In this note, we show that there are many infinity positive integer values of $n$ in which, the following inequality holds $$ \left\lfloor{1/2}(\frac{(n+1)^2}{\log(n+1)}-\frac{n^2}{\log n})-\frac{\log^2 n}{\log\log…

Let $M(n)$ denote the number of distinct entries in the $n \times n$ multiplication table. The function $M(n)$ has been studied by Erd\H{o}s, Tenenbaum, Ford, and others, but the asymptotic behaviour of $M(n)$ as $n \to \infty$ is not known…

Let $f(n)$ be a multiplicative function satisfying $|f(n)|\leq 1$, $q$ $(\leq N^2)$ be a positive integer and $a$ be an integer with $(a,\,q)=1$. In this paper, we shall prove that $$\sum_{\substack{n\leq N\\ (n,\,q)=1}}f(n)e({a\bar{n}\over…

We investigate the sums $\sum_{n\le X, (n,q)=1}\frac{\mu(n)}{n^s}\log^k\left(\frac{X}{n}\right)$, where $k\in\{0,1\}$, $s\in\mathbb{C}$, $\Re s>0$. Our goal is to obtain explicit asymptotic estimations for these quantities. To achieve this,…

Let $f$ be a completely multiplicative function that assumes values inside the unit disc. We show that if $\sum_{n<x} f(n) \ll x/(\log x)^A$, $x>2$, for some $A>2$, then either $f(p)$ is small on average or $f$ pretends to be $\mu(n)n^{it}$…

This paper is devoted to the study of $$ U_t(a,q):=\sum_{1\leq n_1<n_2<\cdots<n_t}\frac{q^{n_1+n_2+\cdots+n_t}}{(1+aq^{n_1}+q^{2n_1})(1+aq^{n_2}+q^{2n_2})\cdots(1+aq^{n_t}+q^{2n_t})} $$ when $a$ is one of $0, \pm 1, \pm2$. The idea builds…

Let $A$ be an infinite set of natural numbers. For $n\in \mathbb{N}$, let $r(A, n)$ denote the number of solutions of the equation $n=a+b$ with $a, b\in A, a\le b$. Let $|A(x)|$ be the number of integers in $A$ which are less than or equal…

In this paper we give a variant of the Robin inequality which states that $\frac{\sigma(n)}{n} \leq \frac{e^\gamma}{2} \log\log n + \frac{0.7398\cdots}{\log\log n}$ for any odd integer $n \geq 3$.

Aim of this article is to prove the inequality $n \sum_{i=1}^{n} a_ib_i \leq \sum_{i=1}^{n} a_i \sum_{i=1}^n b_i$ when $a_i$ are $n$ increasing positive real numbers and $b_i$ are $n$ decreasing real numbers. We also prove generalizations…

The partition function $p(n)$ and many of its related restricted partition functions have recently been shown independently to satisfy log-concavity: $p(n)^2 \geq p(n-1)p(n+1)$ for $n\geq 26$, and satisfy the inequality: $p(n)p(m) \geq…

Let $k$ be a positive real number, and let $M_k(q)$ be the sum of $|L(\tfrac12,\chi)|^{2k}$ over all non-principal characters to a given modulus $q$. We prove that $M_k(q)\ll_k \phi(q)(\log q)^{k^2}$ whenever $k$ is the reciprocal $n^{-1}$…
