We derive explicit upper bounds for various functions counting primes in arithmetic progressions. By way of example, if $q$ and $a$ are integers with $\gcd(a,q)=1$ and $3 \leq q \leq 10^5$, and $\theta(x;q,a)$ denotes the sum of the…

From known effective bounds on the prime counting function of the form \[ |\pi(x)-\mathrm{Li}(x)| < a \;x \;(\ln x)^{b} \; \exp\left(-{c}\; \sqrt{\ln x}\right); \qquad (x \geq x_0); \] it is possible to establish exponentially tight…

The primary purpose of this article is to study the asymptotic and numerical estimates in detail for higher degree polynomials in $\pi(x)$ having a general expression of the form, \begin{align*} P(\pi(x)) - \frac{e x}{\log x} Q(\pi(x/e)) +…

When solving a number of problems in prime number theory, it is sufficient that $t(x;q)$ admits an estimate close to this one. The best known estimates for $t(x;q)$ previously belonged to G.~Montgomery, R.~Vaughn, and Z.~Kh.~Rakhmonov. In…

We consider the estimation of two-sample integral functionals, of the type that occur naturally, for example, when the object of interest is a divergence between unknown probability densities. Our first main result is that, in wide…

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…

The author sharpens a result of Jia (1996), showing that the interval $[n, n+n^{\frac{1}{21.5}+\varepsilon}]$ contains prime numbers for almost all $n$. Watt's mean value bound, a delicate sieve decomposition and more accurate estimates for…

In this paper, we propose a new primality test, and then we employ this test to find a formula for {\pi} that computes the number of primes within any interval. We finally propose a new formula that computes the nth prime number as well as…

We describe an algorithm for arbitrary-precision computation of the elementary functions (exp, log, sin, atan, etc.) which, after a cheap precomputation, gives roughly a factor-two speedup over previous state-of-the-art algorithms at…

We obtain optimal lower bounds for moments of theta functions. On the other hand, we also get new upper bounds on individual theta values and moments of theta functions on average over primes. The upper bounds are based on bounds of…

The focus of this article is the approximation of functions which are analytic on a compact interval except at the endpoints. Typical numerical methods for approximating such functions depend upon the use of particular conformal maps from…

Let $\alpha$ be a real number such that $1< \alpha <2$ and let $x_0=x_0(\alpha)$ be a {\rm(}unique{\rm)} positive solution of the equation $$ x^{\alpha-1} -\frac{\pi}{e^2\sqrt{3}}x +1=0. $$ Then we prove that for each positive integer…

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.

The distribution of prime numbers is here considered. We show a formula for $li^{-1}$ and we study the $\pi(x)$ function and Riemann's hypothesis.
