Consider exponential Carmichael function $\lambda^{(e)}$ such that $\lambda^{(e)}$ is multiplicative and $\lambda^{(e)}(p^a) = \lambda(a)$, where $\lambda$ is usual Carmichael function. We discuss the value of $\sum \lambda^{(e)}(n)$, where…

A Lambert series generating function is a special series summed over an arithmetic function $f$ defined by \[ L_f(q) := \sum_{n \geq 1} \frac{f(n) q^n}{1-q^n} = \sum_{m \geq 1} (f \ast 1)(m) q^m. \] Because of the way the left-hand-side…

We exploit the properties of a sequence of functions that approximate the divisor functions and combine them with an analytical formula of a delta-like sequence to give a new proof of a theorem of Gronwall on the asymptotic of the divisor…

Let $f$ be a real-valued $1$-bounded multiplicative function. Suppose that the mean-value of $f^{2}$ exists, and $$\int_{0}^{1} \Big | \sum_{n \leq N} f(n)e^{2\pi i n \alpha} \Big | d \alpha\leq N^{o(1)}$$ as $N \rightarrow \infty$, then…

Let $$ T(q)=\sum_{k=1}^\infty d(k) q^k, \quad |q|<1, $$ where $d(k)$ denotes the number of positive divisors of the natural number $k$. We present monotonicity properties of functions defined in terms of $T$. More specifically, we proved…

Let $\sigma(n)$ and $\gamma(n)$ denote the sum of divisors and the product of distinct prime divisors of $n$ respectively. We shall show that, if $n\neq 1, 1782$ and $\sigma(n)=(\gamma(n))^2$, then there exist odd (not necessarily distinct)…

Let $\gcd(k,j)$ be the greatest common divisor of the integers $k$ and $j$. For any arithmetical function $f$, we establish several asymptotic formulas for weighted averages of gcd-sum functions with weight concerning logarithms, that is…

We use the Petrow-Young [10] subconvexity bound for Dirichlet $L$-functions to show that $d_4(n)$ has exponent of distribution $4/7$ when we allow an average over $a$ mod $q$, thereby giving an equidistribution result for $d_4(n)$ which…

Let \sigma(n) = \sum_{d \mid n}d be the usual sum-of-divisors function. In 1933, Davenport showed that that n/\sigma(n) possesses a continuous distribution function. In other words, the limit D(u):= \lim_{x\to\infty} \frac{1}{x}\sum_{n \leq…

In this paper, we apply the Dirichlet convolution method to \begin{equation*} T_{k}(x)=\sum_{n \leq x} d_{k}(n), \end{equation*} for $k\ge 3$, where $d_{k}(n)$ is the number of ways to represent $n$ as a product of $k$ positive integer…

Let $\alpha$ and $\beta$ be two nonnegative integers such that $\beta < \alpha$. For an arbitrary sequence $\{a_n\}_{n\geqslant 1}$ of complex numbers, we consider the generalized Lambert series in order to investigate linear combinations…

We give generalizations and simple proofs of some $q$-identities of Dilcher, Fu and Lascoux related to divisor functions.

Let $d(n)$ denote the number of divisors of a positive integer $n$. A classical problem in analytic number theory is given by the asymptotic behavior of the divisor sum $\sum_{n \leq x} \frac{1}{d(n)}$, with Ramanujan having introduced an…

In [arXiv:2212.04969], the authors stated some conjectures on the variance of certain sums of the divisor function $d_k(n)$ over number fields, which were inspired by analogous results over function fields proven in [arXiv:2107.01437].…

For a real number $t$, let $s_t$ be the multiplicative arithmetic function defined by $\displaystyle{s_t(p^{\alpha})=\sum_{j=0}^{\alpha}(-p^t)^j}$ for all primes $p$ and positive integers $\alpha$. We show that the range of a function…
