As essential condition for the validy of Robin's Theorem as a precondition for the proof of the Riemann hypothesis, we show that the minimum of the function $F={\rm e}^γ\,\ln(\ln\,n)-σ(n)/n$ is found to be positive. Therefore, $F>0$ holds for any $n>5040$.
Using geometric considerations, we provide a clear derivation of the integral representation for the error function, known as the Craig formula. We calculate the corresponding power series expansion and prove the convergence. The same geometric means finally help to systematically derive handy formulas that approximate the inverse error function. Our approach can be used for applications in e.g.\ high-speed Monte Carlo simulations where this function is used extensively.
The normal or Gaussian distribution plays a prominent role in almost all fields of science. However, it is well known that the Gauss (or Euler--Poisson) integral over a finite boundary, as it is necessary for instance for the error function or the cumulative distribution of the normal distribution, cannot be expressed by analytic functions. This is proven by the Risch algorithm. Still, there are proposals for approximate solutions. In this paper, we give a new solution in terms of normal distributions by applying a geometric procedure iteratively to the problem.
The noise-flatness-induced hypersensitive transport of overdamped Brownian particles in a tilted ratchet system driven by multiplicative nonequilibrium three-level Markovian noise and additive white noise is considered. At low temperatures the enhancement of current is very sensitive to the applied small static tilting force. It is established that the enhancement of mobility depends non-monotonically on the parameters (flatness, correlation time) of multiplicative noise. The optimal values of noise parameters maximizing the mobility are found.
Transport of Brownian particles on a simple sawtooth potential subjected to both unbiased thermal and nonequilibrium symmetric three-level Markovian noise is considered. The new effects of three and four current reversals as a function of temperature are established in such correlation ratchets. The parameter space coordinates of the fixed points associated with these current reversals and the necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of the novel current reversals are found.
