Extract

Let r(n) be the number of representations of n as a sum of two squares, d(n) the number of divisors of n, and

where γ is Euler's constant. Then P(x) is the error term in the problem of the lattice points of the circle, and Δ(x) the error term in Dirichlet's divisor problem, or the problem of the lattice points of the rectangular hyperbola.
