Nicolas criterion for the Riemann Hypothesis is based on an inequality that Euler totient function must satisfy at primorial numbers. A natural approach to derive this inequality would be to prove that a specific sequence related to that…

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…

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 $\prod_{k=1}^n p_k$,…

In this article, we prove that an asymptotic formula for the prime number race with respect to Fermat curves of prime degree is equivalent to part of the Deep Riemann Hypothesis (DRH), which is a conjecture on the convergence of partial…

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.

First idea is to compute a quantity like the angular momentum with respect to (0, 0), of an unitary mass of coordinates (<[Xi(s)], =[Xi(s)]) while =[s] is the time, and, <[s] = constant. If we impose that the derivative along <[s], at…

We present a purely analytical inequality which is equivalent to the Riemann hypothesis (RH). The proof of the equivalence is based on a representation of the modulus of the Riemann $\xi$ function. As the first step to analyze the…

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…

Reasons for the emergence of Chebyshev's bias were investigated. The Deep Riemann Hypothesis (DRH) enables us to reveal that the bias is a natural phenomenon for achieving a well-balanced disposition of the whole sequence of primes, in the…

The Riemann hypothesis (RH) is a long-standing open problem in mathematics. It conjectures that non-trivial zeros of the zeta function all have real part equal to 1/2. The extent of the consequences of RH is far-reaching and touches a wide…

The Riemann hypothesis (RH) is well known. In this paper we would show some sufficient conditions for the RH. The first condition is related with the sum of divisors function and another one is related with the Chebyshev's function.

Robin's criterion states that the Riemann hypothesis is equivalent to $\sigma(n) < e^\gamma n \log\log n$ for all integers $n \geq 5041$, where $\sigma(n)$ is the sum of divisors of $n$ and $\gamma$ is the Euler-Mascheroni constant. We…

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 try to apply a known equivalence, for RH about Riemann Z function, to Dirichlet L functions with primitive characters. The aim is to give a small contribution to the proof of the generalized version of Riemann Hypothesis (RH).

This paper shows the equivalence of the Riemann hypothesis to an sequence of elementary inequalities involving the harmonic numbers H_n, the sum of the reciprocals of the integers from 1 to n. It is a modification of a criterion due to Guy…

We introduce a discrete dynamical system on the integers, defined by moving a composite $m$ forward to $m+\pi(m)$ and a prime $p$ backward to $p-\mathrm{prevprime}(p)$. This map produces trajectories whose contraction properties are closely…

The aim of this paper is to give a direct interpretation of the validity of the Riemann hypothesis up to a certain height $T$ in terms of the prime-counting function $\pi(x)$. This is done by proving the well-known explicit Schoenfeld bound…

Robin's criterion states that the Riemann Hypothesis (RH) is true if and only if Robin's inequality sum_{d|n}d<e^{gamma}n loglog n is satisfied for n>=5041, where gamma denotes the Euler(-Mascheroni) constant. We show by elementary methods…
