We say that a function $\alpha(x)$ belongs to the set ${\bf A}^{(\gamma)}$ if it has an asymptotic expansion of the form $\alpha(x)\sim \sum^\infty_{i=0}\alpha_ix^{\gamma-i}$ as $x\to\infty$, which can be differentiated term by term…

We prove that if $f(n)$ is a Steinhaus or Rademacher random multiplicative function, there almost surely exist arbitrarily large values of $x$ for which $|\sum_{n \leq x} f(n)| \geq \sqrt{x} (\log\log x)^{1/4+o(1)}$. This is the first such…

Let $\gcd(k,j)$ denote the greatest common divisor of the integers $k$ and $j$, and let $r$ be any fixed positive integer. Define $$ M_r(x; f) := \sum_{k\leq x}\frac{1}{k^{r+1}}\sum_{j=1}^{k}j^{r}f(\gcd(j,k)) $$ for any large real number…
In this paper, we study some graph theoretical properties of two derivative Euler Phi function set-graphs. For the Euler Phi function $\phi(n)$, $n\in \mathbb{N}$, the set $S_\phi(n) =\{i:\gcd(i,n)=1, 1\leq i \leq n\}$ and the vertex set is…
