Let $d(n)$ and $d^{\ast}(n)$ be the numbers of divisors and the numbers of unitary divisors of the integer $n\geq1$. In this paper, we prove that \[ \underset{n\in\mathcal{B}}{\underset{n\leq x}{\sum}}\frac{d(n)}{d^{\ast}% (n)}=\frac{16\pi%…
Let $A_f(1,n)$ be the normalized Fourier coefficients of a $GL(3)$ Maass cusp form $f$ and let $a_g(n)$ be the normalized Fourier coefficients of a $GL(2)$ cusp form $g$. Let $\lambda(n)$ be either $A_f(1,n)$ or the triple divisor function…
We study the average shifted convolution sum $$ B(H,N):= \frac{1}{H} \sum_{h \sim H} \sum_{n \sim N} A_{\pi_1}(n)\, A_{\pi_2}(n+h), $$ where $A_{\pi_i}(n)$ denotes the Fourier coefficients of a Hecke--Maass cusp form $\pi_i$ for…
In an earlier paper, we studied solutions g to convolution equations of the form a_d*g^{*d}+a_{d-1}*g^{*(d-1)}+...+a_1*g+a_0=0, where a_0, ..., a_d are given arithmetic functions associated with Dirichlet series which converge on some right…
Asymptotics deviation probabilities of the sum S n = X 1 + $\times$ $\times$ $\times$ + X n of independent and identically distributed real-valued random variables have been extensively investigated, in particular when X 1 is not…
In this paper, we use a modular form approach to evaluate the convolution sums $\sum_{l+42m=n}\sigma (l)\sigma (m)$, $\sum_{2l+21m=n}\sigma (l)\sigma (m),$ $\sum_{3l+14m=n}\sigma (l)\sigma (m)$ and $\sum_{6l+7m=n}\sigma (l)\sigma (m) $ for…
Let $s(\cdot)$ denote the sum-of-proper-divisors function, that is, $s(n) = \sum_{d\mid n,~d<n}d$. Erd\H{o}s-Granville-Pomerance-Spiro conjectured that for any set $\mathcal{A}$ of asymptotic density zero, the preimage set…
The class of Lambert series generating functions (LGFs) denoted by $L_{\alpha}(q)$ formally enumerate the generalized sum-of-divisors functions, $\sigma_{\alpha}(n) = \sum_{d|n} d^{\alpha}$, for all integers $n \geq 1$ and fixed real-valued…
Let $m,n\in \Bbb{N}$. We represent the additive subgroups of the ring $\Bbb{Z}_m \times \Bbb{Z}_n$, which are also (unital) subrings, and deduce explicit formulas for $N^{(s)}(m,n)$ and $N^{(us)}(m,n)$, denoting the number of subrings of…
We define a new kind of classical digamma function, and establish its some fundamental identities. Then we apply the formulas obtained, and extend tools developed by Flajolet and Salvy to study more general Euler type sums. The main results…
We focus on three pages in Ramanujan's lost notebook, pages 336, 335, and 332, in decreasing order of attention. On page 336, Ramanujan proposes two identities, but the formulas are wrong -- each is vitiated by divergent series. We…
In this paper we prove new bounds for sums of convex or concave functions. Specifically, we prove that for all $A,B \subseteq \mathbb R$ finite sets, and for all $f,g$ convex or concave functions, we have $$|A + B|^{38}|f(A) + g(B)|^{38}…
A simple integration by parts and telescopic cancellation leads to a rigorous derivation of the first 2 terms for the error in Ramanujan's asymptotic series for the nth partial sum of the harmonic series. Then Kummer's transformation gives…
We show that double sums of the form $$ \sum_{i,j=-n} ^{n} |i^sj^t(i^k-j^k)^\beta| \binom {2n} {n+i} \binom {2n} {n+j} $$ can always be expressed in terms of a linear combination of just four functions, namely $\binom {4n}{2n}$, ${\binom…
In this paper, we apply the Dirichlet convolution method to \begin{equation*} T_{k}(x)=\sum_{n \leq x} d_{k}(n), \end{equation*} for $k\ge 3$, where $d_{k}(n)$ is the number of ways to represent $n$ as a product of $k$ positive integer…
We evaluate the convolution sum $\displaystyle W_{a,b}(n):= \sum_{al+bm=n} \hspace{-3mm} \sigma(l) \sigma(m)$ for $(a,b)=(1,28), (4,7), (2,7)$ for all positive integers $n$. We use a modular form approach. We also re-evaluate the known sums…

We give a detailed study of the discrete Fourier transform (DFT) of $r$-even arithmetic functions, which form a subspace of the space of $r$-periodic arithmetic functions. We consider the DFT of sequences of $r$-even functions, their mean…
