Abstract: |
The aim of this note is the study of an integer matrix whose determinant is related to the Möbius function. We derive a number-theoretic inequality involving sums of a certain class of Möbius functions and obtain a sufficient condition for the Riemann hypothesis depending on an integer triangular matrix. We also provide an alternative proof of Redheffer's theorem based upon a LU decomposition of the Redheffer's matrix.;
