We provide approximations to the prime counting function by various discretized versions of the logarithmic integral function, expressed solely in terms of the harmonic numbers. We demonstrate with explicit error bounds that these…
The prime number theorem, established by Hadamard and de la Vall'ee Poussin independently in 1896, asserts that the density of primes in the positive integers is asymptotic to 1 / ln x. Whereas their proofs made serious use of the methods…
We present an elementary proof of the prime number theorem. The relative error follows a golden ratio scaling law and respects the bound obtained from the Riemann's hypothesis. The proof is derived in the framework of a scale free…
The second Hardy-Littlewood conjecture asserts that the prime counting function $\pi(x)$ satisfies the subadditive inequality \begin{align*} \pi(x+y)\leqslant \pi(x)+\pi (y) \end{align*} for all integers $x,y\geqslant 2$. By linking the…
Let \(u\neq \pm 1,v^2\) be a fixed integer, let \(p\geq 2\) be a prime, and let $\text{ord}_p(u) \mid p-1$ be the multiplicative order of $u \text{ mod } p$. Define a prime counting function by $\pi(u,x)=\# \{ p\leq x:\text{ord}_p(u)=p-1…
In 1898 Charles Jean de la Valle Poussin, as part of his famed proof of the prime number theorem, developed an ineffective bound on the first Chebyshev function of the form: \[ |\theta(x)-x| = \mathcal{O}\left(x \exp(-K \sqrt{\ln…
We give a simple Tauberian proof of the Prime Number Theorem using only elementary real analysis. Hence, the analytic continuation of Riemann's zeta function $\zeta$ and its non-vanishing value on the whole line $\{z\in {\mathbb…
We prove that given $\lambda \in \mathbb{R}$ such that $0 < \lambda < 1$, then $\pi(x + x^\lambda) - \pi(x) \sim \displaystyle \frac{x^\lambda}{\log(x)}$. This solves a long-standing problem concerning the existence of primes in short…
It is shown that the Mean Value Theorem for arithmetic functions, and simple properties of the zeta function are sufficient to assemble proofs of the Prime Number Theorem, and Dirichlet Theorem. These are among the simplest proofs of the…
In this paper we give a new semiprimality test and we construct a new formula for $\pi ^{(2)}(N)$, the function that counts the number of semiprimes not exceeding a given number $N$. We also present new formulas to identify the $n^{th}$…
In this paper, we present a fixed point method for high-precision computation of number $\pi$ based on the sine function. Let $P\in \mathbb{N}$. We define the function: \[ S\left(x\right) =x+\sum_{k=1}^{P}\left(\prod_{\ell=1}^{k-1}\frac…
In this paper, we used the principle of sieve function transformation to improve sieve method and the prime number theorem in the arithmetic sequence.For this, we proved General Riemann Hypothesis and Riemann Hypothesis to be true. further,…
We prove that the error in the prime number theorem can be quantitatively improved beyond the Riemann Hypothesis bound by using versions of Montgomery's conjecture for the pair correlation of zeros of the Riemann zeta-function which are…
This article provides a proof that the Ramanujan's Inequality given by, $$\pi(x)^2 < \frac{e x}{\log x} \pi\Big(\frac{x}{e}\Big)$$ holds unconditionally for every $x\geq \exp(43.5102147)$. In case for an alternate proof of the result stated…
This work is a probabilistic study of the 'primes' of the Cram\'er model. We prove that there exists a set of integers $\mathcal S$ of density 1 such that \begin{equation}\liminf_{ \mathcal S\ni n\to\infty} (\log n)\mathbb{P} \{S_n\…
We study the number of primes with a given primitive root and in an arithmetic progression under the assumption of a suitable form of the generalized Riemann Hypothesis. Previous work of Lenstra, Moree and Stevenhagen has given asymptotics…
Let $\pi_{q,a}(x)$ denote the number of primes $\le x$ in the progression $a$ modulo $q$. We study subtle inequities in these functions, with $q$ fixed and variable $a$ (sometimes called 'prime race problems'). It is known unconditionally…
We introduce a class of integral theorems based on cyclic functions and Riemann sums approximating integrals. The Fourier integral theorem, derived as a combination of a transform and inverse transform, arises as a special case. The…
We generalize current known distribution results on Shanks--R\'enyi prime number races to the case where arbitrarily many residue classes are involved. Our method handles both the classical case that goes back to Chebyshev and function…
In this paper we give effective estimates for some classical arithmetic functions defined over prime numbers. First we find the smallest real number $x_0$ so that some inequality involving Chebyshev's $\vartheta$-function holds for every $x…
