We obtain asymptotic formulas for the sums $\sum_{n_1,\ldots,n_k\le x} f((n_1,\ldots,n_k))$ and $ \sum_{n_1,\ldots,n_k\le x} f([n_1,\ldots,n_k])$ involving the gcd and lcm of the integers $n_1,\ldots,n_k$, where $f$ belongs to certain…

We derive asymptotic estimates for the coefficient of $z^{k}$ in $\left( f\left( z\right) \right) ^{n}$ when $n\rightarrow \infty $ and $k$ is of order $n^{\delta }$, where $0<\delta <1,$ and $f\left( z\right) $ is a power series satisfying…

Let $d(n)$ be the divisor function and it is well known that $\sum_{1\leq n \leq x}d(n) = x\log x+(2\gamma-1)x +\mathcal{O}\left(x^{\theta+\epsilon}\right)$ where $\gamma$ is the Euler constant, $\epsilon>0$ and $1/4<\theta<1/3$. In this…

The main object of this paper is to find closed form expressions for finite and infinite sums that are weighted by $\omega(n)$, where $\omega(n)$ is the number of distinct prime factors of $n$. We then derive general convergence criteria…

We give an asymptotic formula for correlations \[ \sum_{n\le x}f_1(P_1(n))f_2(P_2(n))\cdot \dots \cdot f_m(P_m(n))\] where $f\dots,f_m$ are bounded "pretentious" multiplicative functions, under certain natural hypotheses. We then deduce…

We provide an elementary proof of an asymptotic formula for prime counting functions. As a minor application we give a new reduction of the proof of Chebotar\"ev's density theorem to the cyclic case.

For any $k>1$, we find the asymptotics of the counting function of $k$-th power-free elements in an additive arithmetic semigroup with exponential growth of the abstract prime counting function. This paper continues the authors' earlier…

In this paper, we discuss an alternative approach to determine an asymptotic equivalent of the partial sum of the reciprocals of prime numbers. This well-known result, related to Merten's second theorem, is usually derived through methods…

We consider the function $G(n)=\frac{\sigma(n)}{n\log\log n}$ (where $\sigma(n)=\sum_{d|n}d$) and set an imposed condition on its argument $n$, the fulfillment of which is sufficient for the existence of a prime $p$, at which $G(np)>G(n)$.…

Walfisz (1963) proved the asymptotic formula \[ \sum_{n\le x}\varphi(n) = \frac{3}{\pi^2}x^2+O(x(\log x)^{\frac{2}{3}}(\log\log x)^{\frac{4}{3}}), \] which improved the error term estimate of Mertens (1874) and had been the best possible…

In this article we study the arithmetic mean value $\Sigma(n)$ of the square roots of the first $n$ integers. For this quantity, we develop an asymptotic expression, and derive a formula for its integer part which has been conjectured…

Let $N$ be a fixed positive integer, and let $f\in S_k(N)$ be a primitive cusp form given by the Fourier expansion $f(z)=\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \lambda_f(n)n^{\frac{k-1}{2}}e(nz)$. We consider the partial sum $S(x,f)=\sum_{n\leq…

Quite recently, in [8] the authoor of this paper considered the distribution of primes in the sequence $(S_n)$ whose $n$th term is defined as $S_n=\sum_{k=1}^{2n}p_k$, where $p_k$ is the $k$th prime. Some heuristic arguments and the…

We examine exponential sums of the form $\sum_{n \le X} w(n) e^{2\pi i\alpha n^k}$, for $k=1,2$, where $\alpha$ satisfies a generalized Diophantine approximation and where $w$ are different arithmetic functions that might be multiplicative,…

We derived the sum identities for generalized harmonic and corresponding oscillatory numbers for which a sieve procedure can be applied. The obtained results enable us to understand better the properties of these numbers and their…

We establish an asymptotic formula for the logarithmic mean value of a 1-bounded multiplicative function that is sharp in many cases of interest. We derive from it a variety of applications, making progress on several old problems. As a…

If a sequence $(a_n)$ of non-negative real numbers has ``best possible'' distribution in arithmetic progressions, Bombieri showed that one can deduce an asymptotic formula for the sum $\sum_{n\le x} a_n \Lambda_k(n)$ for $k\ge 2$. By…

In this paper we give an improvement of the degree of the homogeneous linear recurrence with integer coefficients that exponential sums of symmetric Boolean functions satisfy. This improvement is tight. We also compute the asymptotic…

In this paper, we study the distribution of the sequence of integers $2^{\omega(n)}$ under the assumption of the strong Riemann hypothesis, where $\omega(n)$ denotes the number of distinct prime divisors of $n$. We provide an asymptotic…

Let $p_n$ denote the $n$-th prime. In 2000, Panaitopol established the inequality $p_1 \cdots p_n > p_{n+1}^{n - \pi(n)}$ for all $n \geq 2$, where $\pi(x)$ is the prime counting function. In 2021, Yang and Liao refined this by introducing…
