The near orthgonality of certain $k$-vectors involving the Ramanujan sums were studied by E. Alkan in [J. Number Theory, 140:147--168 (2014)]. Here we undertake the study of similar vectors involving a generalization of the Ramanujan sums…

For two arithmetical functions $f$ and $g$ with absolutely convergent Ramanujan expansions, Murty and Saha have recently derived asymptotic formulas with error term for the convolution sum $\sum_{n \le N} f(n) g(n+h)$ under some suitable…

In his deathbed letter to Hardy, Ramanujan gave a vague definition of a mock modular function: at each root of unity its asymptotics matches the one of a modular form, though a choice of the modular function depends on the root of unity.…

The $j$th divisor function $d_j$, which counts the ordered factorisations of a positive integer into $j$ positive integer factors, is a very well-known arithmetic function; in particular, $d_2(n)$ gives the number of divisors of $n$.…

We investigate an arithmetic function representing a generalization of the gcd-sum function, considered by Kurokawa and Ochiai in 2009 in connection with the multivariable global Igusa zeta function for a finite cyclic group. We show that…

Given a suitable arithmetic function h, we investigate the average order of h as it ranges over the values taken by an integral binary form F. A general upper bound is obtained for this quantity, in which the dependence upon the…

Let $\gcd(d_{1},\ldots,d_{k})$ be the greatest common divisor of the positive integers $d_{1},\ldots,d_{k}$, for any integer $k\geq 2$, and let $\tau$ and $\mu$ denote the divisor function and the M\"{o}bius function, respectively. For an…

We study the triple convolution sum of the generalised divisor functions $$\sum_{n\leq x} d_k(n+h)d_l(n)d_m(n-h),$$ where $h \le x^{1-\epsilon}$ for any $\epsilon>0$ and $d_k(n)$ denotes the generalised divisor function which counts the…

We derive two new generalizations of the Busche-Ramanujan identities involving the multiple Dirichlet convolution of arithmetic functions of several variables. The proofs use formal multiple Dirichlet series and properties of symmetric…

In [arXiv:2212.04969], the authors stated some conjectures on the variance of certain sums of the divisor function $d_k(n)$ over number fields, which were inspired by analogous results over function fields proven in [arXiv:2107.01437].…

In this paper, we discuss a similar functional to that of a standard integral. The main difference is in its definition: instead of taking a sum, we are taking a product. It turns out this new "star-integral" may be written in terms of the…

This paper investigates Srinivasa Ramanujan's initial intuitive methodology for assigning the finite value -1/12 to the sum of the divergent infinite series of all positive integers. We systematically examine Ramanujan's initial method,…

Counting functions are constructed for sums of integers raised to a fixed positive rational power. That is, given values formed by $u_1^{j/k} + u_2^{j/k} + ... + u_l^{j/k}$, $u_i \in \mathbb{Z}^+$, the number of values less than or equal to…

We use a specialization of Ramanujan's ${}_1\psi_1$ summation to give a new proof of a recent formula of Hickerson and Mortenson which expands a special family of Hecke-type double sums in terms of Appell-Lerch sums and theta functions.

In the former part of this paper, we give functional equations for Barnes multiple zeta-functions and consider some relevant results. In particular, we show that Ramanujan's classical formula for the Riemann zeta values can be derived from…

Let $[a,b]\subset\mathbb{R}$ be a non empty and non singleton closed interval and $P=\{a=x_0<\cdots<x_n=b\}$ is a partition of it. Then $f:I\to\mathbb{R}$ is said to be a function of $r$-bounded variation, if the expression…

In this paper, we establish the following two identities involving the Gamma function and Bernoulli polynomials, namely $$ \sum_{k\leq x}\frac{1}{k^s} \sum_{j=1}^{k^s}\log\Gamma\left(\frac{j}{k^s}\right) \sum_{\substack{d|k \\…

For an arithmetical function $f$, its Ramanujan expansion is a series expansion in the form $f(n)=\sum\limits_{k=1}^{\infty}a(k) c_k(n)$ where $a(k)$ are complex numbers and $c_k(n):= \sum\limits_{\substack{m=1\\(m, k)=1}}^{k}e^{\frac{2\pi…

An arithmetical function $f$ is said to admit a \emph{Cohen-Ramanujan expansion} $f(n) := \sum\limits_{r}\widehat{f}(r)c_r^s(n)$, if the series on the right hand side converges for suitable complex numbers $\widehat{f}(r)$. Here $c_r^s(n)$…
