On the mean square of the zeta-function and the divisor problem
Abstract
Description
Let $Δ(x)$ denote the error term in the Dirichlet divisor problem, and $E(T)$ the error term in the asymptotic formula for the mean square of $|ζ(1/2+it)|$. If $E^*(t) = E(t) - 2πΔ^*(t/2π)$ with $Δ^*(x) = -Δ(x) + 2Δ(2x) - {1\over2}Δ(4x)$, then we obtain the asymptotic formula $$ \int_0^T (E^*(t))^2 {\rm d} t = T^{4/3}P_3(\log T) + O_ε(T^{7/6+ε}), $$ where $P_3$ is a polynomial of degree three in $\log T$ with positive leading coefficient. The exponent 7/6 in the error term is the limit of the method.
