How can I convert Meissel's/Lehmer's formula for prime counting to get sum of primes
If you consult Lehmer's paper, the terms in question arise from $$P_2(x, a) = \sum_{p_a < p_i \le \frac x{p_i}} \sum_{p_i \le p_j \le \frac x{p_i}} 1 = \sum_{p_a < p_i \le b} \left\{ \pi\left(\frac x{ …

Did André Bloch or any other mathematician receive the Becquerel Prize?
I was looking for the same claim about another mathematician (namely Vazgain Avanissian) that I came to this question. Following the clues left by the previous answer and the comments, I found a menti …

To what extent can a von Neumann algebra be determined by its projection lattice structure?
Related to Which complete orthomodular lattices arise from von Neumann algebras? but I post only one answer here.
A improved version of the question is: extend von Neumann equivalence for finite facto …

What is the status of Jordan's theorem in constructive mathematics in the language of locales?
Let me first clarify some confusion in the comments to the original question. To be clear : I'm not at all saying the persons making them were confused, as far as I can tell all the comments were corr …

Can a smooth domain in a sphere be a homology ball without being contractible?
Yes, such domain exists. Let $P$ be Poincare homology 3-sphere. And $X= P\times I - D^3\times I$, then $X$ can be smoothly embedded in $S^4$(mostly the double of $X$ is $S^4$) . Let $\Omega$ be a smal …

First hitting time for non-homogeneous diffusion martingale
For $h:=\Delta t>0$, you had
$$P(\tau>t)-P(\tau>t+h)=\int_{(0,\infty)}
P(M\le-x|X_t=x)\,P(X_t\in dx),$$
where
$$M:=\inf_{t\le u\le t+h}J_u,\quad J_u:=\int_t^u a(s,X_s)\,dW_s.$$
By Doob's martingale in …

A comparison of diffusions
Consider two diffusions given by
$$X_j(t)=\int_0^t a_j(s,X_j(s))\,dW_s$$
for $j=1,2$ and $t\ge 0$, where $W_\cdot$ is a standard Wiener process/Brownian motion and the $a_j$'s are smooth enough functi …

Normal numbers, Liouville function, and the Riemann Hypothesis
This is a question about whether or not some number $\lambda^*$ is normal in base 2. More specifically, I am wondering if $\lambda^*$ is not normal. Proving it is normal would be next to impossible, a …

Which great mathematicians were also historians of mathematics?
Many famous number-theorists have written about the history of the theory of numbers. One of the most prominent examples is that of André Weil (1906-1998): not only did he author epoch-making papers i …

Why is the Gaussian so pervasive in mathematics?
Edit 2/15/2022{
The utility of the Gaussian $e^{\frac{t^2}{2}}$--its numerous properties--derives from the nature of the coefficients of its Taylor series expansion, naturally. The coefficients, which …

To which value does this infinite sum of power series coefficients converge?
Context:
In this and this paper, J. Arias de Reyna shows that the RH follows when:
$$1.2663935... \le \sum_{n=1}^\infty A_n^2 \le 1.2723669...$$
where $A_n$ is the coefficient in the following power …
