The divisor function in arithmetic progressions to smooth moduli

Abstract

By using the qq-analogue of van der Corput's method we study the divisor function in an arithmetic progression to modulus qq. We show that the expected asymptotic formula holds for a larger range of qq than was previously known, provided that qq has a certain factorisation.
