for ; its Euler product is .
For , and , apply the truncated Perron formula with Von Mangoldt function coefficients at both endpoints on the same vertical line. The difference kernel is , of modulus . The usual near-integer error bound contributes . The logarithmic derivative on this line is finite because of the Euler product.
Under Riemann hypothesis, integrate a smoothed explicit formula from to two, taking . The prime contribution is , while the local zero count bounds the zero contribution by . Both are for fixed , yielding the displayed bound; other fixed positive shifts follow by standard strip bounds and the Euler product.
The Euler product and Mertens second theorem give . The log-weighted convolution bound for three to the prime omega, with the Chebyshev estimate , then gives . A direct bound for the full range follows from , where :

For and , positivity of
term by term in the Euler product gives
Comparing this with the pole of at one and the local poles of at zeros proves the classical zero-free region.
Truncated Euler-product lower bound Created 2026-10-06 Updated 2026-10-07
For a finite set of primes choose , put , and let . Give each squarefree integer on these primes probability . Inclusion of each prime is represented by a Bernoulli random variable with parameter ; these are independent random variables, so . If this is at most with , the Markov inequality gives
This turns a full Euler product into a lower bound for the truncated normalizing sum of a Selberg sieve.
Suppose a function has least period and distinct values on distinct period cosets. Two independent Fourier samples have the form with uniform . The displayed candidate is , so exact recovery occurs when no prime divisor of divides both residues. The Chinese remainder theorem gives probability , using the Euler product. Unlike a single-sample coprimality probability, this bound is uniformly greater than one half. A candidate-period test makes successful recovery heralded when such a test is available.
The logarithm of the Euler product and give . At , upper bounds and imply the lower bound . The Cauchy estimate for derivatives gives nearby, allowing a sufficiently small leftward displacement of order . This elementary region is weaker than the classical logarithmic region but gives an explicit reciprocal bound by simple estimates.
