In this paper, we shall establish a rather general asymptotic formula in short intervals for a classe of arithmetic functions and announce two applications about the distribution of divisors of square-full numbers and integers representable…

In this paper we prove the mean values of some multiplicative functions connected with the divisor function on the short interval of summation.

We give an asymptotic formula for the divisor sum $\sum_{c<n\leq N}\tau\left((n-b)(n-c)\right)$ for integers $b<c$ of the same parity. Interestingly, the coefficient of the main term does not depend on the discriminant as long as it is a…

Let $F({\bf x})={\bf x}^tQ_{\bf x}+\mathbf{b}^t{\bf x}+c\in\mathbb{Z}[{\bf x}]$ be a quadratic polynomial in $\ell (\ge 3 )$ variables ${\bf x} =(x_{1},...,x_{\ell})$, where $F({\bf x})$ is positive when ${\bf x}\in\mathbb{R}_{\ge…

We prove a simple formula for the main value of $r$-even functions and give applications of it. Considering the generalized Ramanujan sums $c_A(n,r)$ involving regular systems $A$ of divisors we show that it is not possible to develop a…

We give asymptotic estimates for the mean number of divisors of integers without small prime factors, integers with bounded ratios of consecutive divisors, and for practical numbers. In the last case, this confirms a conjecture of…

In this paper we want to prove some formulas listed by S. Ramanujan in his paper "Modular equations and approximations to $\pi$" \cite{24} with an elementary method.

We deduce asymptotic formulas for the sums $\sum_{n_1,\ldots,n_r\le x} f(n_1\cdots n_r)$ and $\sum_{n_1,\ldots,n_r\le x} f([n_1\cdots n_r])$, where $r\ge 2$ is a fixed integer, $[n_1,\ldots,n_r]$ stands for the least common multiple of the…

In a 1916 paper, Ramanujan studied the additive convolution $S_{a, b}(n)$ of sum-of-divisors functions $\sigma_a(n)$ and $\sigma_b(n)$, and proved an asymptotic formula for it when $a$ and $b$ are positive odd integers. He also conjectured…

We revisit several entries from Ramanujan's notebooks which follow from more elementary arguments than a first glance may suggest. Our goal is to demystify these results through more accessible proofs, while also shining some light on the…

A simple proof of Ramanujan's formula for the Fourier transform of the square of the modulus of the Gamma function restricted to a vertical line in the right half-plane is given. The result is extended to vertical lines in the left…

Let $c_q(n)$ denote the Ramanujan sum modulo $q$, and let $x$ and $y$ be large reals, with $x = o(y)$. We obtain asymptotic formulas for the sums $$\sum_{n \le y}(\sum_{q \le x} c_q(n))^k \qquad (k = 1, 2).$$

Assuming an averaged form of Mertens' conjecture and that the ordinates of the non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function are linearly independent over the rationals, we analyze the finer structure of the terms in a well-known formula…

By simple elementary method,we obtain with ease,a highly simple expression for the remainder term of the divisor problem and use it to obtain an Euler-Maclaurin analogue of summation involving divisor function.We also obtain a relation…

We give an elementary proof of some identities that express the squares of Riemann zeta function at integer points in terms of the series involving hyperbolic functions, digamma function, Bernoulli numbers etc. In this version, inaccuracies…

In the study of Ramanujan sums, the so-called regular $A$-function is a set-valued multiplicative function that tracks certain subsets of the divisor sets of natural numbers. McCarthy provided a generalization of the Ramanujan sum using…

Let $d(n)$ be the divisor function. In 1916, S. Ramanujan stated but without proof that $$\sum_{n\leq x}d^2(n)=xP(\log x)+E(x), $$ where $P(y)$ is a cubic polynomial in $y$ and $$ E(x)=O(x^{{3\over 5}+\epsilon}), $$ where $\epsilon$ is a…

We give a generalization of a Ramanujan's exercise for high school students. Our results can be regarded as a variation of the factorization formula of $x^{n} - 1$.

We give a simple proof and a multivariable generalization of an identity due to E. Alkan concerning a weighted average of the Ramanujan sums. We deduce identities for other weighted averages of the Ramanujan sums with weights concerning…

We show that the absolute convergence of a Ramanujan expansion does not guarantee the convergence of its real variable generalization, which is obtained by replacing the integer argument in the Ramanujan sums with a real number. We also…
