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…

Robin's criterion states that the Riemann Hypothesis (RH) is true if and only if Robin's inequality $\sigma(n):=\sum_{p|n}p<e^{\gamma} n \log \log n$ is satisfied for $n > 5040$, where $\gamma$ denotes the Euler-Mascheroni constant. We show…

We provide new, elementary proofs that Robin's inequality and the Lagarias inequality hold for almost every number, including all numbers not divisible by one of the prime numbers $2$, $3$, $5$; all primorials; given $k$ a natural number,…

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…

In 1984, G. Robin proved that the Riemann hypothesis is true if and only if the Robin inequality $\sigma(n)<e^\gamma n\log\log n$ holds for every integer $n>5040$, where $\sigma(n)$ is the sum of divisors function, and $\gamma$ is the…

We study the Lagarias inequality, an elementary criterion equivalent to the Riemann Hypothesis. Using a continuous extension of the harmonic numbers, we show that the sequence $B_n=\frac{H_n+e^{H_n}\log(H_n)}{n}$ is strictly increasing for…

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…

For n>1, let G(n)=\sigma(n)/(n log log n), where \sigma(n) is the sum of the divisors of n. We prove that the Riemann Hypothesis is true if and only if 4 is the only composite number N satisfying G(N) \ge \max(G(N/p),G(aN)), for all prime…

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…

The conjectured Robin inequality for an integer $n>7!$ is $\sigma(n)<e^\gamma n \log \log n,$ where $\gamma$ denotes Euler constant, and $\sigma(n)=\sum_{d | n} d $. Robin proved that this conjecture is equivalent to Riemann hypothesis…

There are many formulations of problems that have been proven to be equivalent to the Riemann Hypothesis in modern mathematics. In this paper we look at the formulation of an inequality derived by Robin in 1984 that proves the Riemann…

Robin's theorem is one of the ingenious reformulation of the Riemann hypothesis (RH). It states that the RH is true if and only if $\sigma(n)<e^\gamma n\log\log n$ for all $n>5040$ where $\sigma(n)$ is the sum of divisors of $n$ and…

Robin's Inequality posits $G(n)<e^{\gamma}$ for $n>5040$. Robin also showed that if the Riemann Hypothesis (RH) is false, then $G(n)>e^{\gamma}\left(1+\displaystyle\frac{c}{(\log n)^{b}}\right)$ for infinitely many values of $n$. By…

In this paper we give a variant of the Robin inequality which states that $\frac{\sigma(n)}{n} \leq \frac{e^\gamma}{2} \log\log n + \frac{0.7398\cdots}{\log\log n}$ for any odd integer $n \geq 3$.

Define $s (n) := n^{- 1} \sigma (n)$ ($\sigma (n):=\sum_{d|n}d )$ and $\omega(n)$ is the number of prime divisors of $n$. One of the properties of $s$ plays a central role: $s (p^a) > s (q^b)$ if $p < q$ are prime numbers, with no special…
