We prove an explicit error term for the $\psi(x,\chi)$ function assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis. Using this estimate, we prove a conditional explicit bound for the number of primes in arithmetic progressions.

In this paper we present a new perspective on error analysis of Legendre approximations for differentiable functions. We start by introducing a sequence of Legendre-Gauss-Lobatto polynomials and prove their theoretical properties, such as…

Let $n,k\in\mathbb{N}$ and let $p_{n}$ denote the $n$th prime number. We define $p_{n}^{(k)}$ recursively as $p_{n}^{(1)}:=p_{n}$ and $p_{n}^{(k)}=p_{p_{n}^{(k-1)}}$, that is, $p_{n}^{(k)}$ is the $p_{n}^{(k-1)}$th prime. In this note we…

We improve the previuosly known bound for some vertex Folkman numbers.

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…

We prove a new mean-value theorem for Dirichlet polynomials with coefficients given by the von Mangoldt function. We then use our theorem to derive new estimates for certain exponential sums over primes. The latter have applications to…

We obtain the decay bounds for Chebyshev series coefficients of functions with finite Vitali variation on the unit square. A generalization of the well known identity, which relates exact and approximated coefficients, obtained using the…

We investigate the existence of bounded-memory consistent estimators of various statistical functionals. This question is resolved in the negative in a rather strong sense. We propose various bounded-memory approximations, using techniques…

Signal processing makes extensive use of point estimators and accompanying error bounds. These work well up until the likelihood function has two or more high peaks. When it is important for an estimator to remain reliable, it becomes…

We obtain new upper and lower bounds on the number of unit perimeter triangles spanned by points in the plane. We also establish improved bounds in the special case where the point set is a section of the integer grid.

We give an explicit upper bound for non-principal Dirichlet $L$-functions on the line $s=1+it$. This result can be applied to improve the error in the zero-counting formulae for these functions.

We show that the existence of arithmetic progressions with few primes, with a quantitative bound on "few", implies the existence of larger gaps between primes less than x than is currently known unconditionally. In particular, we derive…

We provide a new version of the Wiener-Ikehara theorem where one deduces bounds $$ 0< \liminf_{x\to\infty} \frac{S(x)}{e^{x}}\leq \limsup_{x\to\infty} \frac{S(x)}{e^{x}} <\infty $$ for (in particular) a non-decreasing function $S$ from a…

Ferrers diagrams are used to visually represent integer partitions. We describe a way to use Ferrers diagrams to uniquely represent integers in terms of their prime factors. This leads to a lower bound on the number of primes less than a…

For a fixed exponent $0 < \theta \leq 1$, it is expected that we have the prime number theorem in short intervals $\sum_{x \leq n < x+x^\theta} \Lambda(n) \sim x^\theta$ as $x \to \infty$. From the recent zero density estimates of Guth and…

For $x>0$ let $\pi(x)$ denote the number of primes not exceeding $x$. For integers $a$ and $m>0$, we determine when there is an integer $n>1$ with $\pi(n)=(n+a)/m$. In particular, we show that for any integers $m>2$ and $a\le\lceil…

This paper discusses a few main topics in Number Theory, such as the M\"{o}bius function and its generalization, leading up to the derivation of neat power series for the prime counting function, $\pi(x)$, and the prime-power counting…

We prove that the Riemann hypothesis is equivalent to the condition $\int_{2}^x\left(\pi(t)-\text{li}(t)\right)\mathrm{d}t<0$ for all $x>2$. Here, $\pi(t)$ is the prime-counting function and $\text{li}(t)$ is the logarithmic integral. This…

Let $\varphi(n)$ denote the Euler totient function. In this paper, we first establish a new upper bound for $n/\varphi(n)$ involving $K(n)$, the function that counts the number of primorials not exceeding $n$. In particular, this leads to…

Our objective in this paper is to introduce and investigate a newly-constructed subclass of normalized analytic and bi-univalent functions by means of the Chebyshev polynomials of the second kind. Upper bounds for the second and third…
