By combining and improving recent techniques and results, we provide explicit estimates for the error terms $|\pi(x)-\text{li}(x)|$, $|\theta(x)-x|$ and $|\psi(x)-x|$ appearing in the prime number theorem. For example, we show for all…

In this paper, we introduced the theory of the sieve function transformation. Using the principle of sieve function transformation, we improved sieve method, and obtained the difference range of similar sieve function values. For this, we…

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…

We revisit several hybrid multiplicative-to-additive type functions from a recent preprint article. These functions, $g(n)$ with Dirichlet generating function (DGF) $\zeta(s)^{-1} (1+P(s))^{-1}$ for $\Re(s) > 1$ where $P(s) = \sum_p p^{-s}$…

In this paper, we study the counting functions $\psi_\mathcal{P}(x)$, $N_\mathcal{P}(x)$ and $M_\mathcal{P}(x)$ of a generalized prime system $\mathcal{N}$. Here $M_\mathcal{P}(x)$ is the partial sum of the M\"{o}bius function over…

We give an estimate for sums appearing in the Nyman-Beurling criterion for the Riemann Hypothesis. These sums contain the M\"obius function and are related to the imaginary part of the Estermann zeta function. The estimate is remarkably…

The finite Dirichlet series from the title are defined by the condition that they vanish at as many initial zeroes of the zeta function as possible. It turned out that such series can produce extremely good approximations to the values of…

The purpose of this article is to introduce the concept of invariance and its properties. These properties can be used to check the primality of a number. Combining these properties with the Euler theorem, it is possible to generalize this…

In the first part, we consider generalized quadratic Gauss sums as finite analogues of the Jacobi theta function, and the reciprocity law for Gauss sums as their transformation formula. We attach finite Dirichlet series to Gauss sums using…

In his paper "On the Number of Primes Less Than a Given Magnitude", Bernhard Riemann introduced a prime counting function F(x) which counts the number of primes under x. Riemann obtained an analytic expression for F(x) by evaluating an…

In this paper we propose an algorithm that correctly discards a set of numbers (from a previously defined sieve) with an interval of integers. Leopoldo's Theorem states that the remaining integer numbers will generate and count the complete…

We approach a new proof of the strong Goldbach's conjecture for sufficiently large even integers by applying the Dirichlet's series. Using the Perron formula and the Residue Theorem in complex variable integration, one could show that any…
