Let $ x\geq 1 $ be a large number, let $ [x]=x-\{x\} $ be the largest integer function, and let $ \varphi(n)$ be the Euler totient function. The asymptotic formula for the new finite sum over the primes $ \sum_{p\leq…

We deduce an asymptotic formula with error term for the sum $\sum_{n_1,\ldots,n_k \le x} f([n_1,\ldots, n_k])$, where $[n_1,\ldots, n_k]$ stands for the least common multiple of the positive integers $n_1,\ldots, n_k$ ($k\ge 2$) and $f$…

Let phi denote Euler's phi function. For a fixed odd prime we give an asymptotic series expansion in the sense of Poincare for the number E_q(x) of n<=x such that q does not divide phi(n). Thereby we improve on a recent theorem of B.K.…

To tackle difficulties for theoretical studies in situations involving nonsmooth functions, we propose a sequence of infinitely differentiable functions to approximate the nonsmooth function under consideration. A rate of approximation is…

A natural measure of smoothness of a Boolean function is its sensitivity (the largest number of Hamming neighbors of a point which differ from it in function value). The structure of smooth or equivalently low-sensitivity functions is still…

This note contains some asymptotic formulas for the sums of various residue classes of Euler's phi-function.

We consider the problem of estimating an unknown function f* and its partial derivatives from a noisy data set of n observations, where we make no assumptions about f* except that it is smooth in the sense that it has square integrable…

Motivated by studies in accelerator physics this paper computes the asymptotic behavior of the series $\displaystyle \sum_{k=1}^N \varphi(k) I_N\left(\frac{1}{k}\right)$, where $\varphi(k)$ is Euler's Totient function and $\displaystyle…

We show that for some $k\le 3570$ and all $k$ with $442720643463713815200|k$, the equation $\phi(n)=\phi(n+k)$ has infinitely many solutions $n$, where $\phi$ is Euler's totient function. We also show that for a positive proportion of all…

Fix integers a_1,...,a_d satisfying a_1 + ... + a_d = 0. Suppose that f : Z_N -> [0,1], where N is prime. We show that if f is ``smooth enough'' then we can bound from below the sum of f(x_1)...f(x_d) over all solutions (x_1,...,x_d) in Z_N…

We give asymptotic formulas for some average values of the Euler function on shifted smooth numbers. The result is based on various estimates on the distribution of smooth numbers in arithmetic progressions which are due to A. Granville and…

Let $\Psi(x,y)$ denote the count of $y$-smooth numbers below $x$ and $P(n)$ denote the largest prime factor of $n$. We prove that for $f$ a Steinhaus random multiplicative function, the partial sums over $y$-smooth numbers always enjoy…

The Euler's totient function $ \varphi(n) $ counts the positive integers up to a given integer $ n$ that are relatively prime to $ n $. We solve a problem due to Lehmer that there is no composite number $ n $ such that $ \varphi(n)\mid n-1…

Let $\phi(n)$ be the Euler totient function and $\sigma(n)$ denote the sum of divisors of $n$. In this note, we obtain explicit upper bounds on the number of positive integers $n\leq x$ such that $\phi(\sigma(n)) > cn$ for any $c>0$. This…

It is known that there are infinitely many solutions to the inequality \phi(30n+1)<\phi(30n), where \phi is the familiar Euler totient function. However, there are no solutions with n<20,000,000, and computing a solution would seem to…

We study a variant of Newton's algorithm applied to under-determined systems of non-smooth equations. The notion of regularity employed in our work is based on Newton differentiability, which generalizes semi-smoothness. The classic notion…

Imposing some conditions on derivatives of the known functions, using the Fiber Contraction Theorem we prove the existence of $C^1$ solutions of a class of iterative functional equations which involves iterates of the unknown functions and…

Given positive integers $a_1,\ldots,a_k$, we prove that the set of primes $p$ such that $p \not\equiv 1 \bmod{a_i}$ for $i=1,\ldots,k$ admits asymptotic density relative to the set of all primes which is at least $\prod_{i=1}^k…

We use partial zeta functions to analyse the asymptotic behaviour of certain smooth arithmetical sums over smooth k-free integers.

In this paper we provide a reconstruction algorithm for piecewise-smooth functions with a-priori known smoothness and number of discontinuities, from their Fourier coefficients, posessing the maximal possible asymptotic rate of convergence…
