A divergent Vasyunin correction

Abstract: V. I. Vasyunin has introduced special sequences of step functions related to the strong Nyman-Beurling criterion that converge pointwise to 1 in

[1, i n f t y)

. We show here that the first and simplest such sequence considered by Vasyunin diverges in

L_{1} ((1, i n f t y), x^{- 2} d x)

, which of course precludes the

L_{2} ((1, i n f t y), x^{- 2} d x)

-convergence needed for the Riemann hypothesis. Whether all sequences considered by this author also diverge remains an interesting open question.
