Abstract
We look at the origins of Tauber theory, and apply it to prove the prime number theorem (PNT). Specifically, we prove a weak version of the Wiener-Ikehara Tauberian theorem due to Newman. Its application requires us to establish some properties of the Riemann zeta function. Most notably with regard to its meromorphic continuation, and the distribution of its zeros.
