For various arithmetic functions $f:\mathbb{N} \to \mathbb{R}$, the behavior of $f(n!)$ and that of $\sum_{n\le N} f(n!)$ can be intriguing. For instance, for some functions $f$, we have ${f(n!)=\sum_{k\le n}f(k)}$, for others, we have…

We give an asymptotic formula for correlations \[ \sum_{n\le x}f_1(P_1(n))f_2(P_2(n))\cdot \dots \cdot f_m(P_m(n))\] where $f\dots,f_m$ are bounded "pretentious" multiplicative functions, under certain natural hypotheses. We then deduce…

Let $p$ be a prime number, $k\ge 0$ and $f$ be a class of arithmetic functions satisfying some simple conditions. In this short paper, we study the asymptotical behaviour of summation function $$\psi_{f,k}(x):=\sum_{n\le x}\Lambda…

We deduce an asymptotic formula with error term for the sum $\sum_{n_1,\ldots,n_k \le x} f([n_1,\ldots, n_k])$, where $[n_1,\ldots, n_k]$ stands for the least common multiple of the positive integers $n_1,\ldots, n_k$ ($k\ge 2$) and $f$…

We consider a sequence $\{f(p)\}_{p\ {\rm prime}}$ of independent random variables taking values $\pm 1$ with probability $1/2$, and extend $f$ to a multiplicative arithmetic function defined on the squarefree integers. We investigate upper…

In this paper, we study sums of shifted products $\sum\limits_{n \leq x} F(n) G(n-h)$ for any $|h| \leq x/2$ and arithmetic functions $F=f*1$ and $G=g*1$, with $f$ and $g$ small. We obtain asymptotic formula for different orders of…

Let $f_1,\ldots,f_k : \mathbb{N} \rightarrow \mathbb{C}$ be multiplicative functions taking values in the closed unit disc. Using an analytic approach in the spirit of Hal\'{a}sz' mean value theorem, we compute multidimensional averages of…

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…

Let $f\colon\mathbb{N}\rightarrow\mathbb{N}_0$ be a multiplicative arithmetic function such that for all primes $p$ and positive integers $\alpha$, $f(p^{\alpha})<p^{\alpha}$ and $f(p)\vert f(p^{\alpha})$. Suppose also that any prime that…

Given an integer $n \ge 2$, its prime factorization is expressed as $n= \prod_{i=1}^s p_i^{a_i}$. We define the function $f(n)$ as the smallest positive integer such that $f(n)!$ is divisible by $n$. The main objective of this paper is to…

We express some general type of infinite series such as $$ \sum^\infty_{n=1}\frac{F(H_n^{(m)}(z),H_n^{(2m)}(z),\ldots,H_n^{(\ell m)}(z))} {(n+z)^{s_1}(n+1+z)^{s_2}\cdots (n+k-1+z)^{s_k}}, $$ where $F(x_1,\ldots,x_\ell)\in\mathbb…

Let $j \ge1$, $k\ge 0$ be real numbers and $\varphi(n)$ be the Euler function. In this paper, we study the asymptotical behaviour of the summation function $$S_{j,k}(x):=\sum_{n\le x}\frac{\varphi\left ( \left [ \frac{x}{n} \right ]^{j}…

In this note, we characterize all functions $f : \mathbb{N} \rightarrow \mathbb{C}$ such that $f(x_1^2+ \cdots + x_k^2)=f(x_1)^2+ \cdots + f(x_k)^2$, where $k \geq 3$ and $x_1, \cdots, x_k$ are positive integers.

In this paper, we discuss a method that utilizes the recurrence of $A_{n,k}$ to solve summations of the form $\sum_{k=n_0}^{n} A_{n,k}$. It is observed that by repeating the procedure, the upper bound of summation is reduced and tilts…
