On Ramanujan-type Congruences for Multiplicative Functions

Abstract

The study of Ramanujan-type congruences for functions specific to additive number theory has a long and rich history. Motivated by recent connections between divisor sums and overpartitions via congruences in arithmetic progressions, we investigate the existence and classification of Ramanujan-type congruences for functions in multiplicative number theory.
