We generalize recent matrix-based factorization theorems for Lambert series generating functions generating the coefficients $(f \ast 1)(n)$ for some arithmetic function $f$. Our new factorization theorems provide analogs to these…

It is known that the partition functions of the U(N) x U(N+M) ABJM theory satisfy a set of bilinear relations, which, written in the grand partition function, was recently found to be the q-Painleve III_3 equation. In this paper we have…

Let $n$ and $t$ be positive integers with $t\geq 2$. Let $R_t(n)$ be the number of $t$-regular partitions of $n$. A class of functions, denoted $\tau_k(n)$, is defined as follows:…

We establish asymptotic formulae for various correlations involving general divisor functions $d_k(n)$ and partial divisor functions $d_l(n,A)=\sum_{q|n:q\leq n^A}d_{l-1}(q)$, where $A\in[0,1]$ is a parameter and $k,l\in\mathbb{N}$ are…

We investigate fractional sums of arithmetic functions over products of two or three integers, with emphasis on fixed greatest common divisors and multiplicative weights. Let $f$ be an arithmetic function satisfying $f(n) \ll n^\alpha$ for…

We prove a non-trivial result for the,say,modified Selberg integral $\modSel_3(N,h)$, of the divisor function $d_3(n):= \sum_{a}\sum_{b}\sum_{c, abc=n}1$; this integral is a slight modification of the corresponding Selberg integral, that…

In this work we introduce new combinatorial objects called $d$--fold partition diamonds, which generalize both the classical partition function and the partition diamonds of Andrews, Paule and Riese, and we set $r_d(n)$ to be their counting…

Given a positive integer $n$ the $k$-fold divisor function $d_k(n)$ equals the number of ordered $k$-tuples of positive integers whose product equals $n$. In this article we study the variance of sums of $d_k(n)$ in short intervals and…

In a recent paper, Merca posed three conjectures on congruences for specific convolutions of a sum of odd divisor functions with a generating function for generalized $m$-gonal numbers. Extending Merca's work, we complete the proof of these…

In [arXiv:2212.04969], the authors stated some conjectures on the variance of certain sums of the divisor function $d_k(n)$ over number fields, which were inspired by analogous results over function fields proven in [arXiv:2107.01437].…

We study the deterministic recursion $n_{j+1} = n_j - \tau(n_j)$, where $\tau(n)$ denotes the divisor function, and the associated orbit length $a(x)$. Heuristics based on the average order of $\tau(n)$ suggest that $a(x) \asymp x / \log…
