Let $\gcd(m,n)$ denote the greatest common divisor of the positive integers $m$ and $n$, and let $\mu$ represent the M\" obius function. For any real number $x>5$, we define the summatory function of the M\" obius function involving the…
For integer $n\geqslant 1$ and real number $z\geqslant 1$, define $M(n,z):=\sum_{d|n,\,d\leqslant z}\mu(d)$ where $\mu$ denotes the M\"obius function. Put ${\cal L}(y):=\exp\left\{(\log y)^{3/5}/(\log_2y)^{1/5}\right\}$ $(y\geqslant 3)$. We…
Let $M(x)=\sum_{1\le n\le x}\mu(n)$ where $\mu$ is the M\"obius function. It is well-known that the Riemann Hypothesis is equivalent to the assertion that $M(x)=O(x^{1/2+\epsilon})$ for all $\epsilon>0$. There has been much interest and…
Let $\mu(n)$ be the M\"{o}bius function and $e(\alpha)=e^{2\pi i\alpha}$. In this paper, we study upper bounds of the classical sum $$S(x,\alpha):=\sum_{1\leq n\leq x}\mu(n)e(\alpha n).$$ We can improve some classical results of Baker and…
We study in an explicit manner the partial sums of the multiplicative inverse of the Riemann zeta function and its derivative.
We introduce a general result relating "short averages" of a multiplicative function to "long averages" which are well understood. This result has several consequences. First, for the M\"obius function we show that there are cancellations…
Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis we establish an upper bound for the sum of the M{\" o}bius function up to $x$. Our method is based on estimating the frequency with which intervals of a given length can contain an unusual number of ordinates…
Let $\mu(n)$ denote the M\"obius function, define $M(x)= \sum_{n\leq x}^{}\mu (n)$. The main result of this paper is to prove that \begin{equation*} \displaystyle\lim_{x \to +\infty}\frac{M(x)}{x}=0 \end{equation*} which is equivalent to…
We obtained the probabilities for the values of the M\"obius function for arbitrary numbers and found that the asymptotic densities of the squarefree integers among the odd and even numbers are $8/\pi^2$ and $4/\pi^2$, respectively. It is…
We prove an inversion formula for summatory arithmetic functions. As an application, we obtain an arithmetic relationship between summatory Piltz divisor functions and a sum of the M\"obius function over certain integers, denoted by…
We study higher uniformity properties of the von Mangoldt function $\Lambda$, the M\"obius function $\mu$, and the divisor functions $d_k$ on short intervals $(x,x+H]$ for almost all $x \in [X, 2X]$. Let $\Lambda^\sharp$ and $d_k^\sharp$ be…
The average properties of the well-known Subset Sum Problem can be studied by the means of its randomised version, where we are given a target value $z$, random variables $X_1, \ldots, X_n$, and an error parameter $\varepsilon > 0$, and we…
We give an estimate for sums appearing in the Nyman-Beurling criterion for the Riemann Hypothesis. These sums contain the M\"obius function and are related to the imaginary part of the Estermann zeta function. The estimate is remarkably…
We discuss the multiplicity of the non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta-function and the summatory function $M(x)$ of the M\"obius function. The purpose of this paper is to consider two open problems under some conjectures. One is that…
In this paper, we can show that \begin{align*} S_{\Lambda}(x)=\sum_{1\leq n\leq x}\Lambda \left(\left[\frac{x}{n}\right]\right)= \sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{\Lambda(n)}{n(n+1)}x +O\left(x^{7/15+1/195+\varepsilon}\right), \end{align*} where…
We provide numerical bounds for $\Sigma(X)=\sum_{\substack{d_1,d_2\le X}}\frac{\mu(d_1)\mu(d_2)}{[d_1,d_2]}$. We show in particular that $0\le \Sigma(X)\le 17/25$ for every $X\ge2$.
We show that $$ \sum_{n\neq m}\frac{\mu(n)\mu(m)}{nm}E_{X}\left(\{nx\}\{mx\}\right)=-\frac{9}{2\pi^{2}}+O\left(\frac{1}{X}\right), $$ where $x$ is uniformly distributed in $[0,X]$ with $X\in \mathbb{N}$, $E_{X}(.)$ denotes the expected…
In this paper I introduce a criterion for the Riemann hypothesis, and then using that I prove $\sum_{k=1}^\infty \mu(k)/k^s$ converges for $\Re(s) > \frac{1}{2}$. I use a step function $\nu(x) = 2\{x/2\} - \{x\}$ for the Dirichlet eta…
We show that the M\"obius function of an interval in a permutation poset where the lower bound is sum (resp. skew) indecomposable depends solely on the sum (resp. skew) indecomposable permutations contained in the upper bound, and that this…
We study higher uniformity properties of the M\"obius function $\mu$, the von Mangoldt function $\Lambda$, and the divisor functions $d_k$ on short intervals $(X,X+H]$ with $X^{\theta+\varepsilon} \leq H \leq X^{1-\varepsilon}$ for a fixed…
