For $k\ge1$, let $R_k(x)$ denote the reciprocal sum up to $x$ of numbers with $k$ prime factors, counted with multiplicity. In prior work, the authors obtained estimates for $R_k(x)$, extending Mertens' second theorem, as well as a…

We evaluate the smoothed first moment of central values of a family of qudratic Hecke $L$-functions in the Gaussian field using the method of double Dirichlet series. The asymptotic formula we obtain has an error term of size…

In [18] we have shown that, for $p_{1},p_{2}\in(2,\infty]$, the constants of Bennett's inequality on unimodular bilinear forms on $\ell_{p_{1}}^{n_{1} }\times\ell_{p_{2}}^{n_{2}}$ are asymptotically bounded by $1$. In the present paper we…

Many results related to quantitative problems in the metric theory of Diophantine approximation are asymptotic, such as the number of rational solutions to certain inequalities grows with the same rate almost everywhere modulo an asymptotic…

Two elementary formulae for Mertens function $M(n)$ are obtained. With these formulae, $M(n)$ can be calculated directly and simply, which can be easily implemented by computer. $M (1) \sim M (2 \times 10^7) $ are calculated one by one.…

In 1874, Mertens proved the approximate formula for partial Euler product for Riemann zeta function at $s=1$, which is called Mertens' theorem. In this paper, we generalize Mertens' theorem for Selberg class and show the prime number…

We show that the functions $\sum_{p\leq x} (\log p)/p - \log x - E$ and $\sum_{p\leq x} 1/p - \log \log x -B$ change sign infinitely often, and that under certain assumptions, they exhibit a strong bias towards positive values. These…

A study of certain Hamiltonian systems has lead Y. Long to conjecture the existence of infinitely many primes of the form $p=2[\alpha n]+1$, where $1<\alpha<2$ is a fixed irrational number. An argument of P. Ribenboim coupled with classical…

In this paper we establish a general asymptotic formula for the sum of the first $n$ prime numbers, which leads to a generalization of the most accurate asymptotic formula given by Massias and Robin. Further we prove a series of results…

Assuming the validity of Riemann Hypothesis (RH), we derive the explicit bilateral estimates ("narrow passage") of the remainder in the modified Mertens asymptotic formula for the sums of primes' reciprocals. These results are reversable,…

An asymptotic formula for the sum of the first n primes is derived. This result improves the previous results of P. Dusart. Using this asymptotic expansion, we prove the conjectures of R. Mandl and G. Robin on the upper and the lower bound…

Let $a>1$. Denote by $l_a(p)$ the multiplicative order of $a$ modulo $p$. We look for an estimate of sum of $\frac{l_a(p)}{p-1}$ over primes $p\leq x$ on average. When we average over $a\leq N$, we observe a statistic of $C\mathrm{Li}(x)$.…
