We study product sets of finite arithmetic progressions of polynomials over a finite field. We prove a lower bound for the size of the product set, uniform in a wide range of parameters. We apply our results to resolve the function field…

Let $ k,l \geq 2$ be natural numbers, and let $d_k,d_l$ denote the $k$-fold and $l$-fold divisor functions, respectively. We analyse the asymptotic behavior of the sum $\sum_{x<n\leq x+H_1}d_k(n)d_l(n+h)$. More precisely, let…

This paper shows that certain $\,_{3}F_{4}$ hypergeometric functions can be expanded in sums of pair products of $\,_{1}F_{2}$ functions. In special cases, the $\,_{3}F_{4}$ hypergeometric functions reduce to $\,_{2}F_{3}$ functions.…

In this paper we establish a new formula for the arithmetic functions that verify $ f(n) = \sum_{d|n} g(d)$ where $g$ is also an arithmetic function. We prove the following identity, $$\forall n \in \mathbb{N}^*, \ \ \ f(n) = \sum_{k=1}^n…

We consider the uniform asymptotic expansion for the Gauss hypergeometric function \[F(a+\epsilon\lambda,m;c+\lambda;x),\qquad \lambda\to+\infty\] for $x<1$ and positive integer $m$ when the parameter $\epsilon>1$ and the constants $a$ and…

Let $f(n)$ be a multiplicative function satisfying $|f(n)|\leq 1$, $q$ $(\leq N^2)$ be a prime number and $a$ be an integer with $(a,\,q)=1$, $\chi$ be a non-principal Dirichlet character modulo $q$. In this paper, we shall prove that $$…

Given two independent samples of non-negative random variables with unknown distribution functions $F$ and $G$, respectively, we introduce and discuss two tests for the hypothesis that $F$ is less than or equal to $G$ in increasing convex…

We are concerned in this paper with the functional asymptotic behaviour of the sequence of stochastic processes T_{n}(f)=\sum_{j=1}^{j=k}f(j)(\log X_{n-j+1,n}-\log X_{n-j,n}), indexed by some classes $\mathcal{F}$ of functions $f:\mathbb{N}…

We examine the sum of modified Bessel functions with argument depending quadratically on the summation index given by \[S_\nu(a)=\sum_{n\geq 1} (\frac{1}{2} an^2)^{-\nu} K_\nu(an^2)\qquad (|\arg\,a|<\pi/2)\] as the parameter $|a|\to 0$. It…

We obtain several asymptotic estimates for the sums of the restricted divisor function $$ \tau_{M,N}(k) = #\{1 \le m \le M, \ 1\le n \le N: mn = k\} $$ over short arithmetic progressions, which improve some results of J. Truelsen. Such…

We complement a recent result of S. Furuichi, by showing that the differences $\sum_{i=1}^n \alpha_i x_i - \prod_{i=1}^n x_i^{\alpha_i}$ associated to distinct sequences of weights are comparable, with constants that depend on the smallest…

Cohen-Ramanujan sum, denoted by $c_r^s(n)$, is an exponential sum similar to the Ramanujan sum $c_r(n):=\sum\limits_{\substack{h=1\\{(h,r)=1}}}^{r}e^{\frac{2\pi i n h}{r}}$. An arithmetical function $f$ is said to admit a Cohen-Ramanujan…
