Abstract:
Based on work previously done by Gonek, Graham, and Lee, we show that the Riemann Hypothesis (RH) can be reformulated in terms of certain asymptotic estimates for twisted sums with k-fold convolution of von Mangoldt function and the generalized von Mangoldt function. For each k∈N, we study two types of twisted sums:
1. ∑n≤xΛk(n)n−iy, where Λk(n)=Λ⋆⋯Λ⏟k copies
2. ∑n≤xΛk(n)n−iy, where Λk(n):=∑d|nμ(d)(lognd)k.
Where Λ is the von Mangoldt function and μ is the Möbius function, and establish similar connections with RH.
