Let $a\geq 1, b\geq 0$ and $k\geq 2$ be any given integers. It has been proven that there exist infinitely many natural numbers $m$ such that sum of divisors of $m$ is a perfect $k$th power. We try to generalize this result when the values…

Ramanujan investigated maximal order for the number of divisors function by introducing some notion such as (superior) highly composite numbers. He also studied maximal order for other arithmetic functions including the sum of powers of…

The discrete Fourier transform of the greatest common divisor is a multiplicative function that generalises both the gcd-sum function and Euler's totient function. On the one hand it is the Dirichlet convolution of the identity with…

In this article, we present relations for the Euler totient function $\varphi(n)$ and the number of divisors $\tau(n)$ in terms of finite sums of integer parts of rational numbers or greatest common divisors of pairs of integers. Some of…

We deduce asymptotic formulas for the alternating sums $\sum_{n\le x} (-1)^{n-1} f(n)$ and $\sum_{n\le x} (-1)^{n-1} \frac1{f(n)}$, where $f$ is one of the following classical multiplicative arithmetic functions: Euler's totient function,…

Let $1=d_{1}<d_{2}< \cdots < d_{\tau(n)}=n$ denote the ordered sequence of the positive divisors of an integer $n$. We are interested in estimating the arithmetic function $$ V(n) := \prod_{1 \le i < j \le \tau(n)}(d_{j}-d_{i}) \quad (n \ge…

We study the Dirichlet series $F_b(s)=\sum_{n=1}^\infty d_b(n)n^{-s}$, where $d_b(n)$ is the sum of the base-$b$ digits of the integer $n$, and $G_b(s)=\sum_{n=1}^\infty S_b(n)n^{-s}$, where $S_b(n)=\sum_{m=1}^{n-1}d_b(m)$ is the summatory…

We study sums of arithmetic functions, defined on Gaussian integers and taken over those pairs of integers whose coordinates give rise to a singular system.

The proposed system of integer functions is logically fully independent from the traditional mathematical analysis of the real functions, but there is a well-defined mutual correspondence between the two disciplines. The system of integer…

In 1920, P. A. MacMahon generalized the (classical) notion of divisor sums by relating it to the theory of partitions of integers. In this paper, we extend the idea of MacMahon. In doing so we reveal a wealth of divisibility theorems and…

A century ago, P. A. MacMahon introduced two families of generating functions, $$ \sum_{1\leq n_1<n_2<\cdots<n_t}\prod_{k=1}^t\frac{q^{n_k}}{(1-q^{n_k})^2} \quad\text{ and } \sum_{\substack{1\leq n_1<n_2<\cdots<n_t\\…

The primary objective of this paper is to employ methods from analytic number theory to investigate the mean value properties of a composite function involving the Dirichlet divisor function and a generalized minimal power function.…

Let $\tau$ denote the divisor function, and $f$ be any multiplicative function that satisfies some mild hypotheses. We establish the asymptotic formula or non-trivial upper bound for the shifted convolution sum $\sum_{n \leq…

We define an $f$-restricted partition $p_f(n,k)$ of fixed length $k$ given by the bivariate generating series \begin{align*} Q_f(z,u) \coloneqq 1+\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\sum_{k=1}^{\infty} p_f(n,k) u^kz^n…

Ingham studied two types of convolution sums of the divisor function, namely the shifted convolution sum $\sum_{n \le N} d(n) d(n+h)$ and the additive convolution sum $\sum_{n < N} d(n) d(N-n)$ for integers $N, h$ and derived their…

We prove a central limit theorem for the joint distribution of $s_q(A_jn)$, $1\le j \le d$, where $s_q$ denotes the sum-of-digits function in base~$q$ and the $A_j$'s are positive integers relatively prime to $q$. We do this in fact within…

We survey general properties of multiplicative arithmetic functions of several variables and related convolutions, including the Dirichlet convolution and the unitary convolution. We introduce and investigate a new convolution, called gcd…

A numeral system is an infinite sequence of different closed normal $\lambda$-terms intended to code the integers in $\lambda$-calculus. H. Barendregt has shown that if we can represent, for a numeral system, the functions : Successor,…

For a nonempty finite set $A$ of positive integers, let $\gcd\left(A\right)$ denote the greatest common divisor of the elements of $A$. Let $f\left(n\right)$ and $\Phi\left(n\right)$ denote, respectively, the number of subsets $A$ of…

Let $d(n)$ be the divisor function and denote by $[t]$ the integral part of the real number $t$. In this paper, we prove that $$\sum_{n\leq x^{1/c}}d\left(\left[\frac{x}{n^c}\right]\right)=d_cx^{1/c}+\mathcal{O}_{\varepsilon,c}…
