We show how to carry out a sieve of Eratosthenes up to N in space O(N^{1/3} (log N)^{2/3}) and time O(N log N). These bounds constitute an improvement over the usual versions of the sieve, which take space about O(sqrt{N}) and time at least…

Using a sieve procedure akin to the sieve of Eratosthenes we show how for each prime $p$ to build the corresponding M\"obius prime-function, which in the limit of infinitely large primes becomes identical to the original M\"obius function.…
