Abstract
The sum of the reciprocals of all prime numbers diverges but the divergence is very slow. We propose effective lower and upper bounds for partial sums under the Riemann hypothesis. We give an explicit error term for all Mertens’ theorems.
期刊介绍:
WSEAS Transactions on Mathematics publishes original research papers relating to applied and theoretical mathematics. We aim to bring important work to a wide international audience and therefore only publish papers of exceptional scientific value that advance our understanding of these particular areas. The research presented must transcend the limits of case studies, while both experimental and theoretical studies are accepted. It is a multi-disciplinary journal and therefore its content mirrors the diverse interests and approaches of scholars involved with linear algebra, numerical analysis, differential equations, statistics and related areas. We also welcome scholarly contributions from officials with government agencies, international agencies, and non-governmental organizations.
