Summary

Description
English: Graph of a series involving the von Mangoldt function. More precisely, this is a graph of the function

considered by Hardy and Littlewood in 1916. They demonstrated that

Curiously, they also show that this function is oscillatory as well, with diverging oscillations. In particular, there exists a value such that

and
infinitely often. This graph demonstrates that the second condition is not immediately apparent, numerically. The graph of this function appears to be remarkably linear in the region and visually appears to have an intercept with the y-axis at about -0.337877. However, on closer examination, one discovers oscillations of increasing magnitude as the function approaches . For the oscillations shown in this graph, a summation including more than 2 billion terms of the series was required.
