This paper is concerned with the relationship of $y$-smooth integers and de Bruijn's approximation $\Lambda(x,y)$. Under the Riemann hypothesis, Saias proved that the count of $y$-smooth integers up to $x$, $\Psi(x,y)$, is asymptotic to…

We estimate the sizes of the sumset A + A and the productset A $\cdot$ A in the special case that A = S (x, y), the set of positive integers n less than or equal to x, free of prime factors exceeding y.

A natural number $n$ is $y$-smooth if the greatest prime factor of $n$ does not exceed $y$. Let $s_{1}$ and $s_{2}$ are $y$-smooth numbers. We consider sums of smooth squares of the binary Titchmarsh divisor problem and give asymptotic…

Euler totient function $\phi(n)$ plays a central role in number theory and is applied in areas such as cryptography. In this paper, we study iterations of the totient function. We first prove that for any integer $n>2$, iteratively applying…

We study the nonlinear diffusion equation $ u_t=\Delta\phi(u) $ on general Euclidean domains, with homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions. We assume that $ \phi^\prime(u) $ is bounded from below by $ |u|^{m_1-1} $ for small $ |u| $ and by…

We consider the problem of estimating smooth integrated functionals of a monotone nonincreasing density $f$ on $[0,\infty)$ using the nonparametric maximum likelihood based plug-in estimator. We find the exact asymptotic distribution of…

Elliott and Halberstam proved that $\sum_{p<n} 2^{\omega(n-p)}$ is asymptotic to $\phi(n)$. In analogy to the Erd\H{o}s--Kac Theorem, Elliott conjectured that if one restricts the summation to primes $p$ such that $\omega(n-p)\le 2 \log…

We are interested in the ``smoothest'' averaging that can be achieved by convolving functions $f \in \ell^2(\mathbb{Z})$ with an averaging function $u$. More precisely, suppose $u:\{-n, \ldots, n\} \to \mathbb{R}$ is a symmetric function…

We present an algorithm to invert the Euler function $\phi(m)$. The algorithm, for a given $n \geq 1$, in polynomial time ``on average'', finds the set $\Psi(n)$ of all solutions $m$ to $\phi(m) = n$. In fact, in the worst case, $\Psi(n)$…

Let $I(n) = \frac{\psi(\phi(n))}{\phi(\psi(n))}$ and $K(n) = \frac{\psi(\phi(n))}{\phi(\phi(n))}$, where $\phi(n)$ is Euler's function and $\psi(n)$ is Dedekind's arithmetic function. We obtain the maximal order of $I(n)$, as well as the…

Let $p$ be a prime number, $k\ge 0$ and $f$ be a class of arithmetic functions satisfying some simple conditions. In this short paper, we study the asymptotical behaviour of summation function $$\psi_{f,k}(x):=\sum_{n\le x}\Lambda…

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 find two-sides estimates for the best uniform approximations of classes of convolutions of $2\pi$-periodic functions from unit ball of the space $L_p, 1 \le p <\infty,$ with fixed kernels, modules of Fourier coefficients of which satisfy…

A nonempty subset A of {1,2,...,n} is called primitive if gcd(A)=1. Let f(n) and f_k(n) denote, respectively, the number of primitive subsets and the number of primitive subsets of cardinality k of {1,2,...,n}. Recursion formulas and…

In this paper, we will consider $E$-type singularities which are Arnol'd type. We provide invariant conditions for a sufficiently smooth functions to have singularities of type $E_k (6\le k\le 8)$. We show the functions can be reduced to…

Let F be nonnegative, convex and smooth off a compact set K. We prove that continuous local minimisers of convex functionals are "very weak" viscosity solutions in the sense of Juutinen-Lindqvist of the highly singular Euler-Lagrange PDE…

Let $\mathbb{F}_{q}$ be a finite field with $q$ elements and $\mathbb{F}_{q}[x]$ the ring of polynomials over $\mathbb{F}_{q}$. Let $l(x), k(x)$ be coprime polynomials in $\mathbb{F}_{q}[x]$ and $\Phi(k)$ the Euler function in…

Formulas for stable differentiation of piecewise-smooth functions are given. The data are noisy values of these functions. The locations of discontinuity points and the sizes of the jumps across these points are not assumed known, but found…

Let $(X,\omega)$ be a compact K\"{a}hler manifold of dimension $n$, and fix $1\leq m\leq n.$ We prove that the complex Hessian equation $(\omega+dd^c\varphi)^m\wedge \omega^{n-m}=f\omega^n$, with $0<f\in \mathcal{C}^{\infty}(X)$ has a…

In 2000 Deaconescu raised a question whether there exists a composite $n$ for which $S_2(n)|\phi(n)-1$, where $\phi(n)$ is Euler's function and $S_2(n)$ is Schemmel's totient function. In this paper we prove that any such $n$ is odd,…
