Two elementary formulae for Mertens function $M(n)$ are obtained. With these formulae, $M(n)$ can be calculated directly and simply, which can be easily implemented by computer. $M (1) \sim M (2 \times 10^7) $ are calculated one by one.…

We generalize some previous results on random polynomials in several complex variables. A standard setting is to consider random polynomials $H_n(z):=\sum_{j=1}^{m_n} a_jp_j(z)$ that are linear combinations of basis polynomials $\{p_j\}$…

Let f(z) = sum_n a(n) n^{(k-1)/2} e(nz) be a cusp form for Gamma_0(N), character chi and weight k geq 4. Let q(x) = x^2 + sx + t be a polynomial with integral coefficients. It is shown that sum_{n \leq X} a(q(n)) = cX + O(X^{6/7+eps}) for…

The series of some new estimates for the sums of the type \[ S_{q}(x;f)\,=\,\mathop{{\sum}'}\limits_{n\leqslant x}f(n)e_{q}(an^{*}+bn) \] is obtained. Here $q$ is a sufficiently large integer, $\sqrt{q}(\log{q})\!\ll\!x\leqslant q$, $a,b$…

Let $<\P > \subset \N$ be a multiplicative subsemigroup of the natural numbers $\N = \{1,2,3,...\}$ generated by an arbitrary set $\P$ of primes (finite or infinite). We given an elementary proof that the partial sums $\sum_{n \in < \P >: n…

Inspired by the papers by Angelo and Xu, Q.J Math., 74, pp. 767-777, and improvements by Kerr and Klurman, arXiv:2211.05540, we study the probability that the weighted sums of a Rademacher random multiplicative function, $\sum_{n\leq…

Given an arithmetic function $g(n)$ write $M_g(x) := \sum_{n \leq x} g(n)$. We extend and strengthen the results of a fundamental paper of Hal\'{a}sz in several ways by proving upper bounds for the ratio of $\frac{|M_g(x)|}{M_{|g|}(x)}$,…

Let S be a subset of the unit disk, and let F(s) denote the class of completely multiplicative functions f such that f(p) is in S for all primes p. The authors' main concern is which numbers arise as mean-values of functions in F(s). More…

In this short note we prove the following result: If a completely multiplicative function $f:\mathbb{N}\to[-1,1]$ is small on average in the sense that $\sum_{n\leq x}f(n)\ll x^{1-\delta}$, for some $\delta>0$, and if the Dirichlet series…

We deal with a sequence of integer-valued random variables $\{Z_N\}_{N=1}^{\infty}$ which is related to restricted partitions of positive integers. We observe that $Z_N=X_1+ \ldots + X_N$ for independent and bounded random variables…

The $L^q$ norm of a Dirichlet polynomial $F(s)=\sum_{n=1}^{N} a_n n^{-s}$ is defined as \[\| F\|_q:=(\lim_{T\to\infty}\frac{1}{T}\int_{0}^T |F(it)|^qdt)^{1/q}\] for $0<q<\infty$. It is shown that \[ (\sum_{n=1}^{N}…

The authors consider the length, $l_N$, of the length of the longest increasing subsequence of a random permutation of $N$ numbers. The main result in this paper is a proof that the distribution function for $l_N$, suitably centered and…

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…

For the Gaussian and Laguerre random matrix ensembles, the probability density function (p.d.f.) for the linear statistic $\sum_{j=1}^N (x_j - <x>)$ is computed exactly and shown to satisfy a central limit theorem as $N \to \infty$. For the…

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…
