For integer $n\geqslant 1$ and real number $z\geqslant 1$, define $M(n,z):=\sum_{d|n,\,d\leqslant z}\mu(d)$ where $\mu$ denotes the M\"obius function. Put ${\cal L}(y):=\exp\left\{(\log y)^{3/5}/(\log_2y)^{1/5}\right\}$ $(y\geqslant 3)$. We…

Basing on properties of the Mellin transform and Ramanujan's identities, which represent a ratio of products of Riemann's zeta- functions of different arguments in terms of the Dirichlet series of arithmetic functions, we obtain a number of…

We study sums of the shape $\sum_{n \leqslant x} f \left( \lfloor x/n \rfloor \right)$ where $f$ is either the von Mangoldt function or the Dirichlet-Piltz divisor functions. We improve previous estimates when $f = \Lambda$ and $f = \tau$,…

We develop an approach to study character sums, weighted by a multiplicative function $f:\mathbb{F}_q[t]\to S^1$, of the form \begin{equation} \sum_{G\in \mathcal{M}_N}f(G)\chi(G)\xi(G), \end{equation} where $\chi$ is a Dirichlet character…

Let the summatory function of the M\"{o}bius function be denoted $M(x)$. We deduce in this article conditional results concerning $M(x)$ assuming the Riemann Hypothesis and a conjecture of Gonek and Hejhal on the negative moments of the…

An infinite set of operator-valued relations in Liouville field theory is established. These relations are enumerated by a pair of positive integers $(m,n)$, the first $(1,1)$ representative being the usual Liouville equation of motion. The…

Consider the following nonlinear Neumann problem \[ \begin{cases} \text{div}\left(y^{a}\nabla u(x,y)\right)=0, & \text{for }(x,y)\in\mathbb{R}_{+}^{n+1}\\ \lim_{y\rightarrow0+}y^{a}\frac{\partial u}{\partial y}=-f(u), & \text{on…

The Landau-Selberg-Delange method gives precise asymptotic formulas for the partial sums $\sum_{n \le x} \, a_n$ of a Dirichlet series $\sum_n \, a_n/n^s$ that behaves like a complex power of the Riemann zeta function. However, situations…

In this article we study some properties of the discrete convolution of Liouville function $S(n):=\sum_{m_{1}+m_{2}=n}\lambda\left(m_{1}\right)\lambda\left(m_{2}\right)$, which is a Goldbach-type counting function of representations. In…

The main aim of this paper is to establish several Landau-type theorems for certain bounded poly-analytic functions and reduced poly-analytic functions that generalize some previously established results.

It is shown that any number of distinct primitive $\mathrm{GL}(1)$ and $\mathrm{GL}(2)$ $L$-functions can simultaneously attain large values on the critical line. This is an unconditional improvement of a general result due to Heap and Li…

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…
