Error in expression of incomplete zeta function?












0














Background & Question



I realised I could do a different manipulation from the one I did over here Strange method to obtain strange number theoretic identities? However after making some calculations I seems to be getting the wrong answer by perhaps an extra term.



I got the expression:



$$implies sum_{r=1}^n frac{mu(r)}{r} ln(r) sim frac{ln n}{n} -1 $$



But as $n to infty$ we know the $(frac{1}{zeta(k)})' to 0 $ when $k$ to $1$.



Is the correct answer below?



$$sum_{r=1}^n frac{mu(r)}{r} ln(r) sim frac{ln n}{n} $$



If so where did I go wrong in my proof? And what is the "normal" proof?



Proof



Let us write a relation of the Euler–Mascheroni constant for large $n$.
$$ 1+ frac{1}{2} + frac{1}{3} + frac{1}{4} + dots +frac{1}{n!} sim gamma + ln(n!)$$



Or, multiplying $1/2$ boths sides and let $n! to n!/2$



$$ 0 + frac{1}{2} + 0 + frac{1}{4} + dots +frac{1}{n!} sim frac{gamma}{2} + frac{1}{2}ln(frac{n!}{2})$$



Or, multiplying $1/3$ boths sides and let $n! to n!/3$



$$ 0 + 0 + frac{1}{3} + 0 + dots +frac{1}{n!} sim frac{gamma}{3} + frac{1}{3}ln(frac{n!}{3})$$



And so on $n$ times ... Now multiplying the $r$'th row with $a_r$ and adding vertically (whilst defining $b_r$):



$$ a_1+ frac{a_1}{2} + frac{a_1}{3} + frac{a_1}{4} + dots +frac{a_1}{n!} sim a_1 gamma + a_1 ln(n!)$$



$$ 0 + frac{a_2}{2} + 0 + frac{a_2}{4} + dots +frac{a_2}{n!} sim a_2 frac{gamma}{2} + frac{a_2}{2}ln(frac{n!}{2})$$



$$ 0 + 0 + frac{a_3}{3} + 0 + dots +frac{a_3}{n!} sim a_3 frac{gamma}{3} + frac{a_3}{3}ln(frac{n!}{3})$$



$$vdots $$
$+$
$-----------------------------------$



$$ underbrace{frac{b_1}{1}}_{a_1/1} + underbrace{frac{b_2}{2}}_{(a_1+ a_2)/2} + underbrace{frac{b_3}{3}}_{(a_1+ a_3)/3} + dots sim gamma sum_{r=1}^n frac{a_r}{r} + sum_{r=1}^n frac{a_r}{r} ln(frac{n!}{r}) $$



In the above we define:



$$b_r = sum_{r|l} a_l text{ }forall text{ } 1 leq r leq n$$
$$b_r = sum_{(r-n)|l} a_l text{ }forall text{ } n+1 leq r leq 2n$$
$$b_r = sum_{(r-2n)|l} a_l text{ }forall text{ } 2n+1 leq r leq 3n$$
$$ vdots $$
$$b_r = sum_{(r-(n-1)!)|l} a_l text{ }forall text{ } n(n-1)!- n +1 leq r leq n!$$



Writing the above properly now:



$$ sum_{r=1}^n frac{b_r}{r} + sum_{r=n+1}^{2n} frac{b_{r-n}}{r} + dots+ sum_{r=n!-n+1}^{n!} frac{b_{r-n!+n }}{r} sim gamma sum_{r=1}^n frac{a_r}{r} + sum_{r=1}^n frac{a_r}{r} ln(frac{n!}{r}) $$



Rearranging the L.H.S and R.H.S:



$$ sum_{r=1}^n sum_{k=0}^{(n-1)! -1 } b_r ( frac{1}{kn+ r}) sim (gamma+ ln n!) sum_{r=1}^n frac{a_r}{r} - sum_{r=1}^n frac{a_r}{r} ln(r) $$



Also note :
$$a_{l}=sum _{dmid l} mu left({frac {l}{d}}right)b_{d} implies frac{partial a_l}{ partial b_d} = mu left({frac {l}{d}}right) $$



where $mu$ is the mobius function. Let us now act $frac{partial }{partial b_d} $ on both sides where $d leq n$:



$$ sum_{k=0}^{(n-1)! -1 } ( frac{1}{kn+ d}) sim (gamma+ ln n!) sum_{r=1}^n frac{mu(frac{r}{d})}{r} - sum_{r=1}^n frac{mu(frac{r}{d})}{r} ln(r) $$



where $mu(lambda)= 0$ where $lambda$ is not an integer. Simplifying some of the terms:



$$ sum_{k=0}^{(n-1)! -1 } ( frac{1}{kn+ d}) sim frac{(gamma+ ln n!) }{n}- sum_{r=1}^n frac{mu(frac{r}{d})}{r} ln(r) $$



Let us take $d to 1$



$$ sum_{k=0}^{(n-1)! -1 } ( frac{1}{kn+ 1}) sim frac{(gamma+ ln n!) }{n}- sum_{r=1}^n frac{mu(r)}{r} ln(r) $$



Now using some approximations:



$$ 1 + frac{1}{n} sum_{k=1}^{(n-1)! -1 } frac{1}{k} sim frac{(gamma+ ln n!) }{n}- sum_{r=1}^n frac{mu(r)}{r} ln(r)$$



Using the first equation with a different $n$:



$$ 1 + frac{gamma + ln(n-1)!}{n} sim frac{(gamma+ ln n!) }{n}- sum_{r=1}^n frac{mu(r)}{r} ln(r)$$



$$implies sum_{r=1}^n frac{mu(r)}{r} ln(r) sim frac{ln n}{n} -1 $$
