Let $\Delta(x)$ denote the error term in the Dirichlet divisor problem. Our main results are the asymptotic formulas $$ \int_1^X \Delta^3(x){\rm d}x = BX^{7/4} + O_\epsilon(X^{\beta+\epsilon}) \qquad(B > 0) $$ and $$ \int_1^X…

Lindel{\"o}f's hypothesis, one of the most important open problems in the history of mathematics, states that for large $t$, Riemann's zeta function $\zeta(1/2+it)$ is of order $O(t^{\varepsilon})$ for any $\varepsilon>0$ . It is well known…

A highly strong upper estimate in the modified asymptotic formula for sums of the primes' reciprocals is proved to be necessary (as well as sufficient) in order the Ramanujan inequality holds true. Some other criteria in similar terms are…

This article proves that there are infinitely many primes of the form a^2 + b^4, in fact getting the asymptotic formula. The main result is that \sum_{a^2 + b^4\le x} \Lambda(a^2 + b^4) = 4\pi^{-1}\kappa x^{3/4} (1 + O(\log\log x / \log x))…

Recently, we have established the generalized Li's criterion equivalent to the Riemann hypothesis, viz. demonstrated that the sums over all non-trivial Riemann function zeroes k_n,b=Sum_rho(1-(1-((rho+b)/(rho-b-1))**n) for any real b not…

For $n \geq 3$, an asymptotic formula is derived for the number of representations of a sufficiently large natural number $N$ in the form $p_1+p_2+m^n=N$, where $p_1$, $p_2$ $-$ prime numbers, $m$ $-$ natural number satisfying the…

Lin's theorem states that for all $\epsilon > 0$, there is a $\delta > 0$ such that for all $n \geq 1$ if self-adjoint contractions $A,B \in M_n(\mathbb{C})$ satisfy $\|[A,B]\|< \delta$ then there are self-adjoint contractions $A',B' \in…

The Brent-McMillan algorithm is the fastest known procedure for the high-precision computation of Euler's constant $\gamma$ and is based on the modified Bessel functions $I_0(2x)$ and $K_0(2x)$. An error estimate for this algorithm relies…

We use a Mellin-Barnes integral representation for the Lerch transcendent $\Phi(z,s,a)$ to obtain large $z$ asymptotic approximations. The simplest divergent asymptotic approximation terminates in the case that $s$ is an integer. For…

Let $s$, $\ell$ be two integers such that $2\le s\le \ell-1$, $\ell\ge 3$. We prove that a suitable asymptotic formula for the average number of representations of integers $n=\sum_{i=1}^{s} p_{i}^{\ell}$, where $p_i$, $i=1,\dotsc,s$, are…

The Stieltjes constants $\gamma_k(a)$ appear in the regular part of the Laurent expansion for the Hurwitz zeta function $\zeta(s,a)$. We present summatory results for these constants $\gamma_k(a)$ in terms of fundamental mathematical…

We study the double character sum $\sum\limits_{\substack{m\leq X,\\m\odd}}\sum\limits_{\substack{n\leq Y,\\n\odd}}\leg mn$ and its smoothly weighted counterpart. An asymptotic formula with power saving error term was obtained by Conrey,…

This paper studies the first moment of symmetric-square $L$-functions at the critical point in the weight aspect. Asymptotics with the best known error term $O(k^{-1/2})$ were obtained independently by Fomenko in 2005 and by Sun in 2013. We…

Exact and asymptotic formulae are displayed for the coefficients $\lambda_n$ used in Li's criterion for the Riemann Hypothesis. For $n \to \infty$ we obtain that if (and only if) the Hypothesis is true, $\lambda_n \sim n(A \log n +B)$ (with…

Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis we obtain asymptotic estimates for the mean value of the number of representations of an integer as a sum of two primes. By proving a corresponding Omega-term, we prove that our result is essentially the best…

We give lower bounds for the small moments of the sum of a random multiplicative function, which improve on some results of Bondarenko and Seip and constitute further progress towards (dis)proving a conjecture of Helson. We also prove…

Many combinatorial sequences (for example, the Catalan and Motzkin numbers) may be expressed as the constant term of $P(x)^k Q(x)$, for some Laurent polynomials $P(x)$ and $Q(x)$ in the variable $x$ with integer coefficients. Denoting such…

\noindent Using the techniques connected with the measure of noncompactness we investigate the neutral difference equation of the following form \begin{equation*} \Delta \left(r_{n}\left(\Delta \left(x_{n}+p_{n}x_{n-k}\right) \right)…

We find the best possible constant $C$ in the inequality $$\|\varphi\|_{L^r}^{\phantom{\frac{p}{r}}}\leq C\|\varphi\|_{L^p}^{\frac{p}{r}}\|\varphi\|_{\mathrm{BMO}}^{1-\frac{p}{r}}$$ for all possible values of parameters $p$ and $r$ such…

Analytical expressions are derived for the position of irreducible fractions in the Farey sequence $F_N$ of order $N$ for a particular choice of $N$. The asymptotic behaviour is derived obtaining a lower error bound than in previous results…
