Explicit formulas involving a generalized Ramanujan sum are derived. An analogue of the prime number theorem is obtained and equivalences of the Riemann hypothesis are shown. Finally, explicit formulas of Bartz are generalized.
A new class of integrals involving the confluent hypergeometric function ${}_1F_{1}(a;c;z)$ and the Riemann $\Xi$-function is considered. It generalizes a class containing some integrals of S. Ramanujan, G.H. Hardy and W.L. Ferrar and gives…
We define a new kind of classical digamma function, and establish its some fundamental identities. Then we apply the formulas obtained, and extend tools developed by Flajolet and Salvy to study more general Euler type sums. The main results…
Some necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of Cohen-Ramanujan expansions for arithmetical functions were provided by these authors in [\textit{arXive preprint arXive:2205.08466}, 2022]. Given two arithmetical functions $f$…
In this paper, we study $C(x, y)$, the second moment of Ramanujan sums. Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis(RH), we establish an asymptotic formula for $C(x, y)$ with improved error term. Our analysis applies uniformly to the case where $x$ and…
In a 1916 paper, Ramanujan studied the additive convolution $S_{a, b}(n)$ of sum-of-divisors functions $\sigma_a(n)$ and $\sigma_b(n)$, and proved an asymptotic formula for it when $a$ and $b$ are positive odd integers. He also conjectured…
The null-function $0(a):=0$, $\forall a\in $N, has Ramanujan expansions: $0(a)=\sum_{q=1}^{\infty}(1/q)c_q(a)$ (where $c_q(a):=$ Ramanujan sum), given by Ramanujan, and $0(a)=\sum_{q=1}^{\infty}(1/\varphi(q))c_q(a)$, given by Hardy…
Let $\sigma_a^{(N)}(n)=\sum_{d^{N}|n}d^a$. An explicit transformation is obtained for the generalized Lambert series $\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\sigma_{a}^{(N)}(n)e^{-ny}$ for Re$(a)>-1$ using the recently established Vorono\"i summation formula…
We show that the absolute convergence of a Ramanujan expansion does not guarantee the convergence of its real variable generalization, which is obtained by replacing the integer argument in the Ramanujan sums with a real number. We also…
Studying Correlations with Ramanujan Expansions, we arrive to present the new class of, say, Two-Seasons Correlations, abbr. T-S, as a natural set expressing some of the features of, say, H-L-like Correlations; these are the ones that mimic…
An algebraic transformation of the DeTemple-Wang half-integer approximation to the harmonic series produces the general formula and error estimate for the Ramanujan expansion for the nth harmonic number.
We study Ramanujan-Fourier series of certain arithmetic functions of two variables. We generalize Delange's theorem to the case of arithmetic functions of two variables and give sufficient conditions for pointwise convergence of…
In this paper, we obtain some improved results for the exponential sum $\sum_{x<n\leq 2x}\Lambda(n)e(\alpha k n^{\theta})$ with $\theta\in(0,5/12),$ where $\Lambda(n)$ is the von Mangoldt function. Such exponential sums have relations with…
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…
We derive two new analogues of a transformation formula of Ramanujan involving the Gamma and Riemann zeta functions present in the Lost Notebook. Both involve infinite series consisting of Hurwitz zeta functions and yield modular relations.…
We heuristically study the shifted convolution $\sum_{n\le X} \tau_k(n) \tau_\ell(n+h)$ using a normalized version of Ramanujan-Fourier expansions for $\tau_k(n)$ and verify they produce the expected answer.
An algebraic transformation of the DeTemple-Wang half-integer approximation to the harmonic series produces the general formula and error estimate for the Ramanujan expansion for the nth harmonic number into negative powers of the nth…
In this self-contained short note, we prove that {\it every arithmetic function} $F$ {\it has infinitely many Ramanujan coefficients} $G$ {\it giving an absolutely convergent Ramanujan expansion for $F$}. This is "coefficients'…
In the study of Ramanujan sums, the so-called regular $A$-function is a set-valued multiplicative function that tracks certain subsets of the divisor sets of natural numbers. McCarthy provided a generalization of the Ramanujan sum using…
