This short note provides a sharper upper bound of a well known inequality for the sum of divisors function. This is a problem in pure mathematics related to the distribution of prime numbers. Furthermore, the technique is completely…

Let $N$ be any fixed positive integer and define \begin{align*} S_N(x)=\sum_{m, n \leq x}d(n^2+Nm^2), \end{align*} where $d(n)$ is the divisor function. We evaluate asymptotically $S_N(x)$ for several $N$, extending earlier works of Gafurov…

We prove an upper bound for the exponential sum associated to a localized $k-$divisor function, i.e., the counting function of the number of ways to write a positive integer $n$ as a product of $k\ge 2$ positive integers, each of them…

Let $\tau_k(n)$ be the $k$-th divisor function. In this paper, we derive an asymptotic formula for the sum $$ \sum_{1\leq n_1,n_2, \dots, n_{\ell}\leq X^{\frac{1}{r}} \atop 1\leq n_{\ell+1}\le X^{\frac{1}{s}}}\tau_k(n_1^r+n_2^r+\dots…

Thanks to Littlewood (1922) and Ingham (1928), we know the first two terms of the asymptotic formula for the square mean integral value of the Riemann zeta function $\zeta$ on the critical line. Later, Atkinson (1939) presented this formula…

Let $\zeta(s)$ and $Z(t)$ be the Riemann zeta function and Hardy's function respectively. We show asymptotic formulas for $\int_0^T Z(t)\zeta(1/2+it)dt$ and $\int_0^T Z^2(t) \zeta(1/2+it)dt$. Furthermore we derive an upper bound for…

Let $\Delta(x)$ and $E(x)$ be error terms of the sum of divisor function and the mean square of the Riemann zeta function, respectively. In this paper their fourth power moments for short intervals of Jutila's type are considered. We get an…

We study the distribution functions of several classical error terms in analytic number theory, focusing on the remainder term in the Dirichlet divisor problem $\Delta(x)$. We first bound the discrepancy between the distribution function of…

Let $d(n)$ be the divisor function. In 1916, S. Ramanujan stated but without proof that $$\sum_{n\leq x}d^2(n)=xP(\log x)+E(x), $$ where $P(y)$ is a cubic polynomial in $y$ and $$ E(x)=O(x^{{3\over 5}+\epsilon}), $$ where $\epsilon$ is a…

First part of this paper was published in CEJM (2)(4) (2004), 1-15. It is proved now that $$ \int_0^T|E^*(t)|^5{\rm d}t \ll_\epsilon T^{2+\epsilon}. $$ Here $$ E^*(t) = E(t) - 2\pi\Delta^*(t/2\pi), \Delta^*(x) = - \Delta(x) +2\Delta(2x) -…

We extend the Matom\"{a}ki-Radziwi\l\l{} theorem to a large collection of unbounded multiplicative functions that are uniformly bounded, but not necessarily bounded by 1, on the primes. Our result allows us to estimate averages of such a…

Let $d^{(k)}(n)$ be the $k$-free divisor function for integer $k\ge2$. Let $a$ be a nonzero integer. In this paper, we establish an asymptotic formula \begin{equation*} \sum_{p\leq x} d^{(k)}(p-a) =b_k \cdot x+O\left(\frac{x}{\log x}\right)…

Let $\gcd(j,k)$ be the greatest common divisor of the integers $j$ and $k$. In this paper, we give several interesting asymptotic formulas for weighted averages of the $\gcd$-sum function $f(\gcd(j,k)) $ and the function $\sum_{d|k,…

Let $\gcd(m,n)$ denote the greatest common divisor of the positive integers $m$ and $n$, and let $\mu$ represent the M\" obius function. For any real number $x>5$, we define the summatory function of the M\" obius function involving the…

We obtain an asymptotic formula for the second discrete moment of the Riemann zeta function over the arithmetic progression $\frac{1}{2} + in$. It shows that the first main term is equal to that of the continuous mean value.

An overview of the classical Rankin-Selberg problem involving the asymptotic formula for sums of coefficients of holomorphic cusp forms is given. We also study the function $\Delta(x;\xi) (0\le\xi\le1)$, the error term in the Rankin-Selberg…

In order to well understand the behaviour of the Riemann zeta function inside the critical strip, we show; among other things, the Fourier expansion of the $\zeta^k(s)$ ($k \in \mathbb{N}$) in the half-plane $\Re s > 1/2$ and we deduce a…

We deeply appreciate the papers of Ivi\'c on the links between the $2k-$th moments of the Riemann zeta function and, say, $d_k$, the $k-$divisor function. More specifically, both the one bounding the $2k-$th moment with a simple average of…
