We obtain reasonably tight upper and lower bounds on the sum $\sum_{n \leqslant x} \varphi \left( \left\lfloor{x/n}\right\rfloor\right)$, involving the Euler functions $\varphi$ and the integer parts $\left\lfloor{x/n}\right\rfloor$ of the…
In this note, we provide refined estimates of the following sums involving the Euler totient function: $$\sum_{n\le x} \phi\left(\left[\frac{x}{n}\right]\right) \qquad \text{and} \qquad \sum_{n\le x} \frac{\phi([x/n])}{[x/n]}$$ where $[x]$…
Let $ x\geq 1 $ be a large number, let $ [x]=x-\{x\} $ be the largest integer function, and let $ \varphi(n)$ be the Euler totient function. The result $ \sum_{n\leq x}\varphi([x/n])=(6/\pi^2)x\log x+O\left ( x(\log x)^{2/3}(\log\log…
In this short, we study sums of the shape $\sum_{n\leqslant x}{f([x/n])}/{[x/n]},$ where $f$ is Euler totient function $\varphi$, Dedekind function $\Psi$, sum-of-divisors function $\sigma$ or the alternating sum-of-divisors function…
We prove that $$ \sum_{n \leq x} \varphi([x/n])\leq\bigg(\frac{1380}{4009}+\frac{2629}{4009}\cdot\frac1{\zeta(2)}+o(1)\bigg)x\log x $$ as $x\to\infty$, where $\varphi$ denotes the Euler totient function and $[x]$ denotes the integer part of…
We obtain an upper bound for the sum $\sum_{n\leq N} (a_{n}/\varphi (a_{n}))^{s}$, where $\varphi$ is Euler's totient function, $s\in \mathbb{N}$, and $a_{1},\ldots, a_{N}$ are positive integers (not necessarily distinct) with some…
This note contains some asymptotic formulas for the sums of various residue classes of Euler's phi-function.
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}…
Let $\phi(n)$ be the Euler totient function and $\phi_k(n)$ its $k$-fold iterate. In this note, we improve the upper bound for the number of positive $n\leqslant x$ such that $\phi_{k+1}(n)\geqslant cn$. Comparing with the upper bound which…
The aim of this note is to provide an upper bound of the number of positive integers $\le x$ which can be written as $\varphi(n)$ for some positive integer $n$, where $\varphi$ stands for the Euler's function. The order of magnitude of this…
Walfisz (1963) proved the asymptotic formula \[ \sum_{n\le x}\varphi(n) = \frac{3}{\pi^2}x^2+O(x(\log x)^{\frac{2}{3}}(\log\log x)^{\frac{4}{3}}), \] which improved the error term estimate of Mertens (1874) and had been the best possible…
We study Birkhoff sums over rotations (series of the form $\sum_{r=1}^{N}\phi(r\alpha)$), in which the summed function $\phi$ may be unbounded at the origin. Estimates of these sums have been of significant interest and application in pure…
We propose a lower estimation for computing quantity of the inverses of Euler's function. We answer the question about the multiplicity of $m$ in the equation $\varphi(x) = m$ \cite{Ford}. An analytic expression for exact multiplicity of $m…
Based on elementary methods and techniques, the explicit formula for the generalized Euler function $\varphi_{e}(n)(e=8,12)$ is given, and then a sufficient and necessary condition for $\varphi_{8}(n)$ or $\varphi_{12}(n)$ to be odd is…
In this short note, we obtain error estimates for Riemann sums of some singular functions.
An algorithm is devised for computing $\Phi(n) = \phi(1) + \phi(2) + \cdots + \phi(n)$ in time $\widetilde{\Theta}(n^{2/3})$ and space $\widetilde{\Theta}(n^{1/3})$. The starting point is an existing algorithm based on the Dirichlet…
Euler totient function $\phi(n)$ plays a central role in number theory and is applied in areas such as cryptography. In this paper, we study iterations of the totient function. We first prove that for any integer $n>2$, iteratively applying…
In this paper, basing on the linear algebra methods and elementary techniques, for any positive integers $ e $ and $ n $, we obtain a recursion formula for the generalized Euler function $ \varphi_e(n) $, which is determined by some…
Let us denote by $\tau(n)$ and $\si(n)$ the number and the sum of the divisors of $n$ and by $\vfi$ Euler's function. We give effective upper bounds for $\frac{n}{\vfi(n)}$ in terms of $\vfi(n)$, and for $\frac{\si(n)}{n}$ in terms of…
