Prime number theorem asserts that (at large $x$) the prime counting function $\pi(x)$ is approximately the logarithmic integral $\mbox{li}(x)$. In the intermediate range, Riemann prime counting function $\mbox{Ri}^{(N)}(x)=\sum_{n=1}^N…

The prime-counting function $\pi(x)$ which computes the number of primes smaller or equal to a given real number has a long-standing interest in number theory. The present manuscript proposes a method to compute $\pi(x)$ with time…

We prove some results concerning the distribution of primes on the Riemann hypothesis. First, we prove the explicit result that there exists a prime in the interval $(x-\frac{4}{\pi} \sqrt{x} \log x,x]$ for all $x \geq 2$; this improves a…

We prove a prime number theorem first for the classical Rankin-Selberg L-function $L(s,\pi\times\pi')$ over any Galois extension with $\pi$ and $\pi'$ unitary automorphic cuspidal representations of $GL_n$ and $GL_m$ respectively with at…

We show that for Beurling generalized numbers the prime number theorem in remainder form $$\pi(x) = \operatorname*{Li}(x) + O\left(\frac{x}{\log^{n}x}\right) \quad \mbox{for all } n\in\mathbb{N}$$ is equivalent to (for some $a>0$) $$N(x) =…

We prove several asymptotic continued fraction expansions of $\pi(x)$, $\Pi(x)$, $\operatorname{li}(x)$, $\operatorname{Ri}(x)$, and related functions, where $\pi(x)$ is the prime counting function, $\Pi(x) = \sum_{k = 1}^\infty…

We introduce the weighted prime sum $S(x) = \sum_{p \le x} \sqrt{(\log p)/p}$ and the derived quantity $E(x) = S(x)^2 - M(x)$, where $M(x) = \sum_{p \le x} (\log p)/p$. We prove that the order-of-magnitude estimate $S(x) \asymp \sqrt{x /…

Let pi(x) denote the number of primes smaller or equal to x. We compare sqrt{pi}(x) with sqrt{R}(x) and sqrt{li}(x), where R(x) and li(x) are the Riemann function and the logarithmic integral, respectively. We show a regularity in the…
