We use elementary arguments to prove results on the order of magnitude of certain sums concerning the gcd's and lcm's of $k$ positive integers, where $k\ge 2$ is fixed. We refine and generalize an asymptotic formula of Bordell\`{e}s (2007),…

Let $n$ and $k$ be positive integers. We denote by $v_2(n)$ the 2-adic valuation of $n$. The Stirling numbers of the first kind, denoted by $s(n,k)$, counts the number of permutations of $n$ elements with $k$ disjoint cycles. In recent…
