Easily computable lower and upper bounds are found for the sum of Catalan numbers. The lower bound is proven to be tighter than the upper bound, which previously was declared to be only an asymptotic. The average of these bounds is proven…

For a rational function f we consider the norm of the derivative with respect to the spherical metric and denote by K(f) the supremum of this norm. We give estimates of this quantity K(f) both for an individual function and for sequences of…

We consider a wide class of summatory functions F{f;N,p^m}=\sum_{k\leq N}f(p^m k), m\in \mathbb Z_+\cup {0}, associated with the multiplicative arithmetic functions f of a scaled variable k\in \mathbb Z_+, where p is a prime number.…

We determine a lower gap property for the growth of an unbounded \(\mathbb{Z}\)-valued \(k\)-regular sequence. In particular, if \(f:\mathbb{N}\to\mathbb{Z}\) is an unbounded \(k\)-regular sequence, we show that there is a constant \(c>0\)…

The main purpose of present paper is to determine some lower bounds for the quotient of the normalized hyper-Bessel function and its partial sum, as well as for the quotient of the derivative of normalized hyper-Bessel function and its…

This paper provides bounds for the number of terms, denoted by $f$, of a harmonic sum with the condition that it starts from any arbitrary unit fraction $\frac{1}{m}$, $m > 1$, until another unit fraction $\frac{1}{m+f-1}$ such that the sum…

Paul Erdos and Carl Pomerance have proofs on an asymptotic upper bound on the number of preimages of Euler's totient function $\phi$ and the sum-of-divisors functions $\sigma$. In this paper, we will extend the upper bound to the number of…

We consider a problem posed by Shparlinski, of giving nontrivial bounds for rational exponential sums over the arithmetic function $\tau(n)$, counting the number of divisors of $n$. This is done using some ideas of Sathe concerning the…

We propose a generic algorithm for computing the inverses of a multiplicative function under the assumption that the set of inverses is finite. More generally, our algorithm can compute certain functions of the inverses, such as their power…

We begin by introducing an interesting class of functions, known as the Schemmel totient functions, that generalizes the Euler totient function. For each Schemmel totient function $L_m$, we define two new functions, denoted $R_m$ and $H_m$,…

A multiplicative function $f$ is said to be resembling the M\"{o}bius function if $f$ is supported on the square-free integers, and $f(p)=\pm 1$ for each prime $p$. We prove $O$- and $\Omega$-results for the summatory function $\sum_{n\leq…
