Let $d(n)$ be the divisor function and denote by $[t]$ the integral part of the real number $t$. In this paper, we prove that $$\sum_{n\leq x^{1/c}}d\left(\left[\frac{x}{n^c}\right]\right)=d_cx^{1/c}+\mathcal{O}_{\varepsilon,c}…

We prove that $$\int_0^1\frac{-\log f(x)}xdx=\frac{\pi^2}{3ab}$$ where $f(x)$ is the decreasing function that satisfies $f^a-f^b=x^a-x^b$, for $0<a<b$. When $a$ is an integer and $b=a+1$ we deduce several combinatorial results. These…

We improve S.-C. Chen's result on the parity of Schur's partition function. Let $A(n)$ be the number of Schur's partitions of $n$, i.e., the number of partitions of $n$ into distinct parts congruent to $1, 2 \mod{3}$. S.-C. Chen…

Let $\tau(n)$ be the number of divisors of $n$. We give an elementary proof of the fact that $$ \sum_{n\le x} \tau(n)^r =xC_{r} (\log x)^{2^r-1}+O(x(\log x)^{2^r-2}), $$ for any integer $r\ge 2$. Here, $$ C_{r}=\frac{1}{(2^r-1)!}…

Assume that $\alpha>1$ is an algebraic number and $\xi\neq0$ is a real number. We are concerned with the distribution of the fractional parts of the sequence $(\xi \alpha^{n})$. Under various Diophantine conditions on $\xi$ and $\alpha$, we…

The $q$-analogue of an integer $m$ is given by $[m]_q=(1-q^m)/(1-q)$. Let $a$ be an integer, and let $n$ be a positive odd integer. Via discrete Fourier transforms, we establish the following two identities:…

We establish why li(x) outperforms x/log x as an estimate for the prime counting function pi(x). The result follows from subdividing the natural numbers into the intervals s_k :={p_k^2,..., p_{k+1}^2-1}, k>=1, each being fully sieved by the…

We prove that a positive integer $n$ is a Fibonacci number of even index if and only if $\langle n\varphi\rangle+\frac{1}{n}>1$.

The divisor function $\sigma(n)$ denotes the sum of the divisors of the positive integer $n$. For a prime $p$ and $m \in \mathbb{N}$, the $p$-adic valuation of $m$ is the highest power of $p$ which divides $m$. Formulas for…

For every integer $n\ge 1$ let $a_n$ be the smallest positive integer such that $n+a_n$ is prime. We investigate the behavior of the sequence $(a_n)_{n\ge 1}$, and prove asymptotic results for the sums $\sum_{n\le x} a_n$, $\sum_{n\le x}…

The {\em Liouville function} is defined by $\gl(n):=(-1)^{\Omega(n)}$ where $\Omega(n)$ is the number of prime divisors of $n$ counting multiplicity. Let $\z_m:=e^{2\pi i/m}$ be a primitive $m$--th root of unity. As a generalization of…

For any positive integer $p\geq 3$, let $A$ be a proper subset of $\{0,1,\ldots, p-1\}$ with $\sharp A=s\geq 2$. Suppose $h: \{0,1,\ldots,s-1\}\to A$ is a one-to-one map which is strictly increasing with $A=\{h(0),h(1),\ldots,h(s-1)\}$. We…

Let $f(n)$ be a multiplicative function satisfying $|f(n)|\leq 1$, $q$ $(\leq N^2)$ be a positive integer and $a$ be an integer with $(a,\,q)=1$. In this paper, we shall prove that $$\sum_{\substack{n\leq N\\ (n,\,q)=1}}f(n)e({a\bar{n}\over…

For $(M,a)=1$, put \begin{equation*} G(X;M,a)=\sup_{p^\prime_n\leq X}(p^\prime_{n+1}-p^\prime_n), \end{equation*} where $p^\prime_n$ denotes the $n$-th prime that is congruent to $a\pmod{M}$. We show that for any positive $C$, provided $X$…

For a finite sequence of positive integers $A=\{a_j\}_{j=1}^{k},$ we prove a recursion for divisor function $\sigma_{x}^{(A)}(n)=\sum_{d|n,\enskip d\in A}d^x.$ As a corollary, we give an affirmative solution of the problem posed in 1969 by…

Let $f$ be a completely multiplicative function that assumes values inside the unit disc. We show that if $\sum_{n<x} f(n) \ll x/(\log x)^A$, $x>2$, for some $A>2$, then either $f(p)$ is small on average or $f$ pretends to be $\mu(n)n^{it}$…

The partition function $p(n)$ and many of its related restricted partition functions have recently been shown independently to satisfy log-concavity: $p(n)^2 \geq p(n-1)p(n+1)$ for $n\geq 26$, and satisfy the inequality: $p(n)p(m) \geq…
