In $L_2(0,\\infty)$ consider the subspace $\\B$ generated by $\\{\\rho_a|a\\geq1\\}$ where $\\rho_a(x):=\\rho(\\frac{1}{ax})$. By the Nyman-Beurling criterion the Riemann hypothesis is equivalent to the statement $\\chi\\in\\bar{\\B}$. For some time it has been conjectured, and proved in the first version of this paper, posted in arXiv:math.NT/0202141 v2, that the Riemann hypothesis is equivalent to the stronger statement that $\\chi\\in\\bar{\\Bnat}$ where $\\Bnat$ is the much smaller subspace generated by $\\{\\rho_a|a\\in\\Nat\\}$. This second version differs from the first in showing that under the Riemann hypothesis for some constant $c>0$ the distance between $\\chi$ and $-\\sum_{a=1}^n\\mu(a)e^{-c\\frac{\\log a}{\\log\\log n}}\\rho_a$ is of order $(\\log\\log n)^{-1/3}$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2002-05-01T03:16:51.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "riemann hypothesis", "nyman-beurling criterion", "second version differs", "strengthening", "first version" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 9, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2002math......5003B" } } }
