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…

The Dirichlet lambda function $\lambda(s)$ is defined for $\mathrm{Re}(s) > 1$ by \[ \lambda(s) = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} \frac{1}{(2n+1)^s}. \] This function was initially studied by Euler on the real line, where he denoted it by $N(s)$. In…

Following a suggestion of W.M. Schmidt and L. Summerer, we construct a proper $3$-system $(P_{1},P_{2},P_{3})$ with the property $\overline{\varphi}_{3}=1$. In fact, our method generalizes to provide $n$-systems with…

We extend classical Propositional Logic (PL) by adding a new primitive binary connective $\varphi|\psi$, intended to represent the "superposition" of sentences $\varphi$ and $\psi$, an operation motivated by the corresponding notion of…

Let $g \geq 2$. A real number is said to be g-normal if its base g expansion contains every finite sequence of digits with the expected limiting frequency. Let \phi denote Euler's totient function, let \sigma be the sum-of-divisors…

Define {\em the Liouville function for $A$}, a subset of the primes $P$, by $\lambda_{A}(n) =(-1)^{\Omega_A(n)}$ where $\Omega_A(n)$ is the number of prime factors of $n$ coming from $A$ counting multiplicity. For the traditional Liouville…

For an odd prime $p$, let $\phi$ denote the quadratic character of the multiplicative group ${\mathbb F}_p^\times$, where ${\mathbb F}_p$ is the finite field of $p$ elements. In this paper, we will obtain evaluations of the hypergeometric…

Recently, several mathematicians have investigated various partition functions with the goal of discovering Ramanujan-type congruences. One such function is $\overline{B}_{2^\alpha}(n)$, which represents the number of $2^\alpha-$regular…

Amdeberhan et al. (2024) introduced the notion of a generalized overcubic partition function $\overline a_c (n)$ and proved an infinite family of congruences modulo a prime $p\ge 3$ and some Ramanujan type congruences. In this paper, we…

Let $\vec{P}=(p_1,\dotsc,p_m)$ with $1<p_1,\dotsc,p_m<\infty$, $1/p_1+\dotsb+1/p_m=1/p$ and $\vec{w}=(w_1,\dotsc,w_m)\in A_{\vec{P}}$. In this paper, we investigate the weighted bounds with dependence on aperture $\alpha$ for multilinear…

We consider multiply periodic functions, sometimes called Abelian functions, defined with respect to the period matrices associated with classes of algebraic curves. We realise them as generalisations of the Weierstras P-function using two…

Stanley defined a partition function t(n) as the number of partitions $\lambda$ of n such that the number of odd parts of $\lambda$ is congruent to the number of odd parts of the conjugate partition $\lambda'$ modulo 4. We show that t(n)…

Andrews, Lewis and Lovejoy introduced the partition function $PD(n)$ as the number of partitions of $n$ with designated summands. In a recent work, Lin studied a partition function $PD_{t}(n)$ which counts the number of tagged parts over…

We define a switch function to be a function from an interval to $\{1,-1\}$ with a finite number of sign changes. (Special cases are the Walsh functions.) By a topological argument, we prove that, given $n$ real-valued functions, $f_1,…

Let $\mathcal{P}$ be the set of all primes and $\psi(n)=n\prod_{n\in \mathcal{P},p|n}(1+1/p)$ be the Dedekind psi function. We show that the Riemann hypothesis is satisfied if and only if $f(n)=\psi(n)/n-e^{\gamma} \log \log n <0$ for all…
