Is the upper bound on $H_{1}$ a decreasing function of the proportion of critical zeros of Zeta?
This question stems from https://arxiv.org/abs/2411.19762 and the numerical observation that the best unconditional upper bound for $H_{1}:=\lim\inf_{n\to\infty}p_{n+1}-p_{n}$, namely $H_{1}^{\flat}=...

On a Duality between Riemann-weil explicit formula and Abel- Plana summation of trigonometric prime counting function:
Consider the analytic function $g(x)$
Now define

Possible regularisation for sum of function of primes
Consider the following sum of function of primes:
$$-\sum_{p}\ln\left( 1 - \frac{1}{(ep)^{1/2}} \right){\ln(p)}$$
Here $p$ runs through all primes and $e$ is Euler's constant.
We can see that the sum ...

Robin's inequality and the zeros of the Riemann zeta function
Robin showed that if $a\in(1/2, 1]$ is the supremum of the real parts of the zeros of the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$, then $f(x)=\Omega_{\pm} (x^{-b})$, where $b$ is some number on $(a-1/2, 1/2],...
