Let $ x\geq 1 $ be a large number, let $ [x]=x-\{x\} $ be the largest integer function, and let $ \sigma(n)$ be the sum of divisors function. This note presents the first proof of the asymptotic formula for the average order $ \sum_{p\leq…

We examine the general weighted Lane-Emden system \begin{align*} -\Delta u = \rho(x)v^p,\quad -\Delta v= \rho(x)u^\theta, \quad u,v>0\quad \mbox{in }\;\mathbb{R}^N \end{align*} where $1<p\leq\theta$ and $\rho: \mathbb{R}^N\rightarrow…

We study the function $\Delta_k(x):=\sum_{n\leq x} d_k(n) - \mbox{Res}_{s=1} ( \zeta^k(s) x^s/s )$, where $k\geq 3$ is an integer, $d_k(n)$ is the $k$-fold divisor function, and $\zeta(s)$ is the Riemann zeta-function. For a large parameter…

In this article we prove that the $n$-linear operator whose symbol is the characteristic function of the simplex $\Delta_n = \xi_1 < ... < \xi_n$ is bounded from $L^2 \times ... \times L^2$ into $L^{2/n}$, generalizing in this way our…

Given $x\in(0, 1]$, let $\mathcal U(x)$ be the set of bases $q\in(1,2]$ for which there exists a unique sequence $(d_i)$ of zeros and ones such that $x=\sum_{i=1}^\infty d_i/q^i$. L\"{u}, Tan and Wu (2014) proved that $\mathcal U(x)$ is a…

In this paper, we consider $\alpha$-harmonic functions in the half space $\mathbb{R}^n_+$: \begin{equation} \left\{\begin{array}{ll} (-\Delta)^{\alpha/2} u(x)=0,~u(x)>0, & x\in\mathbb{R}^n_+, \\ u(x)\equiv 0, & x\notin \mathbb{R}^{n}_{+}.…

The orders of magnitudes of the summatory Liouville function L(x), and the summatory Mobius function M(x), are unconditionally proven to be of the forms L(x) = O(x^.5)), and M(x) = O(x^.5) respectively. Furthermore, applications of these…

In this paper, we derive the following asymptotic formula $$ \mathop{{\sum}'}_{n\leqslant x}\dfrac{r(n)}{r(n+1)} = {x}{(\ln x)^{-3/4}}(c+o(1)),\ \ x \to +\infty,$$ where $r(n)$ is the number of representations of $n$ as a sum of two…

Let $X$ be large and let $\mathcal{P}$ denote the set of primes. Fix positive real parameters $r_1,\dots,r_s$ and a parameter $\lambda\geqslant 1$ determined by a balancing relation, and let $\mathcal{A}_{\lambda}(X)\subset[1,2X]$ be the…

Let $\lambda_{\phi}(n)$ be the Fourier coefficients of a Hecke holomorphic or Hecke--Maass cusp form on ${\rm SL}_2(\mathbb Z)$, and $f$ be any multiplicative function that satisfies two mild hypotheses. We establish a non-trivial upper…

Let $A_f(1,n)$ be the normalized Fourier coefficients of a $GL(3)$ Maass cusp form $f$ and let $a_g(n)$ be the normalized Fourier coefficients of a $GL(2)$ cusp form $g$. Let $\lambda(n)$ be either $A_f(1,n)$ or the triple divisor function…

We consider the partial theta function $\theta (q,x):=\sum_{j=0}^{\infty}q^{j(j+1)/2}x^j$, where $x\in \mathbb{C}$ is a variable and $q\in \mathbb{C}$, $0<|q|<1$, is a parameter. We show that, for any fixed $q$, if $\zeta$ is a multiple…

The Chowla conjecture asserts that the values of the Liouville function form a normal sequence of plus and minus ones. Reinterpreted in the language of ergodic theory it asserts that the Liouville function is generic for the Bernoulli…

We substantially apply the Li criterion for the Riemann hypothesis to hold. Based upon a series representation for the sequence \{\lambda_k\}, which are certain logarithmic derivatives of the Riemann xi function evaluated at unity, we…

In the present note, we prove new lower bounds on large values of character sums $\Delta(x,q):=\max_{\chi \neq \chi_0} \vert \sum_{n\leq x} \chi(n)\vert$ in certain ranges of $x$. Employing an implementation of the resonance method…

When restricted to some non-negative multiplicative function, say f, bounded on primes and that vanishes on non square-free integers, our result provides us with an asymptotic for $\sum_{n \le X}f(n)/n$ with error term $O((\log…

We prove some results on the behavior of infinite sums of the form $\Sigma f\circ T^n(x)\frac{1}{n}$, where $T:S^1\to S^1$ is an irrational circle rotation and $f$ is a mean-zero function on $S^1$. In particular, we show that for a certain…

We deduce an asymptotic formula with error term for the sum $\sum_{n_1,\ldots,n_k \le x} f([n_1,\ldots, n_k])$, where $[n_1,\ldots, n_k]$ stands for the least common multiple of the positive integers $n_1,\ldots, n_k$ ($k\ge 2$) and $f$…

Let $\lambda$ and $\mu$ denote the Liouville and M\"obius functions respectively. Hildebrand showed that all eight possible sign patterns for $(\lambda(n), \lambda(n+1), \lambda(n+2))$ occur infinitely often. By using the recent result of…
