How statement and proof provenance work
The first chip identifies the source of the statement or construction; the second identifies the source of its local proof or verification.
- Literature-sourced: the exact statement appears in a cited source; only wording and notation differ.
- AI-adapted: a semantically identical restatement of literature-sourced material, modulo indexing, notation, and boundary cases adopted by the library.
- AI-generated: a genuinely novel statement formulated by AI, with no source for the claim itself.
These labels describe origin, not correctness: citations and verification chips remain separate evidence.
Zeta explicit formula zero free error balance
Statement
For and finite , the classical region and truncated explicit formula give Constants may be enlarged and the positive region constant decreased. The zero sum used in the proof is finite.
Facts & Assumptions
Given: The data and hypotheses of the statement.
The truncated von Mangoldt explicit formula: For , where is the distance to the nearest prime power other than possibly . The zero sum is finite and counts multiplicities.
Riemann zeta classical zero free region: There is an absolute such that has no zeros in . The pole at is not a zero.
Zeta reciprocal zero sum bound: For , the sum of over nontrivial zeros with is , with multiplicity. Adjoining any real nontrivial zeros preserves the estimate.
The half-weighted Chebyshev function: For , define This differs at prime powers from the right-continuous of def-chebyshev-psi-function.
Proof
For each zero in the finite sum , the region implies . Summing absolute values and using the reciprocal estimate, including any real zeros, bounds the entire zero sum by the first displayed error.
The supplied truncation error is at most because its minimum is at most one. The fixed constant and are bounded for . Finally , so replacing the half-weighted value gives the asserted error, including prime-power endpoints. The supplied formula holds for all x,T at these bounds; if a contour construction avoids ordinates, a non-ordinate in [T,T+1] has comparable bounds.

Dependency tree · two levels
17 results within two dependency steps of this one, each drawn at its shortest distance from it. An arrow runs from a result to what uses it, so the chart reads left to right and ends at this result, which carries a heavier outline. Every node is a link to that result.
