The Dirichlet form is a generalization of the Laplacian, heavily used in the study of many diffusion-like processes. In this paper we present a nonstandard representation theorem for the Dirichlet form, showing that the usual Dirichlet form…

We obtain asymptotic formulas for the $2k$th moments of partially smoothed divisor sums of the M\"obius function. When $2k$ is small compared with $A$, the level of smoothing, then the main contribution to the moments come from integers…

The objective of this paper is to obtain asymptotic results for shifted sums of multiplicative functions of the form $g \ast 1$, where the function $g$ satisfies the Ramanujan conjecture and has conjectured upper bounds on square moments of…

We estimate double sums $$ S_\chi(a, I, G) = \sum_{x \in I} \sum_{\lambda \in G} \chi(x + a\lambda), \qquad 1\le a < p-1, $$ with a multiplicative character $\chi$ modulo $p$ where $I= \{1,\ldots, H\}$ and $G$ is a subgroup of order $T$ of…

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…

We extend the results obtained by E. Ntienjem to all positive integers. Let $\EuFrak{N}$ be the subset of $\mathbb{N}$ consisting of $\,2^{\nu}\mho$, where $\nu$ is in $\{0,1,2,3\}$ and $\mho$ is a squarefree finite product of distinct odd…

We consider the problem of $\Omega$ bounds for the partial sums of a modified character, \textit{i.e.}, a completely multiplicative function $f$ such that $f(p)=\chi(p)$ for all but a finite number of primes $p$, where $\chi$ is a primitive…
