Abstract

Let \ba=(a1,a2,,ak)\ba=(a_1,a_2,\ldots,a_k), where aj (j=1,,k)a_j \ (j=1,\ldots,k) are positive integers such that a1a2aka_1 \leq a_2 \leq \cdots \leq a_k. Let d(\ba;n)=n1a1nkak=n1d(\ba;n)=\sum_{n_1^{a_1}\cdots n_k^{a_k}=n}1 and Δ(\ba;x)\Delta(\ba;x) be the error term of the summatory function of d(\ba;n)d(\ba;n). In this paper we show an asymptotic formula of the mean square of Δ(\ba;x)\Delta(\ba;x) under a certain condition. Furthermore, in the cases k=2k=2 and 3, we give unconditional asymptotic formulas for these mean squares.
