Let p be a fixed prime. An Abelian p-group is an Abelian group (not necessarily finitely generated) in which every element has for its order some power of p. The countable Abelian p-groups are classified by Ulm's theorem, and Khisamiev…

We show that for a random polynomial \[ F(X) = \sum_{n=1}^{N} f(n) X^{n-1}, \] where $f(n)$ is a random completely multiplicative function taking values in $\{\pm 1\}$, one has \[ \limsup_{N \to \infty} \mathbb{P}\big[F(X) \text{ is…

Let v be a multiplicative arithmetic function with support of positive asymptotic density. We prove that for any not identically zero arithmetic function f such that \sum_{f(n) \neq 0} 1 / n < \infty, the support of the Dirichlet…

In analytic number theory, several results make use of information regarding the prime values of a multiplicative function in order to extract information about its averages. Examples of such results include Wirsing's theorem and the…

We discuss when the nonlinear operation $f\mapsto F(f)$ maps the modulation space $M^{p,q}_s(\mathbb{R}^n)$ ($1 \leq p,q \leq \infty$) to the same space again. It is known that $M^{p,q}_s(\mathbb{R}^n)$ is a multiplication algebra when $s >…

Let $p$ and $q$ be two positive primes. Let $\ell$ be an odd positive prime integer and $F$ a quadratic number field. Let $K$ be an extension of $F$ such that $K$ is a dihedral extension of $\Q$ of degree $\ell$ over $F$ or $K$ is an…

The arithmetic derivative is a function from the natural numbers to itself that sends all prime numbers to $1$ and satisfies the Leibniz rule. The arithmetic partial derivative with respect to a prime $p$ is the $p$-th component of the…

Let $\mathbf{S}$ be the set of all finite or infinite increasing sequences of positive integers. For a sequence $S=\{s(n)\}, n\geq1,$ from $\mathbf{S},$ let us call a positive number $N$ an exponentially $S$-number $(N\in E(S)),$ if all…

Fix $a \in \mathbb{Z}$, $a\notin \{0,\pm 1\}$. A simple argument shows that for each $\epsilon > 0$, and almost all (asymptotically 100% of) primes $p$, the multiplicative order of $a$ modulo $p$ exceeds $p^{\frac12-\epsilon}$. It is an…

P. V. Chung showed that there are many multiplicative functions $f$ which satisfy $f(m^2+n^2) = f(m^2)+f(n^2)$ for all positive integers $m$ and $n$. In this article, we show that if more than $2$ squares in the additive condition are…

Let $f$ be a polynomial with integer coefficients such that $f(n)$ positive for any positive integer $n$. We consider diverging sequences $\{ y_n\}$ given by $y_0 = b$ and $y_{n+1} = f^{y_n}(a)$ with positive integers $a$ and $b$. We show…

Let $F=\{H_1,...,H_k\}$ be a family of graphs. A graph $G$ with $m$ edges is called {\em totally $F$-decomposable} if for {\em every} linear combination of the form $\alpha_1 e(H_1) + ... + \alpha_k e(H_k) = m$ where each $\alpha_i$ is a…

Given an integer $n \ge 2$, its prime factorization is expressed as $n= \prod_{i=1}^s p_i^{a_i}$. We define the function $f(n)$ as the smallest positive integer such that $f(n)!$ is divisible by $n$. The main objective of this paper is to…
