Mertens's theorem for splitting primes and more

preprint2013arXivOpen access

Abstract

Myriad articles are devoted to Mertens's theorem. In yet another, we merely wish to draw attention to a proof by Hardy, which uses a Tauberian theorem of Landau that "leads to the conclusion in a direct and elegant manner". Hardy's proof is also quite adaptable, and it is readily combined with well-known results from prime number theory. We demonstrate this by proving a version of the theorem for primes in arithmetic progressions with uniformity in the modulus, as well as a non-abelian analogue of this.
