The Erdős conjecture for primitive sets

J Lichtman, C Pomerance - … of the American Mathematical Society, Series B, 2019 - ams.org
A subset of the integers larger than 1 is primitive if no member divides another. Erdős proved
in 1935 that the sum of $1/(a\log a) $ for $ a $ running over a primitive set $ A $ is universally …

Analytic Number Theory and Algebraic Asymptotic Analysis

J Elliott - arXiv preprint arXiv:2407.17820, 2024 - arxiv.org
This monograph elucidates and extends many theorems and conjectures in analytic number
theory and algebraic asymptotic analysis via the natural notions of degree and …

Primes in prime number races

J Lichtman, G Martin, C Pomerance - Proceedings of the American …, 2019 - ams.org
Rubinstein and Sarnak have shown, conditional on the Riemann hypothesis (RH) and the
linear independence hypothesis (LI) on the nonreal zeros of $\zeta (s) $, that the set of real …

Biased behavior of weighted Mertens sums

E Alkan - International Journal of Number Theory, 2020 - World Scientific
Using convexity properties of reciprocals of zeta functions, especially the reciprocal of the
Riemann zeta function, we show that certain weighted Mertens sums are biased in favor of …

Asymptotic expansions of the prime counting function

J Elliott - Journal of Number Theory, 2022 - Elsevier
We provide several asymptotic expansions of the prime counting function π (x) and related
functions. We define an asymptotic continued fraction expansion of a complex-valued …

On the average value of

DR Johnston - Canadian Mathematical Bulletin, 2023 - cambridge.org
We prove that the Riemann hypothesis is equivalent to the condition for all. Here, is the
prime-counting function and is the logarithmic integral. This makes explicit a claim of Pintz …

Mertens' Third Theorem for Number Fields: A New Proof, Cram\'er's Inequality, Oscillations, and Bias

S Hathi, ES Lee - arXiv preprint arXiv:2112.02166, 2021 - arxiv.org
The first result of our article is another proof of Mertens' third theorem in the number field
setting, which generalises a method of Hardy. The second result concerns the sign of the …

Some explicit results in analytic number theory

S Hathi - 2023 - unsworks.unsw.edu.au
In this thesis, we present a few explicit results in the field of analytic number theory. The first
set of results are in the area of multiplicative number theory which deals with the behaviour …

Sign changes in Mertens' first and second theorems

JPS Lay - arXiv preprint arXiv:1505.03589, 2015 - arxiv.org
We show that the functions $\sum_ {p\leq x}(\log p)/p-\log xE $ and $\sum_ {p\leq x} 1/p-
\log\log xB $ change sign infinitely often, and that under certain assumptions, they exhibit a …

[HTML][HTML] An annotated bibliography for comparative prime number theory

G Martin, PJS Yang, A Bahrini, P Bajpai, K Benli… - Expositiones …, 2025 - Elsevier
The goal of this annotated bibliography is to record every publication on the topic of
comparative prime number theory together with a summary of its results. We use a unified …
