Let ${\mathcal{P}_{n}}$ denote the set of positive integers which are prime to $n$. Let $B_{n}$ be the $n$-th Bernoulli number. For any prime $p\ge 5$ and $r\ge 2$, we prove that \begin{equation} \sum\limits_{\begin{smallmatrix}…

We present the first fixed-length elementary closed-form expressions for the prime-counting function, $\pi(n)$, and the $n$-th prime number, $p(n)$. These expressions are arithmetic terms, requiring only a finite and fixed number of…
Consider a family of distributions $\{\pi_{\beta}\}$ where $X\sim\pi_{\beta}$ means that $\mathbb{P}(X=x)=\exp(-\beta H(x))/Z(\beta)$. Here $Z(\beta)$ is the proper normalizing constant, equal to $\sum_x\exp(-\beta H(x))$. Then…
Two sums over the inverse of the product of an integer n and its greatest prime factor G(n), are computed to first 13 decimal digits. These sums converge, but converge very slowly. They are transformed into sums involving Mertens' prime…
We present a new formula for the Bernoulli numbers as the following integral $$B_{2m} =\frac{(-1)^{m-1}}{2^{2m+1}} \int_{-\infty}^{+\infty} (\frac{d^{m-1}}{dx^{m-1}} {sech}^2 x)^2dx. $$ This formula is motivated by the results of Fairlie…
An algorithm is devised for computing $\Phi(n) = \phi(1) + \phi(2) + \cdots + \phi(n)$ in time $\widetilde{\Theta}(n^{2/3})$ and space $\widetilde{\Theta}(n^{1/3})$. The starting point is an existing algorithm based on the Dirichlet…
