Let $s\_2(x)$ denote the number of digits "$1$" in a binary expansion of any $x \in \mathbb{N}$. We study the mean distribution $\mu\_a$ of the quantity $s\_2(x+a)-s\_2(x)$ for a fixed positive integer $a$.It is shown that solutions of the…

We prove simple theorems concerning the maximal order of a large class of multiplicative functions. As an application, we determine the maximal orders of certain functions of the type $\sigma_A(n)= \sum_{d\in A(n)} d$, where A(n) is a…

An algorithm is presented to compute isolated values of the divisor summatory function in O(n^(1/3)) time and O (log n) space. The algorithm is elementary and uses a geometric approach of successive approximation combined with coordinate…

In this paper, we study non-trivial upper bounds for the sum $\sum \limits_{n \in S} |\lambda_f(n)|$ where $f$ is a normalized Maass eigencusp form for the full modular group, $\lambda_f(n)$ is the $n$th normalized Fourier coefficient of…

The product $s_\mu s_\nu$ of two Schur functions is one of the most famous examples of a Schur-positive function, i.e. a symmetric function which, when written as a linear combination of Schur functions, has all positive coefficients. We…

We consider the asymptotic expansion of the Wright function \[W_{\lambda,\mu}(z)=\sum_{n=0}^\infty\frac{z^n}{n! \Gamma(\lambda n+\mu)}\qquad (\lambda>-1)\] for large (positive and negative) variable and large parameter $\mu$. The analysis…

Let $f(n)$ denote a multiplicative function with range $\{-1,0,1\}$, and let $F(x) = \sum_{n\leq x} f(n)$. Then $F(x)/\sqrt{x} = a\sqrt{x} + b + E(x)$, where $a$ and $b$ are constants and $E(x)$ is an error term that either tends to $0$ in…
