Let $d(n)$ be the divisor function and denote by $[t]$ the integral part of the real number $t$. In this paper, we prove that $$\sum_{n\leq x^{1/c}}d\left(\left[\frac{x}{n^c}\right]\right)=d_cx^{1/c}+\mathcal{O}_{\varepsilon,c}…
The details for the construction of an explicit formula for the divisors function d(n) = #{d | n} are formalized in this article. This formula facilitates a unified approach to the investigation of the error terms of the divisor problem and…
We give an improved lower bound for the average of the Erd\H{o}s-Hooley function $\Delta(n)$, namely $\sum_{n\le x} \Delta(n) \gg_\varepsilon x(\log\log x)^{1+\eta-\varepsilon}$ for all $x\geqslant100$ and any fixed $\varepsilon$, where…
Let $\ba=(a_1,a_2,\ldots,a_k)$, where $a_j \ (j=1,\ldots,k)$ are positive integers such that $a_1 \leq a_2 \leq \cdots \leq a_k$. Let $d(\ba;n)=\sum_{n_1^{a_1}\cdots n_k^{a_k}=n}1$ and $\Delta(\ba;x)$ be the error term of the summatory…
An improved estimate is given for $|\theta(x) -x|$, where $\theta(x) = \sum_{p\leq x} \log p$. Three applications are given: the first to arithmetic progressions that have points in common, the second to primes in short intervals, and the…
We improve existing estimates of moments of the Riemann zeta function. As a consequence, we are able to derive new estimates for the asymptotic behaviour of $\sum_{N \alpha \le x} \mathfrak{t}_k(\alpha)$, where $N$ stands for the norm of a…
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…
In this article, we have derived the following Leray-Trudinger type inequality on a bounded domain $\Omega$ in $\mathbb{R}^n $ containing the origin. \begin{align*} \displaystyle{\sup_{u\in W^{1,n}_{0}(\Omega), I_{n}[u,\Omega,R]\leq…
In various contexts in mathematical physics one needs to compute the logarithm of a positive unbounded operator. Examples include the von Neumann entropy of a density matrix and the flow of operators with the modular Hamiltonian in the…
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…
We introduce approximation functions of $li(x)$ for all $x\ge e$: (1) $\displaystyle li_{\underline{\omega},\alpha}(x) = \frac{x}{\log(x)}\left( \alpha\frac{\underline{m}!}{\log^{\underline{m}}(x)} +…
Let $[q] = \{0,1,\ldots,q-1\}$, let $\Delta[q]$ denote the simplex of probability measures on $[q]$, and let $\gamma$ denote the Lebesgue measure normalized on $\Delta[q]$. We prove that for any symmetric monotone function $f \colon[q]^n…
For any $a\in\mathbb{C}$, the zeros of $\zeta(s)-a$, denoted by $\rho_a=\beta_a+i\gamma_a$, are called $a$-points of the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$. In this paper, we reformulate some basic results about the $a$-points of $\zeta(s)$…
A uniformly bounded complete orthonormal system of functions $\Theta =\{ \theta_n\}_{n=1}^{\infty},$ $ \|\theta_n\|_{L^\infty_{[0,1]} } \leq M $ is constructed such that $\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} a_{n}\theta_{n}$ converges almost everywhere on…
In this paper, a new method for investigating Dirichlet's divisor problem is developed. For this purpose, integer points under the graph of a hyperbola are studied. Since many investigations in this direction focus on direct estimates of…
We consider the zeta function $\zeta_\Omega$ for the Dirichlet-to-Neumann operator of a simply connected planar domain $\Omega$ bounded by a smooth closed curve of perimeter $2\pi$. We prove that $\zeta_\Omega''(0)\ge…
The paper develops the result of second Thomae theorem in hyperelliptic case. The main formula, called general Thomae formula, provides expressions for values at zero of the lowest non-vanishing derivatives of theta functions with singular…
We study the average value of the divisor function $\tau(n)$ for $n\le x$ with $n \equiv a \bmod q$. The divisor function is known to be evenly distributed over arithmetic progressions for all $q$ that are a little smaller than $x^{2/3}$.…
We improve unconditional estimates on $\Delta_k(x)$, the remainder term of the generalised divisor function, for large $k$. In particular, we show that $\Delta_k(x) \ll x^{1 - 1.889k^{-2/3}}$ for all sufficiently large fixed $k$.
The bivariate series $\theta (q,x):=\sum _{j=0}^{\infty}q^{j(j+1)/2}x^j$ %(where $(q,x)\in {\bf C}^2$, $|q|<1$) defines a {\em partial theta function}. For fixed $q$ ($|q|<1$), $\theta (q,.)$ is an entire function. For $q\in (-1,0)$ the…
