Brett Nortj Posted August 3, 2018 Posted August 3, 2018 This would be [infinity] * [2n] = [3] * [2] = [6] * [x] Then, [5] * [2] = [10] * [x] Then, [7] * [2] = [14] * [x] So, the answer is double prime times by [x]. Or, [N] * [2] *[X].

Brett Nortj Posted August 3, 2018 Author Posted August 3, 2018 Just now, dimreepr said: OK, I'll bite what is x? [X] is just an expression for the symbols combined, a new symbol - no rule says we cannot add or use our own symbols.

The "natural logarithm" function \( \ln, \) or nowadays mostly written \( \log,\) can be conveniently defined by \[ \ln(x) := \int_1^x \frac{1}{t} dt \] for any positive real number \(x.\) Then \( \ln(1) = 0\) is obvious by definition, and using standard substitution of variables in the Riemann integral, you can easily deduce basic properties, such as \( \ln(ab) = \ln(a) + \ln(b) \) for all \( a,b > 0, \) as well as \( \ln(a^b) = b \ln(a), \) for all \(a > 0\) and all \(b.\) To formulate the Riemann Hypothesis in terms of logarithms it also helps to know about primes.

Okay, seems to be right to me.
taeto Posted August 4, 2018 Posted August 4, 2018 (edited) Okay then: primes. Formally a natural number \(p\) is called "prime" if \(p > 1\) and it is true that if you take any integer numbers \(a\) and \(b,\) and \(p\) divides the product \(ab\), then \(p\) divides \(a\) or \(b.\) The first primes are \(2,3,5,7,11,13,\) and then there are some more larger ones as well. The "primorial" \(p\#\) of a prime \(p\) is the product \(2\times 3 \times 5 \times 7 \times 11 \times \cdots \times p\) of all the primes \(2,3,5,7,11,...,p.\) The "Euler totient function" \(\varphi\) is a more complicated function, but all you have to worry about is its value at primorial \(p\#,\) which is simply the product \( \varphi(p\#) = 1 \times 2 \times 4 \times 6 \times 10 \times \cdots \times (p-1)\) of all numbers less by 1 than a prime up to \(p.\) This is enough that you have to know, before you can meaningfully consider the Riemann Hypothesis. The Riemann Hypothesis is logically equivalent to the following statement: \[ \frac{p\#}{\varphi(p\#) \ln \ln p\#} > e^\gamma, \] for all primes \(p,\) where \(\gamma\) is known as the Euler-Mascheroni constant, with \[ \gamma := \int_1^\infty (\frac{1}{\lfloor x \rfloor} - \frac{1}{x}) dx \approx 0.577\ldots, \] where the value of the floor function \( \lfloor x \rfloor \) is the largest integer that is not greater than \(x.\) Reference: J.

The first primes are 2,3,5,7,11,13, and then there are some more larger ones as well. The "primorial" p# of a prime p is the product 2×3×5×7×11×⋯×p of all the primes 2,3,5,7,11,...,p. The "Euler totient function" φ is a more complicated function, but all you have to worry about is its value at primorial p#, which is simply the product φ(p#)=1×2×4×6×10×⋯×(p−1) of all numbers less by 1 than a prime up to p. This is enough that you have to know, before you can meaningfully consider the Riemann Hypothesis. The Riemann Hypothesis is logically equivalent to the following statement:p#φ(p#)lnlnp#>eγ, for all primes p, where γ is known as the Euler-Mascheroni constant, with γ:=∫∞1(1⌊x⌋−1x)dx≈0.577…, where the value of the floor function ⌊x⌋ is the largest integer that is not greater than x.
