Serial expansion of inverse function of $\frac{x}{\ln x}$

104 Views Asked by At

Since $G(x)=\frac{x}{\ln x}$ is asymptotical equivalent with the prime counting function $\pi(x)$, the inverse $G^{-1}(n)$ must be asymptotical equivalent with the prime number function $p_n$.

$x=G^{-1}(n)$ can be calculated for $n\geq 3$ by $x=\underset{k\to\infty}{\lim}x_k$, where $x_{k+1}=n\cdot\ln x_k$ where $x_0=3$, but I would like to have the serial expansion anyway.


In fact, $\; n\ln n<p_n<G^{-1}(n)\;$ and the mean $f(n)=\frac{n\ln n+G^{-1}(n)}{2}$ follows $p_n$ rather well.
Down $p_n$ is blue and $f(n)$ is red: enter image description here

You can use the Lagrange inversion formula. But for any branch of the inverse the radius of convergence of the series will be finite, unusable for any asymptotical reasoning.
