We study a weighted divisor function $\mathop{{\sum}'}\limits_{mn\leq x}\cos(2\pi m\theta_1)\sin(2\pi n\theta_2)$, where $\theta_i (0<\theta_i<1)$ is a rational number. By connecting it with the divisor problem with congruence conditions,…

We discuss the Pointwise Ergodic Theorem for the Gaussian divisor function $d(n)$, that is, for a measure preserving $\mathbb Z[i]$ action $T$, the limit $$\lim_{N\rightarrow \infty} \frac{1}{D(N)} \sum _{\mathscr{N} (n) \leq N} d(n)…

For a fixed integer $k$, we define the multiplicative function \[D_{k,\omega}(n) := \frac{d(n)}{k^{\omega(n)}}, \]where $d(n)$ is the divisor function and $\omega (n)$ is the number of distinct prime divisors of $n$. The main purpose of…

We study the extent to which divisors of a typical integer $n$ are concentrated. In particular, defining the Erd\H{o}s-Hooley $\Delta$-function by $\Delta(n) := \max_t \# \{d | n, \log d \in [t,t+1]\}$, we show that $\Delta(n) \geq (\log…

Given an m-dimensional compact submanifold $\mathbf{M}$ of Euclidean space $\mathbf{R}^s$, the concept of mean location of a distribution, related to mean or expected vector, is generalized to more general $\mathbf{R}^s$-valued functionals…

Let $\tau_k(n)$ be the $k$-th divisor function. In this paper, we derive an asymptotic formula for the sum $$ \sum_{1\leq n_1,n_2, \dots, n_{\ell}\leq X^{\frac{1}{r}} \atop 1\leq n_{\ell+1}\le X^{\frac{1}{s}}}\tau_k(n_1^r+n_2^r+\dots…

We improve existing estimates of moments of the Riemann zeta function. As a consequence, we are able to derive new estimates for the asymptotic behaviour of $\sum_{N \alpha \le x} \mathfrak{t}_k(\alpha)$, where $N$ stands for the norm of a…

We generalize the property that Riemann sums of a continuous function corresponding to equidistant subdivision of an interval converge to the integral of that function, and we give some applications of this generalization.

We study the double sum $S_\varepsilon(X)$$=$$\sum_{\substack{d,e\le X}}\frac{\mu(d)\mu(e)}{[d,e]^{1+\varepsilon}}$, which converges even in the case $\varepsilon=0$, where $\mu$ denotes the M\"obius function and $[d,e]$ is the least common…
