On the error term in a Parseval type formula in the theory of Ramanujan expansions

Number Theory 2016-08-05 v1

Abstract

Given two arithmetical functions f,gf,g we derive, under suitable conditions, asymptotic formulas with error term, for the convolution sums nNf(n)g(n+h)\sum_{n \le N} f(n) g(n+h), building on an earlier work of Gadiyar, Murty and Padma. A key role in our method is played by the theory of Ramanujan expansions for arithmetical functions.
