We find exact identities for sums of the form \begin{equation*}\label{eq:convsumabs} \sum_{\stackrel{n_1+n_2 = n}{n_1 \in \mathbb{Z} \setminus \{ 0, n \} }} Q(n_1,n_2) \sigma_{-r_1}(n_1) \sigma_{-r_2}(n_2), \end{equation*} where…
Let $d,n$ be positive integers and $S$ be an arbitrary set of positive integers. We say that $d$ is an $S$-divisor of $n$ if $d|n$ and gcd $(d,n/d)\in S$. Consider the $S$-convolution of arithmetical functions given by (1.1), where the sum…
Let $0< n,\alpha,\beta\in\mathbb{N}$ be such that $\gcd{(\alpha,\beta)}=1$. We carry out the evaluation of the convolution sums $\underset{\substack{ {(k,l)\in\mathbb{N}^{2}} \\ {\alpha\,k+\beta\,l=n} } }{\sum}\sigma(k)\sigma_{3}(l)$ and…
We discuss an elementary method for the evaluation of the convolution sums $\underset{\substack{ {(l,m)\in\mathbb{N}_{0}^{2}} \\ {\alpha\,l+\beta\,m=n} } }{\sum}\sigma(l)\sigma(m)$ for those $\alpha,\beta\in\mathbb{N}$ for which…
We prove new exact formulas for the generalized sum-of-divisors functions, $\sigma_{\alpha}(x) := \sum_{d|x} d^{\alpha}$. The formulas for $\sigma_{\alpha}(x)$ when $\alpha \in \mathbb{C}$ is fixed and $x \geq 1$ involves a finite sum over…
We prove exact identities for convolution sums of divisor functions of the form $\sum_{n_1 \in \mathbb{Z} \smallsetminus \{0,n\}}\varphi(n_1,n-n_1)\sigma_{2m_1}(n_1)\sigma_{2m_2}(n-n_1)$ where $\varphi(n_1,n_2)$ is a Laurent polynomial with…
Consider the real numbers $$ \ell_{n,k} = \ln\left( \tfrac{3}{2}\,k+\sqrt{\left(\tfrac{3}{2}\,k \right)^2 + 3\,n} \right) $$ and the intervals $\mathcal{L}_{n,k} = \left]\ell_{n,k}-\ln 3,\ell_{n,k}\right]$. For all $n \geq 1$, define $$…
For all natural numbers $n$, we discuss the evaluation of the convolution sum, $\underset{\substack{{(l,m) \in \mathbb{N}_0^2} \\ {\alpha\,l+\beta\,m=n} } }{\sum}\sigma(l)\sigma(m)$, where $\alpha\beta=14,22,26$. We generalize the…
We study the triple convolution sum of the generalised divisor functions $$\sum_{n\leq x} d_k(n+h)d_l(n)d_m(n-h),$$ where $h \le x^{1-\epsilon}$ for any $\epsilon>0$ and $d_k(n)$ denotes the generalised divisor function which counts the…
Ingham studied two types of convolution sums of the divisor function, namely the shifted convolution sum $\sum_{n \le N} d(n) d(n+h)$ and the additive convolution sum $\sum_{n < N} d(n) d(N-n)$ for integers $N, h$ and derived their…
Ramanujan gave a recurrence relation for the partition function in terms of the sum of the divisor function $\sigma(n)$. In 1885, J.W. Glaisher considered seven divisor sums closely related to the sum of the divisors function. We develop a…
We study the shifted convolution sum of the divisor function and some other arithmetic functions.
Let $p_{-r}(n)$ denote the $r$-coloured partition function, and $\sigma(n)=\sum_{d|n}d$ denote the sum of positive divisors of $n$. The aim of this note is to prove the following $$…
The class of Lambert series generating functions (LGFs) denoted by $L_{\alpha}(q)$ formally enumerate the generalized sum-of-divisors functions, $\sigma_{\alpha}(n) = \sum_{d|n} d^{\alpha}$, for all integers $n \geq 1$ and fixed real-valued…
We evaluate the convolution sums $\sum_{l,m\in {\mathbb N}, {l+15m=n}} \sigma(l) \sigma(m)$ and $\sum_{l,m\in {\mathbb N}, {3l+5m=n}} \sigma(l) \sigma(m)$ for all $n\in {\mathbb N}$ using the theory of quasimodular forms and use these…
We study the triple convolution sum of the divisor function given by $$\sum_{n\leq x} d(n)d(n-h)d(n+h)$$ for $h\neq 0$ and $d(n)$ denotes the number of positive divisors of $n$. Based on algebraic and geometric considerations, Browning…

Let $d_1 = 1 < d_2 < d_3 < \cdots < d_{\tau(n)} = n$ denote the increasing sequence of the divisors of a positive integer $n$. In this paper, for real or complex values of $\alpha$, we define and study some properties of two new divisor…
We introduce new analogues of the Ramanujan sums, denoted by $\widetilde{c}_q(n)$, associated with unitary divisors, and obtain results concerning the expansions of arithmetic functions of several variables with respect to the sums…
We prove an asymptotic formula for the shifted convolution of the divisor functions $d_3(n)$ and $d(n)$, which is uniform in the shift parameter and which has a power-saving error term. The method is also applied to give analogous estimates…
