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…
We study the distribution functions of several classical error terms in analytic number theory, focusing on the remainder term in the Dirichlet divisor problem $\Delta(x)$. We first bound the discrepancy between the distribution function of…
The author gives nontrivial upper and lower bounds for the number of primes in the interval $[x - x^{\theta}, x]$ for some $0.52 \leqslant \theta \leqslant 0.525$, showing that the interval $[x - x^{0.52}, x]$ contains prime numbers for all…
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.
The prime counting function inequality $\pi(x+y) < \pi(x)+\pi(y)$, which is known as Hardy-Littlewood conjecture, has been established for a variety of cases such as $ \delta x \leq y \leq x$, where $0< \delta \leq 1$, and $x \leq y\leq x…
For a fixed exponent $0 < \theta \leq 1$, it is expected that we have the prime number theorem in short intervals $\sum_{x \leq n < x+x^\theta} \Lambda(n) \sim x^\theta$ as $x \to \infty$. From the recent zero density estimates of Guth and…
We improve the upper bound of the following inequalities for the gamma function $\Gamma$ due to H. Alzer and the author. \begin{equation*}…
Assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis, we provide uniform upper bounds with explicit main terms for moduli of $\left(\cL'/\cL\right)(s)$ and $\log{\cL(s)}$ for $1/2+\delta\leq\sigma<1$, fixed $\delta\in(0,1/2)$ and for functions in…
Let $\left[x\right]$ be the largest integer not exceeding $x$. For $0<\theta \leq 1$, let $\pi_{\theta}(x)$ denote the number of integers $n$ with $1 \leq n \leq x^{\theta}$ such that $\left[\frac{x}{n}\right]$ is prime and…
We present the formalization of Dirichlet's theorem on the infinitude of primes in arithmetic progressions, and Selberg's elementary proof of the prime number theorem, which asserts that the number $\pi(x)$ of primes less than $x$ is…
For $i\in \{1,2,3\}$, let $E_i(x)$ denote the error term in each of the three theorems of Mertens on the asymptotic distribution of prime numbers. We show that for $i\in \{1,2\}$ the Riemann hypothesis is equivalent to the condition…
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…
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…
Let \beta be a real number. Then for almost all irrational \alpha>0 (in the sense of Lebesgue measure) \limsup_{x\to\infty}\pi_{\alpha,\beta}^*(x)(\log x)^2/x>=1, where \pi_{\alpha,\beta}^*(x)={p<=x: both p and [\alpha p+\beta] are primes}.
We show that, on the Riemann hypothesis, $\limsup_{X\to\infty}I(X)/X^{2} \leq 0.8603$, where $I(X) = \int_X^{2X} (\psi(x)-x)^2\,dx.$ This proves (and improves on) a claim by Pintz from 1982. We also show unconditionally that…
We examine the size of $E_{2}(T)$, the error term in the asymptotic formula for $\int_{0}^{T} |\zeta(1/2 + it)|^{4}\, dt$ where $\zeta(s)$ is the Riemann zeta-function. We make improvements in the powers of $\log T$ in the known bounds for…
In this article, we prove an explicit bound for $N(\sigma,T)$, the number of zeros of the Riemann zeta function satisfying $\sigma < \Re s <1 $ and $0 < \Im s < T$. This result provides a significant improvement over Rosser's bound for…
We make explicit a theorem of Pintz concerning the error term in the prime number theorem. This gives an improved version of the prime number theorem with error term roughly square-root of that which was previously known. We apply this to a…
Let $f(z)=\sum_{n=1}^\infty a(n)e^{2\pi i nz}\in S_k^{new}(\Gamma_0(N))$ be a newform of even weight $k\geq2$ that does not have complex multiplication. Then $a(n)\in\mathbb{R}$ for all $n$, so for any prime $p$, there exists…
In this paper we establish a new explicit upper and lower bound for the $n$-th prime number, which improve the currently best estimates given by Dusart in 2010. As the main tool we use some recently obtained explicit estimates for the prime…
