Abstract

We note an interesting and under-expressed fact from Chebyshev's initial bounding for the prime counting function, π(x):=#{px:p prime},\pi(x) := \# \{p \leq x : p \text{ prime}\}, based upon a selection of fixed coefficients dDd\in D to show ψ(x)x\psi(x) \asymp x, and thus the goal of choosing some a(d)a(d) approximately the same as μ(d)\mu(d) such that: da(d)d=0,da(d)logdd1. \sum_{d}\frac{a(d)}{d} = 0, \quad \wedge \quad -\sum_{d}\frac{a(d)\log d}{d} \approx 1.
