In this article we consider the completely multiplicative sequences $(a_n)_{n \in \mathbf{N}}$ defined on a field $\mathbf{K}$ and satisfying $$\sum_{p| p \leq n, a_p \neq 1, p \in \mathbf{P}}\frac{1}{p}<\infty,$$ where $\mathbf{P}$ is the…

We prove that any $q$-automatic completely multiplicative function $f:\mathbb{N}\to\mathbb{C}$ essentially coincides with a Dirichlet character. This answers a question of J. P. Allouche and L. Goldmakher and confirms a conjecture of J.…

We prove that any $q$-automatic multiplicative function $f:\mathbb{N}\to\mathbb{C}$ either essentially coincides with a Dirichlet character, or vanishes on all sufficiently large primes. This confirms a strong form of a conjecture of J.…

We show that any automatic multiplicative sequence either coincides with a Dirichlet character or is identically zero when restricted to integers not divisible by small primes. This answers a question of Bell, Bruin and Coons. A similar…

This article consists to give a necessary and sufficient condition of the meromorphic continuity of Dirichlet series defined as $\sum_{x\in \mathbf{N}^n} \frac{a_{x}}{P(x)^s}$, Where $a_{x}$ is a $q$-automatic sequence of $n$ parameters and…

We establish several results concerning the expected general phenomenon that, given a multiplicative function $f:\mathbb{N}\to\mathbb{C}$, the values of $f(n)$ and $f(n+a)$ are "generally" independent unless $f$ is of a "special" form.…

We obtain a complete classification of complex-valued sequences which are both multiplicative and automatic.

We fully classify completely multiplicative sequences which are given by generalised polynomial formulae, and obtain a similar result for (not necessarily completely) multiplicative sequences under the additional restriction that the…

We prove that every Mahler series, over a field of characteristic $0$, with multiplicative coefficients is regular in the sense of Allouche and Shallit. We also obtain an explicit characterization of such series. This yields a joint…

We prove that a multiplicative function $f:\mathbb{N}\to\mathbb{C}$ is Toeplitz if and only if there are a Dirichlet character $\chi$ and a finite subset $F$ of prime numbers such that $f(n)=\chi(n)$ for each $n$ which is coprime to all…

Let $x$ be an $m$-sequence, a maximal length sequence produced by a linear feedback shift register. We show that $x$ has maximal subword complexity function in the sense of Allouche and Shallit. We show that this implies that the…

Let $\mathcal{H}_\infty$ be the set of all ordinary Dirichlet series $D=\sum_n a_n n^{-s}$ representing bounded holomorphic functions on the right half plane. A multiplicative sequence $(b_n)$ of complex numbers is said to be an…

The Fibonacci numbers satisfy the famous recurrence $F_n = F_{n - 1} + F_{n - 2}$. The theory of C-finite sequences ensures that the Fibonacci numbers whose indices are divisible by $m$, namely $F_{mn}$, satisfy a similar recurrence for…

A sequence $s(n)$ of integers is MC-finite if for every $m \in \mathbb{N}^+$ the sequence $s^m(n) = s(n) \bmod{m}$ is ultimately periodic. We discuss various ways of proving and disproving MC-finiteness. Our examples are mostly taken from…

Let $\mathcal{A}$ and $\mathcal{B}$ be two algebras and let $n$ be a positive integer. A linear mapping $D:\mathcal{A} \rightarrow \mathcal{B}$ is called a \emph{strongly generalized derivation of order $n$} if there exist families of…

We show that the digraph of a nondeterministic finite automaton witnessing the automatic complexity of a word can always be taken to be planar. In the case of total transition functions studied by Shallit and Wang, planarity can fail. Let…

An integer sequence $(a_n)_{n \in \mathbb{N}}$ is \emph{MC-finite} if for all $m$, the sequence $a_n \bmod m$ is eventually periodic. There are MC-finite sequences $(a_n)_{n \in \mathbb{N}}$ such that the function $F: (m,n) \mapsto a_n…

This note deals with the relationship between the abscissas of simple, uniform and absolute convergence for the Dirichlet series $f(s) = \sum_{n=1}^\infty a_n n^{-s}$, when the coefficients $a_n$ are either multiplicative or completely…

We study ternary sequences associated with a multidimensional continued fraction algorithm introduced by the first author. The algorithm is defined by two matrices and we show that it is measurably isomorphic to the shift on the set…

Define {\em the Liouville function for $A$}, a subset of the primes $P$, by $\lambda_{A}(n) =(-1)^{\Omega_A(n)}$ where $\Omega_A(n)$ is the number of prime factors of $n$ coming from $A$ counting multiplicity. For the traditional Liouville…
