We present the formalization of Dirichlet's theorem on the infinitude of primes in arithmetic progressions, and Selberg's elementary proof of the prime number theorem, which asserts that the number $\pi(x)$ of primes less than $x$ is…

It is known that there are infinitely-many prime numbers which take the form of a polynomial of degree one with integer coefficients, this is Dirichlet's theorem. We use an elementary sieving argument together with bounds on the prime…

Dirichlet's proof of infinitely many primes in arithmetic progressions was published in 1837, introduced L-series for the first time, and it is said to have started rigorous analytic number theory. Dirichlet uses Euler's earlier work on the…

Assuming the Riemann hypothesis, we prove the latest explicit version of the prime number theorem for short intervals. Using this result, and assuming the generalised Riemann hypothesis for Dirichlet $L$-functions is true, we then establish…

It is shown that the Mean Value Theorem for arithmetic functions, and simple properties of the zeta function are sufficient to assemble proofs of the Prime Number Theorem, and Dirichlet Theorem. These are among the simplest proofs of the…

In this article we study in depth the Dirichlet theorem, which states that if a, b are relative prime integers, the sequence p = an + b contains infinite prime numbers, we simplify and generalize this theorem, we enunciate some special…

Let $p$ be a prime number, and $h$ a positive integer such that $\gcd(p,h)=1$. We prove, without invoking Dirichlet's theorem, that the arithmetic progression $p\left(\mathbf{N}\cup \{0\}\right)+h$ contains infinitely many prime numbers.…

We consider the summatory function of the number of prime factors for integers $\leq x$ over arithmetic progressions. Numerical experiments suggest that some arithmetic progressions consist more number of prime factors than others. Greg…
