On some upper bounds for the zeta-function and the Dirichlet divisor problem (Q2833092)

Let NEWLINE\[NEWLINE \Delta(x):=\sum_{n\leq x}d(n) - x(\log x + 2\gamma - 1)\qquad(x\geq2) NEWLINE\]NEWLINE denote the error term in the Dirichlet divisor problem. Also let NEWLINE\[NEWLINE E(T):=\int_0^T|\zeta(\frac12+it)|^2 d t - T\Bigl(\log\bigl({T\over2\pi}\bigr) + 2\gamma - 1 \Bigr)\qquad(T\geq 2) NEWLINE\]NEWLINE denote the error term in the mean square formula for \(|\zeta(\frac12+it)|\). Here \(d(n)\) is the number of all positive divisors of \(n\), \(\zeta(s)\) is the Riemann zeta-function, and \( \gamma\) is Euler's constant. The author proves that, for \(k=1,2,3,4\), \(m=2,3\), NEWLINE\[NEWLINE \int_0^T\Delta^k(t)|\zeta(\frac12+it)|^{2m}d t \ll T^{A(k,2m)}\log^C T, NEWLINE\]NEWLINE where \(A(1,4)=41/32\), \(A(2,4)=25/16\), \(A(3,4)=59/32\), \(A(4,4)=17/8\), \(A(1,6)=49/32\), and \(A(2,6)=29/16\). This complements the results of the paper [the author and \textit{W. Zhai}, Indag. Math., New Ser. 26, No. 5, 842--866 (2015; Zbl 1332.11080)], where the cases \(1\leq k\leq8\), \(m=1\) were investigated.NEWLINENEWLINEThe ingredients in the proof are the asymptotic formula for the case \(k=8\), \(m=1\), results on upper bounds for the moments of \(|\zeta(\frac12+it)|\), and Hölder's inequality for integrals.
