Riemann hypothesis from the Dedekind psi function

Abstract

7 pages, new proposition 3, many correctionsLet P\mathcal{P} be the set of all primes and ψ(n)=nnP,pn(1+1/p)\psi(n)=n\prod_{n\in \mathcal{P},p|n}(1+1/p) be the Dedekind psi function. We show that the Riemann hypothesis is satisfied if and only if f(n)=ψ(n)/neγloglognn0=30f(n)=\psi(n)/n-e^{\gamma} \log \log n n_0=30 (D), where γ0.577\gamma \approx 0.577 is Euler's constant. This inequality is equivalent to Robin's inequality that is recovered from (D) by replacing ψ(n)\psi(n) with the sum of divisor function σ(n)ψ(n)\sigma(n)\ge \psi(n) and the lower bound by n0=5040n_0=5040. For a square free number, both arithmetical functions σ\sigma and ψ\psi are the same. We also prove that any exception to (D) may only occur at a positive integer nn satisfying ψ(m)/m<ψ(n)/n\psi(m)/m<\psi(n)/n, for any $
