Let $\left[x\right]$ be the largest integer not exceeding $x$. For $0<\theta \leq 1$, let $\pi_{\theta}(x)$ denote the number of integers $n$ with $1 \leq n \leq x^{\theta}$ such that $\left[\frac{x}{n}\right]$ is prime and…

In [3] Bege introduced the generalized Apostol's Mobius functions. In this paper we are presenting new properties of this functions. By introducing the special set of k-free numbers we have obtained some asymptotic formulas for the partial…

Best possible bounds are obtained for the concentration function of an additive arithmetic function on sequences of shifted primes.

The Mertens' first theorem gives us the following asymptotic formula \begin{equation*} \sum_{\substack{p\leq x\\ p~prime}}\frac{lnp}{p}=lnx+O(1), \end{equation*} and the Mertens' second theorem indicates that there exists a constant…

In this paper, we will prove the non-trivial bound for the weighted average version of shifted convolution sum for $GL(3)\times GL(2)$, i.e. for any $\epsilon >0$ and $X^{1/4+\delta} \leq H \leq X$ with $\delta >0$, \[…

The twin prime conjecture asserts that there are infinitely many pairs of primes that differ by two. While recent advances have improved our understanding of bounded prime gaps, the conjecture remains unresolved. This paper refines the…

Let $f$ be a positive multiplicative function and let $k\geq 2$ be an integer. We prove that if the prime values $f(p)$ converge to $1$ sufficiently slowly as $p\rightarrow +\infty$, in the sense that $\sum_{p}|f(p)-1|=\infty$, there exists…

We provide examples of multiplicative functions $f$ supported on the $k$-free integers such that at primes $f(p)=\pm 1$ and such that the partial sums of $f$ up to $x$ are $o(x^{1/k})$. Further, if we assume the Generalized Riemann…

Let $f(n)$ be a random completely multiplicative function such that $f(p) = \pm 1$ with probabilities $1/2$ independently at each prime. We study the conditional probability, given that $f(p) = 1$ for all $p < y$, that all partial sums of…

We provide examples of multiplicative functions $f$ supported on the squarefree integers, such that on primes $f(p)=\pm1$ and such that $M_f(x):=\sum_{n\leq x} f(n)=o(\sqrt{x})$. Further, by assuming the Riemann hypothesis (RH) we can go…

When restricted to some non-negative multiplicative function, say f, bounded on primes and that vanishes on non square-free integers, our result provides us with an asymptotic for $\sum_{n \le X}f(n)/n$ with error term $O((\log…

Improving and extending recent results of the author, we conditionally estimate exponential sums with Dirichlet coefficients of L-functions, both over all integers and over all primes in an interval. In particular, we establish new…

Let $\mu(n)$ be the M\"{o}bius function and $e(\alpha)=e^{2\pi i\alpha}$. In this paper, we study upper bounds of the classical sum $$S(x,\alpha):=\sum_{1\leq n\leq x}\mu(n)e(\alpha n).$$ We can improve some classical results of Baker and…

Let $\mathcal{P}$ be the set of the primes. We consider a class of random multiplicative functions $f$ supported on the squarefree integers, such that $\{f(p)\}_{p\in\mathcal{P}}$ form a sequence of $\pm1$ valued independent random…

Several large-scale machine learning tasks, such as data summarization, can be approached by maximizing functions that satisfy submodularity. These optimization problems often involve complex side constraints, imposed by the underlying…

Let $\gcd(m,n)$ denote the greatest common divisor of the positive integers $m$ and $n$, and let $\mu$ represent the M\" obius function. For any real number $x>5$, we define the summatory function of the M\" obius function involving the…

Let $N$ be a large prime and let $c > 1/4$. We prove that if $f$ is a $\pm 1$-valued completely multiplicative function, such that the exponential sums $$ S_f(a) := \sum_{1 \leq n < N} f(n) e(na/N), \quad a \pmod{N} $$ satisfy the ``Gauss…

In this paper, we estimate the shifted convolution sum \[\sum_{n\geqslant1}\lambda_1(1,n)\lambda_2(n+h)V\Big(\frac{n}{X}\Big),\] where $V$ is a smooth function with support in $[1,2]$, $1\leqslant|h|\leqslant X$, $\lambda_1(1,n)$ and…

The Landau-Selberg-Delange (LSD) method gives an asymptotic formula for the partial sums of a multiplicative function $f$ whose prime values are $\alpha$ on average. In the literature, the average is usually taken to be $\alpha$ with a very…

We consider the class $\Sigma(p)$ of univalent meromorphic functions $f$ on $\ID$ having simple pole at $z=p\in[0,1)$ with residue 1. Let $\Sigma_k(p)$ be the class of functions in $\Sigma(p)$ which have $k$-quasiconformal extension to the…
