A logarithmic improvement in the Bombieri-Vinogradov theorem

Published 18 May 2017 in math.NT | (1705.06660v3)

Abstract: In this paper we improve the best known to date result of Dress-Iwaniec-Tenenbaum, getting (log x)² instead of (log x)^5/2. We use a weighted form of Vaughan's identity, allowing a smooth truncation inside the procedure, and an estimate due to Barban-Vehov and Graham related to Selberg's sieve. We give effective and non-effective versions of the result.
