On the sum of the first n prime numbers
In this paper we establish a general asymptotic formula for the sum of the
first n prime numbers, which leads to a generalization of the most accurate
asymptotic formula given by Massias and Robin in 1996.Comment: 5 page
Compact Operators via the Berezin Transform
In this paper we prove that if S equals a finite sum of finite products of
Toeplitz operators on the Bergman space of the unit disk, then S is compact if
and only if the Berezin transform of S equals 0 on the boundary of the disk.
This result is new even when S equals a single Toeplitz operator. Our main
result can be used to prove, via a unified approach, several previously known
results about compact Toeplitz operators, compact Hankel operators, and
appropriate products of these operators.Comment: 15 pages. To appear in Indiana University Mathematics Journal. For
