this paper, we establish a new estimate (including lower and upper bounds) for an important quantity involved in the convergence analysis of smoothed aggregation algebraic multigrid methods. The new upper bound improves the existing…

Chebyshev observed in a letter to Fuss that there tends to be more primes of the form $4n+3$ than of the form $4n+1$. The general phenomenon, which is referred to as Chebyshev's bias, is that primes tend to be biased in their distribution…

In this paper, we establish new explicit bounds for the Mertens function $M(x)$. In particular, we compare $M(x)$ against a short-sum over the non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta-function $\zeta(s)$, whose difference we can bound using…

In this paper we discuss a method to express the Prime counting function as a "sum" over Non-trivial zeros of Riemann Zeta function, using techniques from Analytic Number Theory, also we apply our results to the sum over primes of any…

We introduce the weighted prime sum $S(x) = \sum_{p \le x} \sqrt{(\log p)/p}$ and the derived quantity $E(x) = S(x)^2 - M(x)$, where $M(x) = \sum_{p \le x} (\log p)/p$. We prove that the order-of-magnitude estimate $S(x) \asymp \sqrt{x /…

The primary purpose of this article is to study the asymptotic and numerical estimates in detail for higher degree polynomials in $\pi(x)$ having a general expression of the form, \begin{align*} P(\pi(x)) - \frac{e x}{\log x} Q(\pi(x/e)) +…

It is well known that $li(x)>\pi(x)$ (i) up to the (very large) Skewes' number $x_1 \sim 1.40 \times 10^{316}$ \cite{Bays00}. But, according to a Littlewood's theorem, there exist infinitely many $x$ that violate the inequality, due to the…

Fix $\delta\in(0,1]$, $\sigma_0\in[0,1)$ and a real-valued function $\varepsilon(x)$ for which $\limsup_{x\to\infty}\varepsilon(x)\le 0$. For every set of primes ${\mathcal P}$ whose counting function $\pi_{\mathcal P}(x)$ satisfies an…

Let $\{p_n\}_{n\ge 1}$ be the sequence of primes and $\vartheta(x) = \sum_{p \leq x} \log p$, where $p$ runs over the primes not exceeding $x$, be the Chebyshev $\vartheta$-function. In this note we derive lower and upper bounds for…

We use an upper bound on Jacobsthal's function to complete a proof of a known density result. Apart from the bound on Jacobsthal's function used here, the proof we are completing uses only elementary methods and Dirichlet's theorem on the…
