A composite number $n$ is called a Lehmer number when $\phi(n) | n - 1$, where $\phi$ is the Euler totient function. Lehmer's totient problem asks if there exist any composite numbers $n$ such that $\phi(n)| n-1$? No such numbers are known.…

Motivated by recent results, we study sums of the form $S_f(x) = \sum_{n\leq x} f\left(\left\lfloor\frac{x}{n}\right\rfloor \right)$, where $f$ is an arithmetic function and $\left\lfloor\cdot\right\rfloor$ denotes the greatest integer…
We define a parametric variant of generalized Euler sums and construct contour integration to give some explicit evaluations of these parametric Euler sums. In particular, we establish several explicit formulas of (Hurwitz) zeta functions,…

We connect Dedekind sums and some formulas for numerical semigroups.
We give an estimate for sums appearing in the Nyman-Beurling criterion for the Riemann Hypothesis. These sums contain the M\"obius function and are related to the imaginary part of the Estermann zeta function. The estimate is remarkably…
Euler evaluates the integrals in the title and recognizes a recursion between them, which he then uses to give continued fractions for the log and arctan. The paper is translated from Euler's Latin original into German.
We obtain Berry-Esseen type estimates for "nonconventional" expressions of the form $\xi_N=\frac 1{\sqrt N}\sum_{n=1}^N(F(X(q_1(n)),...,X(q_\ell(n)))-\bar F)$

By using exclusively real analysis, we give explicit estimates of some classical summatory functions involving the M\"obius function.
We consider summations over digamma and polygamma functions, often with summands of the form (\pm 1)^n\psi(n+p/q)/n^r and (\pm 1)^n\psi^{(m)} (n+p/q)/n^r, where m, p, q, and r are positive integers. We develop novel general integral…
In this paper, we consider sums related the floor function. We can improve some previous results for some special arithmetic functions considered by Bordell\'es [3], Stucky[9] and Liu-Wu-Yang [6]. We can also give a refined result for…
We give an estimate for sums appearing in the Nyman-Beurling criterion for the Riemann Hypothesis containing the M\"obius function. The estimate is remarkably sharp in comparison to estimates of other sums containing the M\"obius function.…
We present several sequences of Euler sums involving odd harmonic numbers. The calculational technique is based on proper two-valued integer functions, which allow to compute these sequences explicitly in terms of zeta values only.
Motivated by Euler-Goldbach and Shallit-Zikan theorems, we introduce zeta-one functions with infinite sums of $n^{s}\pm1$ as an analogy of the Riemann zeta function. Then we compute values of these functions at positive even integers by the…
The Euler--Maclaurin (EM) summation formula is used in many theoretical studies and numerical calculations. It approximates the sum $\sum_{k=0}^{n-1} f(k)$ of values of a function $f$ by a linear combination of a corresponding integral of…
