We study the values of the M\"obius function $\mu$ of intervals in the containment poset of permutations. We construct a sequence of permutations $\pi_n$ of size $2n-2$ for which $\mu(1,\pi_n)$ is given by a polynomial in $n$ of degree 7.…

We obtain reasonably tight upper and lower bounds on the sum $\sum_{n \leqslant x} \varphi \left( \left\lfloor{x/n}\right\rfloor\right)$, involving the Euler functions $\varphi$ and the integer parts $\left\lfloor{x/n}\right\rfloor$ of the…

We obtain a functional Erd\H os-R\' enyi law of large numbers for "nonconventional" sums of the form $\Sig_n=\sum_{m=1}^nF(X_m,X_{2m},...,X_{\ell m})$ where $X_1,X_2,...$ is a sequence of exponentially fast $\psi$-mixing random vectors and…

In this paper, we introduce a new method for calculating fractional integrals and differentials. The method involves an equation that we have obtained from infinite applied integration by parts. The equation works for special class of…

In this paper we consider fractional higher-order stochastic differential equations of the form \begin{align*} \left( \mu + c_\alpha \frac{d^\alpha}{d(-t)^\alpha} \right)^\beta X(t) = \mathcal{E}(t) , \quad t\geq 0,\; \mu>0,\; \beta>0,\;…

Any function F : {0,...,N-1} -> {-1,1} such that F(x) can be computed from the binary digits of x using a bounded depth circuit is orthogonal to the Mobius function mu in the sense that E_{0 <= x <= N-1} mu(x)F(x) = o(1). The proof combines…

The main objective of this paper is to obtain some Gruss Like Inequalities using Pompeiu's mean value theorem on Conformable Fractional Calculus.

The purpose of this note is to prove an Euler-type formula for partitions of the M\"obius strip. This formula was introduced in our joint paper with R.~Kiwan, "Courant-sharp property for Dirichlet eigenfunctions on the M\"obius strip"…

Let $\ell\ge5$ be an odd prime and $j, s$ be positive integers. We study the distribution of the coefficients of integer and half-integral weight modular forms modulo odd positive integer $M$. As a consequence, we prove that for each…

We provide a uniform bound on the partial sums of multiplicative functions under very general hypotheses. As an application, we give a nearly optimal estimate for the count of $n \le x$ for which the Alladi-Erd\H{o}s function $A(n) =…

Let $k$ be a positive real number, and let $M_k(q)$ be the sum of $|L(\tfrac12,\chi)|^{2k}$ over all non-principal characters to a given modulus $q$. We prove that $M_k(q)\ll_k \phi(q)(\log q)^{k^2}$ whenever $k$ is the reciprocal $n^{-1}$…

Let $m$ be a positive integer and let $\rho(m,n)$ be the proportion of permutations of the symmetric group ${\rm Sym}(n)$ whose order is coprime to $m$. In 2002, Pouyanne proved that $\rho(n,m)n^{1-\frac{\phi(m)}{m}}\sim \kappa_m$ where…

We show that if a permutation $\pi$ contains two intervals of length 2, where one interval is an ascent and the other a descent, then the M\"{o}bius function $\mu[\pi]$ of the interval $[1,\pi]$ is zero. As a consequence, we show that the…
