Extract

In this paper we shall consider the well known mean value theorem,

where γ is Euler's constant. The error term E(T) has been estimated by various writers; in particular the bounds E(T) = o(T log T), E(T) ≪ T1/2 log T, E(T) ≪ T5/12(log T)2 and

where ε is any positive quantity, have been given by Hardy and Littlewood [7], Ingham [8], Titchmarsh [10], and Balasubramanian [2], respectively.
