We obtain ergodic theorems for multiple iterated sums and integrals of the form $\Sigma^{(\nu)}(t)=\sum_{0\leq k_1<...<k_\nu\leq t}\xi(k_1)\otimes\cdots\otimes\xi(k_\nu)$, $t\in[0,T]$ and $\Sigma^{(\nu)}(t)=\int_{0\leq s_1\leq...\leq…
Denote by $\lambda(n)$ Liouville's function concerning the parity of the number of prime divisors of $n$. Using a theorem of Allouche, Mend\`es France, and Peyri\`ere and many classical results from the theory of the distribution of prime…
The discrete Fourier transform of the greatest common divisor is a multiplicative function that generalises both the gcd-sum function and Euler's totient function. On the one hand it is the Dirichlet convolution of the identity with…
Let $$\lambda(s)=\sum_{n=0}^\infty\frac1{(2n+1)^s},$$ $$\beta(s)=\sum_{n=0}^\infty\frac{(-1)^{n}}{(2n+1)^s},$$ and $$\eta(s)=\sum_{n=1}^\infty\frac{(-1)^{n-1}}{n^s}$$ be the Dirichlet lambda function, its alternating form, and the Dirichlet…
A positive integer n is said to be perfect if sigma(n)=2n, where sigma denotes the sum of the divisors of n. In this article, we show that if n is an even perfect number, then any integer m<=n is expressed as a sum of some of divisors of n.
Given an arithmetical function $f$, by $f(a, b)$ and $f[a, b]$ we denote the function $f$ evaluated at the greatest common divisor $(a, b)$ of positive integers $a$ and $b$ and evaluated at the least common multiple $[a, b]$ respectively. A…
We consider the summatory function of the number of prime factors for integers $\leq x$ over arithmetic progressions. Numerical experiments suggest that some arithmetic progressions consist more number of prime factors than others. Greg…
K. Igusa and G. Todorov introduced two functions $\phi$ and $\psi,$ which are natural and important homological measures generalising the notion of the projective dimension. These Igusa-Todorov functions have become into a powerful tool to…
In this paper, we consider the function field analogue of the Lehmer's totient problem. Let $p(x)\in\mathbb{F}_q[x]$ and $\varphi(q,p(x))$ be the Euler's totient function of $p(x)$ over $\mathbb{F}_q[x],$ where $\mathbb{F}_q$ is a finite…
Let $N_1(m)=\max\{n \colon \phi(n) \leq m\}$ and $N_1 = \{N_1(m) \colon m \in \phi(\mathbb{N})\}$ where $\phi(n)$ denotes the Euler's totient function. Masser and Shiu \cite{masser} call the elements of $N_1$ as `sparsely totient numbers'…
An important unsolved question in number theory is the Lehmer's totient problem that asks whether there exists any composite number $n$ such that $\varphi(n)\mid n-1$, where $\varphi$ is the Euler's totient function. It is known that if any…
A new definition for the Dirichlet beta function for positive integer arguments is discovered and presented for the first time. This redefinition of the Dirichlet beta function, based on the polygamma function for some special values,…
Two inequalities involving the Euler totient function and the sum of the $k$-th powers of the divisors of balancing numbers are explored.
This paper is devoted to the proof Gauss' divergence theorem in the framework of "ultrafunctions". They are a new kind of generalized functions, which have been introduced recently [2] and developed in [4], [5] and [6]. Their peculiarity is…
In 1997 the present authors published a review (Ref. BEL97 in the present manuscript) that recapitulated and developed classical theory of Abelian functions realized in terms of multi-dimensional sigma-functions. This approach originated by…
Finite Euler product is known to be one of the classical zeta functions in number theory. In [1], [2] and [3], we have introduced some multivariable zeta functions and studied their definable probability distributions on R^d. They include…
Let $0 < a \le 1$, $s,z \in {\mathbb{C}}$ and $0 < |z|\le 1$. Then the Hurwitz-Lerch zeta function is defined by $\Phi (s,a,z) := \sum_{n=0}^\infty z^n(n+a)^{-s}$ when $\sigma :=\Re (s) >1$. In this paper, we show that the Hurwitz zeta…
The image of Euler's totient function is composed of the number 1 and even numbers. However, many even numbers are not in the image. We consider the problem of finding those even numbers which are in the image and those which are not. If an…
This work highlights the existence of partial symmetries in large families of iterated plethystic coefficients. The plethystic coefficients involved come from the expansion in the Schur basis of iterated plethysms of Schur functions indexed…
It is shown that if a non-zero function $f\in B_\sigma$ has infinitely many double zeros on the real axis, then there exists at least one pair of consecutive zeros whose distance apart is greater than $\dfrac{\pi}{\sigma}\tau^{1/4}$,…
