If a multiplicative function $f$ satisfies $f(a^2+b^2+c^2) = f(a)^2+f(b)^2+f(c)^2$ for all positive integers $a$, $b$, and $c$, then $f$ is an identity function.

P. V. Chung showed that there are many multiplicative functions $f$ which satisfy $f(m^2+n^2) = f(m^2)+f(n^2)$ for all positive integers $m$ and $n$. In this article, we show that if more than $2$ squares in the additive condition are…

Fix $k \ge 3$. If a multiplicative function $f$ satisfies \[ f(x_1+x_2+\dots+x_k) = f(x_1) + f(x_2) + \dots + f(x_k) \] for arbitrary positive triangular numbers $x_1, x_2, \dots, x_k$, then $f$ is the identity function. This extends Chung…

Let $k$ be an integer greater than or equal $4$. We show that if a multiplicative function $f$ satisfies \[ f(x_1^2 + x_2^2 + \dots + x_k^2) = f(x_1)^2 + f(x_2)^2 + \dots + f(x_k)^2 \] for all positive integers $x_i$'s, then $f$ is the…

Let $f$ be a multiplicative function which satisfies \[ f(a^2+b^2+c^2+d^2) = f(a^2+b^2)+f(c^2+d^2) \] for positive integers $a$, $b$, $c$, and $d$. We show that $f$ is the identity function provided that $f(3)\,f(11) \ne 0$. Otherwise,…

If a multiplicative function $f$ is commutable with a quadratic form $x^2+xy+y^2$, i.e., \[ f(x^2+xy+y^2) = f(x)^2 + f(x)\,f(y) + f(y)^2, \] then $f$ is the identity function. In other hand, if $f$ is commutable with a quadratic form…

Let $n_0$ be 1 or 3. If a multiplicative function $f$ satisfies $f(p+q-n_0) = f(p)+f(q)-f(n_0)$ for all primes $p$ and $q$, then $f$ is the identity function $f(n)=n$ or a constant function $f(n)=1$.

Let $\mathtt{PRIMES}$ be the set of all primes. We show that a multiplicative function which satisfies \[ f(p+q-2) = f(p) + f(q) - f(2) \text{ for }p,q \in \mathtt{PRIMES} \] is one of the following: \begin{enumerate} \item $f$ is the…

A characterization of multiplicative (and additive) arithmetical functions is given. Using this characterization, we show that the group of multiplicative arithmetical functions is isomorphic to the group of additive arithmetical functions.

In this note, we characterize all functions $f : \mathbb{N} \rightarrow \mathbb{C}$ such that $f(x_1^2+ \cdots + x_k^2)=f(x_1)^2+ \cdots + f(x_k)^2$, where $k \geq 3$ and $x_1, \cdots, x_k$ are positive integers.

Let $f$ be a positive multiplicative function and let $k\geq 2$ be an integer. We prove that if the prime values $f(p)$ converge to $1$ sufficiently slowly as $p\rightarrow +\infty$, in the sense that $\sum_{p}|f(p)-1|=\infty$, there exists…

We consider cubic polynomials f(z)=z^3+az+b defined over the function field C(L), with a marked point of period N and multiplier L. In the case N=1, there are infinitely many such objects, and in the case N>2, only finitely many. The case…

An arithmetic function $f$ is Leibniz-additive if there is a completely multiplicative function $h_f$, i.e., $h_f(1)=1$ and $h_f(mn)=h_f(m)h_f(n)$ for all positive integers $m$ and $n$, satisfying $$ f(mn)=f(m)h_f(n)+f(n)h_f(m) $$ for all…

Identity theorem for analytic complex functions says that a function is uniquely defined by its values on a set that contains a density point. The paper presents sufficient conditions for classes of real analytic functions that ensures…

We call a set of positive integers closed under taking unitary divisors a unitary ideal. It can be regarded as a simplicial complex. Moreover, a multiplicative arithmetical function on such a set corresponds to a function on the simplicial…

A unitary divisor $c$ of a positive integer $n$ is a positive divisor of $n$ that is relatively prime to $\displaystyle{\frac{n}{c}}$. For any integer $k$, the function $\sigma_k^*$ is a multiplicative arithmetic function defined so that…

We first introduce the arithmetic subderivative of a positive integer with respect to a non-empty set of primes. This notion generalizes the concepts of the arithmetic derivative and arithmetic partial derivative. More generally, we then…

Let $K$ be a field of characteristic 0, $f:\mathbb{N}\to K$ be a multiplicative function, and $F(z)=\sum_{n\geq 1} f(n)z^n\in K[[z]]$ be algebraic over $K(z)$. Then either there is a natural number $k$ and a periodic multiplicative function…

Let $PD(\mathbb{R})$ be the family of continuous positive definite functions on $\mathbb{R}$. For an integer $n>1$, a $f\in PD(\mathbb{R})$ is called $n$-divisible if there is $g\in PD(\mathbb{R})$ such that $g^n=f$. Some properties of…

This paper contains an account of arbitrary cubic function fields of characteristic three. We define a standard form for an arbitrary cubic curve and consider its function field. By considering an integral basis for the maximal order of…
