Abstract

Cohen-Ramanujan sum, denoted by crs(n)c_r^s(n), is an exponential sum similar to the Ramanujan sum cr(n):=h=1(h,r)=1re2πinhrc_r(n):=\sum\limits_{\substack{h=1\\{(h,r)=1}}}^{r}e^{\frac{2\pi i n h}{r}}. An arithmetical function ff is said to admit a Cohen-Ramanujan expansion f(n):=rf^(r)crs(n) f(n):=\sum\limits_{r}\widehat{f}(r)c_r^s(n) if the series on the right hand side converges for suitable complex numbers f^(r)\widehat{f}(r). Given two arithmetical functions ff and gg with absolutely convergent Cohen-Ramanujan expansions, we derive an asymptotic formula for the sum nNf(n)g(n+h)\sum\limits_{\substack{n\leq N}}f(n)g(n+h) where hh is a fixed non negative integer. We also provide Cohen-Ramanujan expansions for certain functions to illustrate some of the results we prove consequently.
