Zeros of the semiprimes
Let $P$ be the prime zeta function
$$
P (s) = \sum_{p\, \in\text{ primes}} \frac 1 {p^s} = \frac {1} {2^s} + \frac {1} {3^s} + \frac 1 {5^s} + \frac 1 {7^s} + \frac 1 {11^s} + \cdots
$$
and define the ...

Does there exist an $L$-function for any subset of $\mathbb{N}$?
Consider the following prime sum:
\begin{aligned}
\sum _{p}{\frac {\cos(x\log p)}{p^{1/2}}}
\end{aligned}
whose spikes appear at the Riemann $\zeta$ zeros as shown here.
Taking these detected spikes (...

Exact formula for partial sums of Liouville function $L(n)$ (OEIS sequence A002819)
I am wondering if it is possible to get a useful exact formula, or at least some useful asymptotics, for the partial sums of the Liouville function (OEIS sequence A002819)
$$L(n)=\sum_{k=1}^n \lambda(...

Strange convergence of Euler's series for $\zeta(2)$
Using Maple to compare $\pi^2$ and the partial sums of $6\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\frac{1}{n^2}$ I have noticed something that appears strange.
For instance, let $S_{k}=6\sum_{n=0}^{k}\frac{1}{n^2}$ be ...

Similar problems for the Dedekind psi function than those that are in the literature for the Euler's totient function: reference request or proposals
I know the linked articles from Wikipedia for the Euler's totient function and the Dedekind psi function. I know that are in the literature famous, interesting and difficult problems involving the ...

Lines in image; are they significant to prime numbers if so how?
Amateur math question. I was playing around generating some 2D images, and wondered what it would look like if placed $P_{i}$ dots on a circle with diameter of $i$ for increasing values of $i$, where $...
