Given a minimal model of an elliptic curve, $E/K$, over a finite extension, $K$, of ${\mathbb Q}_{p}$ for any rational prime, $p$, and any point $P \in E(K)$ of infinite order, we determine precisely $\min \left( v \left( \phi_{n}(P)…

We prove that for all constants $a\in\N$, $b\in\Z$, $c,d\in\R$, $c\neq 0$, the fractions $\phi(an+b)/(cn+d)$ lie dense in the interval $]0,D]$ (respectively $[D,0[$ if $c<0$), where $D=a\phi(\gcd(a,b))/(c\gcd(a,b))$. This interval is the…

Let $M(x)$ denote the largest cardinality of a subset of $\{n \in \mathbf{N}: n \leq x\}$ on which the Euler totient function $\varphi(n)$ is non-decreasing. We show that $M(x) = (1+O(\frac{(\log\log x)^5}{\log x})) \pi(x)$ for all $x \geq…

This paper provides a bridge between two active areas of research, the spectrum (set of element orders) and the power graph of a finite group. The order sequence of a finite group $G$ is the list of orders of elements of the group, arranged…

Given a number field $K$ of degree $n_K$ and with absolute discriminant $d_K$, we obtain an explicit bound for the number $N_K(T)$ of non-trivial zeros (counted with multiplicity), with height at most $T$, of the Dedekind zeta function…

The paper deals with the problem of ideals of $H^\infty$: describe increasing functions $\phi\ge 0$ such that for all bounded analytic functions $f_1,f_2,...,f_n, \tau$ in the unit disc $D$ the condition $|\tau(z) | \le \phi(\sum_k…

Assuming the validity of Dickson's conjecture, we show that the set $\mathcal{V}$ of values of the Euler's totient function $\varphi$ contains arbitrarily large arithmetic progressions with common difference 4. This leads to the question of…

We fix a gap in our proof of an upper bound for the number of positive integers $n\le x$ for which the Euler function $\varphi(n)$ has all prime factors at most $y$. While doing this we obtain a stronger, likely best-possible result.

Let $\{f_k\}$ be a sequence of entire functions that are real valued on the real-line. We study the expected number of real zeros of random sums of the form $P_n(z)=\sum_{k=0}^n\eta_k f_k(z)$, where $\{\eta_k\}$ are real valued…

We study the value distribution of the Sudler product $P_N(\alpha) := \prod_{n=1}^{N}\lvert2\sin(\pi n \alpha)\rvert$ for Lebesgue-almost every irrational $\alpha$. We show that for every non-decreasing function $\psi: (0,\infty) \to…

The classical theorems of Mittag-Leffler and Weierstrass show that when $\{\lambda_n\}$ is a sequence of distinct points in the open unit disk $\D$, with no accumulation points in $\D$, and $\{w_n\}$ is any sequence of complex numbers,…

If $N = {q^k}{n^2}$ is an odd perfect number, where $q$ is the Euler prime, then we show that $n < q$ is sufficient for Sorli's conjecture that $k = \nu_{q}(N) = 1$ to hold. We also prove that $q^k < 2/3{n^2}$, and that $I(q^k) < I(n)$,…

We provide a uniform bound on the partial sums of multiplicative functions under very general hypotheses. As an application, we give a nearly optimal estimate for the count of $n \le x$ for which the Alladi-Erd\H{o}s function $A(n) =…

Let $ x\geq 1 $ be a large number, let $ [x]=x-\{x\} $ be the largest integer function, and let $ \varphi(n)$ be the Euler totient function. The asymptotic formula for the new finite sum over the primes $ \sum_{p\leq…

We say that the order of an algebraic number $A$ is the minimum of positive integers $k$ such that $A^k$ is rational. In this paper, we show that the number of algebraic numbers $A$ with order $k$ such that \[ A,\ A^A,\ A^{A^A},\ \ldots \]…

Let phi denote Euler's phi function. For a fixed odd prime we give an asymptotic series expansion in the sense of Poincare for the number E_q(x) of n<=x such that q does not divide phi(n). Thereby we improve on a recent theorem of B.K.…

In this article, we investigate sparse subsets of the natural numbers and study the sparseness of some sets associated with the Euler's totient function $\phi$ via the property of `Banach Density'. These sets related to the totient function…

We examine the sums $S(k,\,n)$ of the $k-$th powers of the $\phi(n)$ integers $\alpha_1<\alpha_2<\cdots<\alpha_{\phi(n)}$ less than and prime to $n$ (Euler set) and prove a formula (new) for $S(3,\,n)$. If $n$ equals a prime $p$, we prove a…

A sharper estimate for the summatory Euler phi function $\sum_{n \leq x} \varphi(n)$ is presented in this work. It improves the established estimate in the current mathematical literature. In addition, an estimate for its reciprocal…

We reconsider the density functional theory of nonuniform classical fluids from the point of view of convex analysis. From the observation that the logarithm of the grand-partition function $\log \Xi [\phi]$ is a convex functional of the…
