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 kN, we study two types of twisted sums:

1. nxΛk(n)niy, where Λk(n)=ΛΛk copies
2. nxΛk(n)niy, 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.
