Proof of the the Riemann hypothesis from the density and Lindelof hypotheses via a power sum method

arXiv:0810.2102

Abstract

The Riemann hypothesis is equivalent to the -form of the prime number theorem as $\varpi(x) =O(x\sp{1/2} \log\sp{2} x)$, where $\varpi(x) =\sum\sb{n\le x}\ \bigl(Λ(n) -1\big)$ with the sum running through the set of all natural integers. Let ${\mathsf Z}(s) = -\tfrac{ζ\sp{\prime}(s)}{ζ(s)} -ζ(s)$. We use the classical integral formula for the Heaviside function in the form of ${\mathsf H}(x) =\int\sb{m -i\infty} \sp{m +i\infty} \tfrac{x\sp{s}}{s} \dd s$ where , and is 0 when , when , and 1 when . However, we diverge from the literature by applying Cauchy's residue theorem to the function ${\mathsf Z}(s) \cdot \tfrac{x\sp{s}} {s}$, rather than $-\tfrac{ζ\sp{\prime}(s)} {ζ(s)} \cdot \tfrac{x\sp{s}}{s}$, so that we may utilize the formula for , under certain conditions. Starting with the estimate on from the trivial zero-free region of , we use induction to reduce the size of the exponent in $\varpi(x) =O(x\spθ \log\sp{2} x)$, while we also use induction on when is fixed. We prove that the Riemann hypothesis is valid under the assumptions of the explicit strong density hypothesis and the Lindelöf hypothesis recently proven, via a result of the implication on the zero free regions from the remainder terms of the prime number theorem by the power sum method of Turán.
