Several results are obtained concerning the function $\Delta_k(x)$, which represents the error term in the general Dirichlet divisor problem. These include the estimates for the integral of this function, as well as for the corresponding…

Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis, Soundararajan showed that $\displaystyle{\int_{0}^{T} \vert \zeta(1/2 + it)\vert^{2k} \ll T(\log T)^{k^2 + \epsilon}}$ . His method was used by Chandee to obtain upper bounds for shifted moments of the…

The objective of this paper is to obtain asymptotic results for shifted sums of multiplicative functions of the form $g \ast 1$, where the function $g$ satisfies the Ramanujan conjecture and has conjectured upper bounds on square moments of…

We consider negative moments of quadratic Dirichlet $L$--functions over function fields. Summing over monic square-free polynomials of degree $2g+1$ in $\mathbb{F}_q[x]$, we obtain an asymptotic formula for the $k^{\text{th}}$ shifted…

The constraints obtained by several authors (Eke et al. 1998; Henry 2000) on the estimated values of $\Omega_{\rm m}$, $n$ and $\sigma_8$ are revisited in the light of recent theoretical developments: 1) new theoretical mass functions; 2) a…

In this paper we consider error sums of the form \[\sum_{m=0}^{\infty} \varepsilon_m\Big( \,b_m\alpha - \frac{a_m}{c_m}\,\Big) \,,\] where $\alpha$ is a real number, $a_m$, $b_m$, $c_m$ are integers, and $\varepsilon_m=1$ or $\varepsilon_m…

We calculate the triple correlations for the truncated divisor sum $\lambda_{R}(n)$. The $\lambda_{R}(n)$'s behave over certain averages just as the prime counting von Mangoldt function $\Lambda(n)$ does or is conjectured to do. We also…

There has recently been some interest in optimizing the error term in the asymptotic for the fourth moment of Dirichlet L-functions and a closely related mixed moment of L-functions involving automorphic L-functions twisted by Dirichlet…

Recently, Dixit et al. established a very elegant generalization of Hardy's Theorem concerning the infinitude of zeros that the Riemann zeta function possesses at its critical line. By introducing a general transformation formula for the…

We examine oscillations in a number of sums of arithmetic functions involving $\Omega(n)$, the total number of prime factors of $n$, and $\omega(n)$, the number of distinct prime factors of $n$. In particular, we examine oscillations in…

We study Birkhoff sums over rotations (series of the form $\sum_{r=1}^{N}\phi(r\alpha)$), in which the summed function $\phi$ may be unbounded at the origin. Estimates of these sums have been of significant interest and application in pure…

For a fixed $z\in\mathbb{C}$ and a fixed $k\in\mathbb{N}$, let $\sigma_{z}^{(k)}(n)$ denote the sum of $z$-th powers of those divisors $d$ of $n$ whose $k$-th powers also divide $n$. This arithmetic function is a simultaneous generalization…

The main aim of this paper is to study an analogue of the generalized divisor function in a number field $\mathbb{K}$, namely, $\sigma_{\mathbb{K},\alpha}(n)$. The Dirichlet series associated to this function is…

Let $Z(t)=\chi^{-1/2}(1/2+it)\zeta(1/2+it)=e^{i\theta(t)}\zeta(1/2+it)$ be Hardy's function and $g(n)$ be the $n$-th Gram points defined by $\theta(g(n))=\pi n$. Titchmarsh proved that $\sum_{n \leq N} Z(g(2n)) =2N+O(N^{3/4}\log^{3/4}N) $…

This paper highlights the emergence of the Omega sequence in number theory and its connection with the emergence of a new prime number, and also highlights its theoretical applications for Lucas-Lehmer primality test, and Euclid-Euler…

Classical boundary Hardy inequality, that goes back to 1988, states that if $1 < p < \infty, \ ~\Omega$ is bounded Lipschitz domain, then for all $u \in C^{\infty}_{c}(\Omega)$, $$\int_{\Omega} \frac{|u(x)|^{p}}{\delta^{p}_{\Omega}(x)} dx…

We discuss the main stages of development of the error calculation since the beginning of XIX-th century by insisting on what prefigures the use of Dirichlet forms and emphasizing the mathematical properties that make the use of Dirichlet…
