On a sum of the error term of the Dirichlet divisor function over primes

Number Theory 2024-10-02 v1

Abstract

Let d(n)d(n) be the Dirichlet divisor function and Δ(x)\Delta(x) denote the error term of the sum nxd(n)\sum_{n\leqslant x}d(n) for a large real variable xx. In this paper we focus on the sum pxΔ2(p)\sum_{p\leqslant x}\Delta^2(p), where pp runs over primes. We prove that there exists an asymptotic formula.
