This work gives a general approach to the determination of the asymptotic behavior of the sums of functions of primes based on the distribution of primes. It refines the estimate of the remainder term of the asymptotic expansion of the sums…

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…

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…

Let $\boldsymbol{\alpha}\in \mathbb{R}^N$ and $Q\geq 1$. We consider the sum $\sum_{\boldsymbol{q}\in [-Q,Q]^N\cap\mathbb{Z}^N\backslash\{\boldsymbol{0}\}}\|\boldsymbol{\alpha}\cdot\boldsymbol{q}\|^{-1}$. Sharp upper bounds are known when…

Sums over inverse s-th powers of semiprimes and k-almost primes are transformed into sums over products of powers of ordinary prime zeta functions. Multinomial coefficients known from the cycle decomposition of permutation groups play the…

Quite recently, in [8] the authoor of this paper considered the distribution of primes in the sequence $(S_n)$ whose $n$th term is defined as $S_n=\sum_{k=1}^{2n}p_k$, where $p_k$ is the $k$th prime. Some heuristic arguments and the…

Let $a(n)$ denote the number of non-isomorphic abelian groups with $n$ elements. In 1991 Ivi\'{c} proved an asymptotic formula of the sum $\sum_{n\leq x} a(n+ a(n)).$ In this paper, we will prove a sharper asymptotic formula for this sum.

A new derivation of the classic asymptotic expansion of the n-th prime is presented. A fast algorithm for the computation of its terms is also given, which will be an improvement of that by Salvy (1994). Realistic bounds for the error with…

We prove an asymptotic formula for the number of primes of the shape $a^2 +p^4$, thereby refining the well known work of Friedlander and Iwaniec. Along the way, we prove a result on equidistribution of primes up to $x$, in which the moduli…
