The details for the construction of an explicit formula for the divisors function d(n) = #{d | n} are formalized in this article. This formula facilitates a unified approach to the investigation of the error terms of the divisor problem and…

We introduce a novel arithmetic function $w(n)$, a generalization of the Liouville function $\lambda(n)$, as the coefficients of a Dirichlet series. By spatially encoding information in a natural way about the distribution of prime factors…

Let $d(n)$ be the Dirichlet divisor function and $\Delta(x)$ denote the error term of the sum $\sum_{n\leqslant x}d(n)$ for a large real variable $x$. In this paper we focus on the sum $\sum_{p\leqslant x}\Delta^2(p)$, where $p$ runs over…

Summation arithmetic functions with asymptotically independent terms are studied in the paper, the limit of which is the law of normal distribution. Assertions about the asymptotic behavior of the indicated functions are proved.

Nguyen has shown that on averaging over $a=1,...,q$ the 3-fold divisor function has exponent of distribution 2/3, following \cite {banks}. We follow [2] which leads to stronger bounds.

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…

In the asymptotic analysis of regular sequences as defined by Allouche and Shallit, it is usually advisable to study their summatory function because the original sequence has a too fluctuating behaviour. It might be that the process of…

Let $ x\geq 1 $ be a large number, let $ [x]=x-\{x\} $ be the largest integer function, and let $ \sigma(n)$ be the sum of divisors function. This note presents the first proof of the asymptotic formula for the average order $ \sum_{p\leq…

We evaluate the asymptotic size of various sums of G\'al type, in particular $$S( \mathcal{M}):=\sum_{m,n\in\mathcal{M}} \sqrt{(m,n) \over [m,n]},$$ where $\mathcal{M}$ is a finite set of integers. Elaborating on methods recently developed…

We prove an asymptotic formula for the sum $\sum_{n \leq N} d(n^2 - 1)$, where $d(n)$ denotes the number of divisors of $n$. During the course of our proof, we also furnish an asymptotic formula for the sum $\sum_{d \leq N} g(d)$, where…

We define an S function as the sum of the asymptotic error terms of digamma function of an arithmetic series, $S(a) \equiv \sum_{n=1}^\infty \left[\ln\frac{n}{a} - \frac{a}{2n}-\psi\left(\frac{n}{a}\right)\right]$, and show a few properties…

A formal sum $\sum_n f(S_n)$ may be seen as the integral $\int f dN$ with respect to random point process $N(A)=|\{n:S_n\in A\}|$. We study its convergence beyond the well known context of Lebesgue integrable functions, admitting…
