Abstract

In this paper, we find asymptotic formula for the following sum with explicit error term: Mx(g1,g2,g3)=1xnxg1(F1(n))g2(F2(n))g3(F3(n)),M_{x}(g_{1}, g_{2}, g_3)=\frac{1}{x}\sum_{n\le x}g_{1}(F_1(n))g_{2}(F_2(n))g_{3} (F_3(n)), where F1(x),F2(x)F_1(x), F_2(x) and F3(x)F_3(x) are polynomials with integer coefficients and g1,g2,g3g_1,g_2,g_3 are multilpicative functions with modulus less than or equal to 1.1. Moreover, under some assumption on g1,g2,g_1,g_2, we prove that as x,x\rightarrow \infty, 1xnxg1(n+3)g2(n+2)μ(n+1)=o(1)\frac{1}{x}\sum\limits_{n\le x}g_1(n+3)g_2(n+2)\mu(n+1)=o(1) and assuming 22-point Chowla type conjecture we show that as x,x\rightarrow \infty, 1xnxg1(n+3)μ(n+2)μ(n+1)=o(1).\frac{1}{x}\sum\limits_{n\le x}g_1(n+3)\mu(n+2)\mu(n+1)=o(1).
