Limiting distributions of the classical error terms of prime number theory

A Akbary, N Ng, M Shahabi - The Quarterly Journal of …, 2014 - academic.oup.com
In this article, we prove a general theorem which establishes the existence of limiting
distributions for a wide class of error terms from prime number theory. As a corollary to our …

The distribution of weighted sums of the Liouville function and Pólyaʼs conjecture

P Humphries - Journal of Number Theory, 2013 - Elsevier
Under the assumption of the Riemann hypothesis, the Linear Independence hypothesis, and
a bound on negative discrete moments of the Riemann zeta function, we prove the existence …

Comparative Prime Number Theory Problem List

A Hamieh, H Kadiri, G Martin, N Ng - arXiv preprint arXiv:2407.03530, 2024 - arxiv.org
This is a list of problems that were collected from participants at the Comparative Prime
Number Theory Symposium held at UBC from June 17 to June 21, 2024. Its goal is to …

Chebyshev's bias in dihedral and generalized quaternion Galois groups

A Bailleul - Algebra & Number Theory, 2021 - msp.org
We study the inequities in the distribution of Frobenius elements in Galois extensions of the
rational numbers with Galois groups that are either dihedral D 2 n or (generalized) …

Chebyshev's bias for products of k primes

X Meng - Algebra & Number Theory, 2018 - msp.org
For any k≥ 1, we study the distribution of the difference between the number of integers n≤
x with ω (n)= k or Ω (n)= k in two different arithmetic progressions, where ω (n) is the number …

Orderings of weakly correlated random variables, and prime number races with many contestants

AJ Harper, Y Lamzouri - Probability Theory and Related Fields, 2018 - Springer
We investigate the race between prime numbers in many residue classes modulo q,
assuming the standard conjectures GRH and LI. Among our results we exhibit, for the first …

Extreme biases in prime number races with many contestants

K Ford, AJ Harper, Y Lamzouri - Mathematische Annalen, 2019 - Springer
We continue to investigate the race between prime numbers in many residue classes
modulo q, assuming the standard conjectures GRH and LI. We show that provided n/\log q …

An effective Linear Independence conjecture for the zeros of the Riemann zeta function and applications

Y Lamzouri - arXiv preprint arXiv:2311.04860, 2023 - arxiv.org
Using the same heuristic argument leading to the Lang-Waldschmidt Conjecture in the
theory of linear forms in logarithms, we formulate an effective version of the Linear …

The distribution of the variance of primes in arithmetic progressions

D Fiorilli - International Mathematics Research Notices, 2015 - academic.oup.com
Hooley conjectured that the variance V (x; q) of the distribution of primes up to x in the
arithmetic progressions modulo q is asymptotically, in some unspecified range of q≤ x. On …

Inequities in the Shanks–Renyi prime number race over function fields

Y Sedrati - Mathematika, 2022 - Wiley Online Library
Fix a prime p> 2 p>2 and a finite field F q F_q with q elements, where q is a power of p. Let m
be a monic polynomial in the polynomial ring F q T F_qT such that deg (m) \deg(m) is large …
