Explicit lower bounds for linear forms in two logarithms

Nicolas Gouillon (2006)

Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux

Similarity:

We give an explicit lower bound for linear forms in two logarithms. For this we specialize the so-called Schneider method with multiplicity described in []. We substantially improve the numerical constants involved in existing statements for linear forms in two logarithms, obtained from Baker’s method or Schneider’s method with multiplicity. Our constant is around 5 . 10 4 instead of 10 8 .

On Robin’s criterion for the Riemann hypothesis

YoungJu Choie, Nicolas Lichiardopol, Pieter Moree, Patrick Solé (2007)

Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux

Similarity:

Robin’s criterion states that the Riemann Hypothesis (RH) is true if and only if Robin’s inequality σ ( n ) : = ∑ d | n d < e γ n log log n is satisfied for n ≥ 5041 , where γ denotes the Euler(-Mascheroni) constant. We show by elementary methods that if n ≥ 37 does not satisfy Robin’s criterion it must be even and is neither squarefree nor squarefull. Using a bound of Rosser and Schoenfeld we show, moreover, that n must be divisible by a fifth power > 1 . As consequence we obtain that RH holds true iff every natural number divisible by...
