Abstract:
We give a direct interpretation of the validity of the Riemann hypothesis for all zeros with $\Im (\rho )\in (0,T]$ in terms of the prime-counting function $\pi (x)$ by proving that Schoenfeld’s explicit estimates for $\pi (x)$ and the Chebyshov functions hold as long as $4.92\sqrt {x/\log (x)} \leq T$.
We also improve some of the existing bounds of Chebyshov type for the function $\psi (x)$.
