Assume the Riemann hypothesis throughout. We obtain some new estimates for the size of the set of large values of the error term in the prime number theorem. Our argument is based on an analysis of the behavior of zeros of the Riemann zeta…

Baker, Harman, and Pintz showed that a weak form of the Prime Number Theorem holds in intervals of the form $[x-x^{0.525},x]$ for large $x$. In this paper, we extend a result of Maynard and Tao concerning small gaps between primes to…

We provide for a wide class of zero-free regions an upper bound for the error term in the Prime Number Theorem, refining works of Pintz (1980), Johnston (2024), and R\'ev\'esz (2024). Our method does not only apply to the Riemann zeta…

This article considers the error term of the primes counting function. It applies some recent results on the densities of prime numbers in short intervals to derive an improvement of the error term from subexponential size to fractional…

95 years ago Hoheisel proved the existence of primes in the sub-linear interval \[ \left[x, x+x^{1-{1\over 33000}}\right] \qquad \hbox{for $x$ sufficiently large}. \] This was improved by Heilbronn, proving existence of primes in the…

Fix $\delta\in(0,1]$, $\sigma_0\in[0,1)$ and a real-valued function $\varepsilon(x)$ for which $\limsup_{x\to\infty}\varepsilon(x)\le 0$. For every set of primes ${\mathcal P}$ whose counting function $\pi_{\mathcal P}(x)$ satisfies an…

By considering the prime zeta function, the author intended to demonstrate in that the Riemann zeta function zeta(s) does not vanish for Re(s)>1/2, which would have proven the Riemann hypothesis. However, he later realised that the proof of…

We use exponent pairs to establish the existence of many $x^a$-smooth numbers in short intervals $[x-x^b,x]$, when $a>1/2$. In particular, $b=1-a-a(1-a)^3$ is admissible. Assuming the exponent-pairs conjecture, one can take…

$\Theta$ function is defined based upon Kronecher symbol. In light of the principle of inclusion-exclusion, $\Theta$ function of sine function is used to denote the distribution of composites and primes. The structure of Goldbach Conjecture…

This note discusses the existence of prime numbers in short intervals. An unconditional elementary argument seems to prove the existence of primes in the short intervals [x, x + y], where y >= x^(1/2)(log x)^e, e > 0, and a sufficiently…

In this paper we first establish new explicit estimates for Chebyshev's $\vartheta$-function. Applying these new estimates, we derive new upper and lower bounds for some functions defined over the prime numbers, for instance the prime…

We prove the analog of Cram\'er's short intervals theorem for primes in arithmetic progressions and prime ideals, under the relevant Riemann Hypothesis. Both results are uniform in the data of the underlying structure. Our approach is based…

We seek to understand how the technical definition of Lehmer pair can be related to more analytic properties of the Riemann zeta function, particularly the location of the zeros of $\zeta^\prime(s)$. Because we are interested in the…

Using recent results from the theory of integer points close to smooth curves, we give an asymptotic formula for the distribution of values of a class of integer-valued prime-independent multiplicative functions.

Of what use are the zeros of the Riemann zeta function? We can use sums involving zeta zeros to count the primes up to $x$. Perron's formula leads to sums over zeta zeros that can count the squarefree integers up to $x$, or tally Euler's…

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…

Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis, we provide explicit upper bounds for moduli of $S(t)$, $S_1(t)$, and $\zeta\left(1/2+\mathrm{i}t\right)$ while comparing them with recently proven unconditional ones. As a corollary we obtain a conditional…

Let $Q$ be a set of primes with relative density $\delta$. We count integers in $[1,x]$ with prime factors all in $Q$ that also have a divisor in $(y,2y]$. We establish the order of magnitude for all $\delta \in (0,1]$. This generalizes the…
