A variant of the prime number theorem


Abstract in English

Let $Lambda(n)$ be the von Mangoldt function, and let $[t]$ be the integral part of real number $t$. In this note, we prove that for any $varepsilon>0$ the asymptotic formula $$ sum_{nle x} LambdaBig(Big[frac{x}{n}Big]Big) = xsum_{dge 1} frac{Lambda(d)}{d(d+1)} + O_{varepsilon}big(x^{9/19+varepsilon}big) qquad (xtoinfty)$$ holds. This improves a recent result of Bordell`es, which requires $frac{97}{203}$ in place of $frac{9}{19}$.
