We study the double sum $S_\varepsilon(X)$$=$$\sum_{\substack{d,e\le X}}\frac{\mu(d)\mu(e)}{[d,e]^{1+\varepsilon}}$, which converges even in the case $\varepsilon=0$, where $\mu$ denotes the M\"obius function and $[d,e]$ is the least common…

We show that $$ \sum_{n\neq m}\frac{\mu(n)\mu(m)}{nm}E_{X}\left(\{nx\}\{mx\}\right)=-\frac{9}{2\pi^{2}}+O\left(\frac{1}{X}\right), $$ where $x$ is uniformly distributed in $[0,X]$ with $X\in \mathbb{N}$, $E_{X}(.)$ denotes the expected…

By using exclusively real analysis, we give explicit estimates of some classical summatory functions involving the M\"obius function.

We investigate the sums $\sum_{n\le X, (n,q)=1}\frac{\mu(n)}{n^s}\log^k\left(\frac{X}{n}\right)$, where $k\in\{0,1\}$, $s\in\mathbb{C}$, $\Re s>0$. Our goal is to obtain explicit asymptotic estimations for these quantities. To achieve this,…

Let $\mu(n)$ denote the M\"obius function, define $M(x)= \sum_{n\leq x}^{}\mu (n)$. The main result of this paper is to prove that \begin{equation*} \displaystyle\lim_{x \to +\infty}\frac{M(x)}{x}=0 \end{equation*} which is equivalent to…

The Mertens function is defined as $M(x) = \sum_{n \leq x} \mu(n)$, where $\mu(n)$ is the M\"obius function. The Mertens conjecture states $|M(x)/\sqrt{x}| < 1$ for $x > 1$, which was proven false in 1985 by showing $\liminf M(x)/\sqrt{x} <…

Let $M(x)=\sum_{1\le n\le x}\mu(n)$ where $\mu$ is the M\"obius function. It is well-known that the Riemann Hypothesis is equivalent to the assertion that $M(x)=O(x^{1/2+\epsilon})$ for all $\epsilon>0$. There has been much interest and…

The Mertens function, $M(x) := \sum_{n \leq x} \mu(n)$, is defined as the summatory function of the classical M\"obius function. The Dirichlet inverse function $g(n) := (\omega+1)^{-1}(n)$ is defined in terms of the shifted strongly…

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}…

We prove that $|\sum_{n \leq x} \mu(n) | \leq x/160\,383$ for all $x\geq 8.4 \times 10^9$ thus improving the record for this type of estimates which was $|\sum_{n \leq x} \mu(n) | \leq x/4345$ for all $x\geq 2\,160\,535$ and was due to…

We improve on all the results of [13] by incorporating the finite range computations performed since then by several authors. Thus we have \begin{align*} \Bigg|\sum_{n\le X}\mu(n)\Bigg| &\le \frac{0.006688\,X}{\log X},&&\text{for } X\ge…

The orders of magnitudes of the summatory Liouville function L(x), and the summatory Mobius function M(x), are unconditionally proven to be of the forms L(x) = O(x^.5)), and M(x) = O(x^.5) respectively. Furthermore, applications of these…

We show that, for the M\"obius function $\mu(n)$, we have $$ \sum_{x < n\leq x+x^{\theta}}\mu(n)=o(x^{\theta}) $$ for any $\theta>0.55$. This improves on a result of Ramachandra from 1976, which is valid for $\theta>7/12$. Ramachandra's…
