# A mixture with ingredients of two equivalences with Riemann Hypothesis

Let $f(x)=x\cdot(\log x)^x$ for $x\geq 2$, then integrating $\log f(x)=\int_2^x f'(t)/f(t)dt$, it is easy to prove the first statement of following, and directly if we put $x=e^H_n$ and add $H_n$ the second ($e>2$)

Lemma. For $x\geq 2$, $$x\log \log x=2\log\log 2 +Li(x)+\int_2^x\log\log tdt$$ where $Li(x)$ is the logarithmic integral $\int_2^xdt/\log t$. And thus $$H_n+e^{H_n}\log (H_n)=H_n+2\log\log 2+Li(e^{H_n})+\int_2^{e^{H_n}}\log\log tdt$$ where $H_n$ is the nth harmonic number $1+1/2+\cdots +1/n$.

Now my question is

Question. Can you continue previous computations to prove a reasonable improve of $$\sigma(n)\leq \text{something}\leq \text{RHS of second statement in previous lemma},$$ where $\sigma(n)$ denote the sum of the positive divisors of $n$, $\sum_{d|n}d$.

Thanks is advance, my only goal is edit the best possible post in this Math Stack Exchange, I apologize to bring this question here because I believe that this community can made contributions. Sorry by my english.

Appendix:

My question as is built, tell us how take an ingredient from an equivalence of Riemann Hypothesis, $\sigma(n)$, and other ingredient, $Li(x)$, from another equivalence of RH and put these together, well, in a not understandable way. Topics as certain type of abundant numbers, Robin approach to RH, the order of growth of $\sigma(n)$ or $H_n$, and the relationship between $Li(x)$ and Riemann Hypothesis can find in the literature. In [4] (I have not an open source to provide it) we can read an integral equal to $\sigma(n)$.

Simply you can read the first paragraph of the section Initial Ideas, page 343 of [2] (given as free paper), and Lagarias equivalence in the last paragraph before the section Other Zeta and L-functions in page 347 to know two equivalences with Riemann Hypothesis.

Thus (via [3]) Riemann Hypothesis holds if and only if $$\sigma(n)\leq H_n+2\log\log 2+Li(e^{H_n})+\int_2^{e^{H_n}}\log\log t dt.$$

• I've made the change in the misprint and deleted the first comment, to avoid confusion, it is better . Thanks. – user243301 Sep 10 '15 at 6:45

$\int \limits_{2}^{x} \ln \ln t dt = t \ln \ln t-Li(t)|_{2}^{x} = x \ln \ln x-2 \ln \ln 2+Li(2)-Li(x)$
So $\int \limits_{2}^{x} \ln \ln t dt+ 2 \ln \ln 2+Li(x)+\ln x = \ln x+ Li(2)+x \ln \ln x$, put $x=e^{H_n}$ to get $H_n + Li(2) +e^{H_n} \ln H_n$
So we arrive at $Li(2) + H_n +e^{H_n} \ln H_n \geq \sigma(n)$ without the $Li(2) \approx 1.04516$ its the famous C.Lagarias inequality which is true for all $n\geq 1$ iff the R.H. is true.
