In this paper, we develop a novel analytic method to prove the prime number theorem in de la Vall\'ee Poussin's form: $$ \pi(x)=\operatorname{li}(x)+\mathcal O(xe^{-c\sqrt{\log x}}) $$ Instead of performing asymptotic expansion on Chebyshev…
Let $ x\geq 1 $ be a large number, let $ [x]=x-\{x\} $ be the largest integer function, and let $ \varphi(n)$ be the Euler totient function. The result $ \sum_{n\leq x}\varphi([x/n])=(6/\pi^2)x\log x+O\left ( x(\log x)^{2/3}(\log\log…
An improved estimate is given for $|\theta(x) -x|$, where $\theta(x) = \sum_{p\leq x} \log p$. Three applications are given: the first to arithmetic progressions that have points in common, the second to primes in short intervals, and the…
In this paper, we establish new bounds for classical prime-counting functions. All of our bounds are explicit and assume the Riemann Hypothesis. First, we prove that $|\psi(x) - x|$ and $|\vartheta(x) - x|$ are bounded from above by…
In this article, we improve the recent work of Hasanalizade, Shen, and Wong by establishing \[ \left| N (T) - \frac{T}{ 2 \pi} \log \left( \frac{T}{2\pi e}\right) \right|\le 0.10076\log T+0.24460\log\log T+8.08344, \] for every $T\ge e$,…
Let $a>1$ be an integer. Denote by $l_a(p)$ the multiplicative order of $a$ modulo primes $p$. We prove that if $\frac{x}{\log x\log\log x}=o(y)$, then $$\frac 1 y \sum_{a\leq y}\sum_{p\leq x}\frac{1}{l_a(p)}=\log x + C\log\log…
We present an improved version of the analytic method for calculating $\pi(x)$, the number of prime numbers not exceeding $x$. We implemented this method in cooperation with J. Franke, T. Kleinjung and A. Jost and calculated the value…
The primary purpose of this article is to study the asymptotic and numerical estimates in detail for higher degree polynomials in $\pi(x)$ having a general expression of the form, \begin{align*} P(\pi(x)) - \frac{e x}{\log x} Q(\pi(x/e)) +…
In this paper we discuss a method to express the Prime counting function as a "sum" over Non-trivial zeros of Riemann Zeta function, using techniques from Analytic Number Theory, also we apply our results to the sum over primes of any…
This paper discusses a few main topics in Number Theory, such as the M\"{o}bius function and its generalization, leading up to the derivation of neat power series for the prime counting function, $\pi(x)$, and the prime-power counting…
Let $N$ be the counting function of a Beurling generalized number system and let $\pi$ be the counting function of its primes. We show that the $L^{1}$-condition $$ \int_{1}^{\infty}|\frac{N(x)-ax}{x}|\frac{\mathrm{d}x}{x}<\infty $$ and the…
We prove some results concerning the distribution of primes on the Riemann hypothesis. First, we prove the explicit result that there exists a prime in the interval $(x-\frac{4}{\pi} \sqrt{x} \log x,x]$ for all $x \geq 2$; this improves a…
We prove several asymptotic continued fraction expansions of $\pi(x)$, $\Pi(x)$, $\operatorname{li}(x)$, $\operatorname{Ri}(x)$, and related functions, where $\pi(x)$ is the prime counting function, $\Pi(x) = \sum_{k = 1}^\infty…
Let $x\geq 1$ be a large number, and let $1 \leq a <q $ be integers such that $\gcd(a,q)=1$ and $q=O(\log^c)$ with $c>0$ constant. This note proves that the counting function for the number of primes $p \in \{p=qn+a: n \geq1 \}$ with a…
In this paper we give effective estimates for some classical arithmetic functions defined over prime numbers. First we find the smallest real number $x_0$ so that some inequality involving Chebyshev's $\vartheta$-function holds for every $x…
Two topics of the number theory are discussed in this paper. First, we prove that given each natural number $x\geq10^{3}$, we have \[ |{\rm Li}(x)-\pi(x)|\leq c\sqrt{x}\log x\texttt{ and } \pi(x)={\rm Li}(x)+O(\sqrt{x}\log x) \] where $c$…
A sharp asymptotic formula for the sum of reciprocals of $\pi(n)$ is derived, where $\pi(x)$ is the number of primes not exceeding $x$. This result improves the previous results of De Koninck--Ivi\'c and L. Panaitopol.
We introduce approximation functions of $li(x)$ for all $x\ge e$: (1) $\displaystyle li_{\underline{\omega},\alpha}(x) = \frac{x}{\log(x)}\left( \alpha\frac{\underline{m}!}{\log^{\underline{m}}(x)} +…
We improve on all the results of [13] by incorporating the finite range computations performed since then by several authors. Thus we have \begin{align*} \Bigg|\sum_{n\le X}\mu(n)\Bigg| &\le \frac{0.006688\,X}{\log X},&&\text{for } X\ge…
We present the first fixed-length elementary closed-form expressions for the prime-counting function, $\pi(n)$, and the $n$-th prime number, $p(n)$. These expressions are arithmetic terms, requiring only a finite and fixed number of…
