Abstract

Let Δ(x)\Delta(x) denote the error term in the classical Dirichlet divisor problem, and let the modified error term in the divisor problem be Δ(x)=Δ(x)+2Δ(2x)12Δ(4x)\Delta^*(x) = -\Delta(x) + 2\Delta(2x) - \frac{1}{2}\Delta(4x). We show that TT+HΔ(t2π)ζ(1/2+it)2dt    HT1/6log7/2T(T2/3+εH=H(T)T), \int_T^{T+H}\Delta^*\bigl(\frac{t}{2\pi}\bigr)|\zeta(1/2+it)|^2dt \;\ll\; HT^{1/6}\log^{7/2}T \quad(T^{2/3+\varepsilon} \le H = H(T) \le T), 0TΔ(t)ζ(1/2+it)2dt    T9/8(logT)5/2, \int_0^T\Delta(t)|\zeta(1/2+it)|^2dt \;\ll\; T^{9/8}(\log T)^{5/2}, and obtain asymptotic formulae for 0T(Δ(t2π))2ζ(1/2+it)2dt,0T(Δ(t2π))3ζ(1/2+it)2dt. \int_0^T{\Bigl(\Delta^*\bigl(\frac{t}{2\pi}\bigr)\Bigr)}^2 |\zeta(1/2+it)|^2dt,\quad \int_0^T{\Bigl(\Delta^*\bigl(\frac{t}{2\pi}\bigr)\Bigr)}^3|\zeta(1/2+it)|^2dt. The importance of the Δ\Delta^*-function comes from the fact that it is the analogue of E(T)E(T), the error term in the mean square formula for ζ(1/2+it)2|\zeta(1/2+it)|^2. We also show, if E(T):=E(T)2πΔ(T/(2π))E^*(T) := E(T) - 2\pi \Delta^*(T/(2\pi)), 0TE(t)Ej(t)ζ(1/2+it)2dt  j,ε  T7/6+j/4+ε(j=1,2,3). \int_0^T E^*(t)E^j(t)|\zeta(1/2+it)|^2dt \; \ll_{j,\varepsilon}\; T^{7/6+j/4+\varepsilon}\quad(j= 1,2,3).
