We investigate the analogues, in $\mathbb{F}_q[t]$, of highly composite numbers and the maximum order of the divisor function, as studied by Ramanujan. In particular, we determine a family of highly composite polynomials which is not too…

In this manuscript, various properties of the Ramanujan integral $I_R(x)$, defined as \begin{align*} I_R(x) = \int_0^\infty e^{-xt} \dfrac{dt}{t(\pi^2 + \log^2 t)}, \quad x>0, \end{align*} are investigated, including its monotonicity,…

Let ${\mathfrak S}_n$ denote the symmetric group with $n$ letters, and $g(n)$ the maximal order of an element of ${\mathfrak S}_n$. If the standard factorization of $M$ into primes is $M=q_1^{\al_1}q_2^{\al_2}... q_k^{\al_k}$, we define…

For n=1,2,3,... let p_n be the n-th prime. We mainly show that p_n>n+sum_{k=1}^n p_k/k for all n>124, and sum_{k=1}^n kp_k<n^2p_n/3 for all n>30.

Let $\taue_k \colon \Z\to\Z$ be a multiplicative function such that $ \taue_k(p^a) = \sum_{d_1... d_k=a} 1 $. In the present paper we introduce generalizations of $\taue_k$ over the ring of Gaussian integers $\Zi$. We determine their…

Let $\Bbb Z$ and $\Bbb Z^+$ be the set of integers and the set of positive integers, respectively. For $a,b,c,d,n\in\Bbb Z^+$ let $t(a,b,c,d;n)$ be the number of representations of $n$ by $ax(x+1)/2+by(y+1)/2+cz(z+1)/2+dw(w+1)/2$…

Let $d,n$ be positive integers and $S$ be an arbitrary set of positive integers. We say that $d$ is an $S$-divisor of $n$ if $d|n$ and gcd $(d,n/d)\in S$. Consider the $S$-convolution of arithmetical functions given by (1.1), where the sum…

We use methods of combinatorial number theory to prove that, for each $n>1$ and any prime $p$, some homotopy group $\pi_i(SU(n))$ contains an element of order $p^{n-1+ord_p([n/p]!)}$, where $ord_p(m)$ denotes the largest integer $\alpha$…

Let $p_{-t}(n)$ denote the number of partitions of $n$ into $t$ colors. In analogy with Ramanujan's work on the partition function, Lin recently proved in \cite{Lin} that $p_{-3}(11n+7)\equiv0\pmod{11}$ for every integer $n$. Such…

We study a generalized class of weighted $k$-regular partitions defined by \[ \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} c_{k, r_1, r_2}(n) q^n = \prod_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{(1 - q^{nk})^{r_1}}{(1 - q^n)^{r_2}}, \] which extends the classical $k$-regular partition…

Let N_{a,b}(x) count the number of primes p<=x with p dividing a^k+b^k for some k>=1. It is known that asymptotically N_{a,b}(x) grows like c(a,b)x/log x for some rational number c(a,b) that depends in a rather intricate way on a and b. A…

In this paper we study linear correlations of the divisor function tau(n) = sum_{d|n} 1 using methods developed by Green and Tao. For example, we obtain an asymptotic for sum_{n,d} tau(n) tau(n+d) ... tau(n+ (k-1)d).

Inspired by a Zudilin-Zhao's supercongruences pattern related to Ramanujan-like series for $1/\pi^k$, we conjecture a kind of $p$-adic expansions.

First we give general formulas for proving real or complex Ramanujan series for $1/\pi$. Then, as an example, we apply them for providing complete proofs of the fastest series for $1/\pi$ due to Ramanujan using Russell and Weber modular…

The type $\tau$($\alpha$) of an irrational number $\alpha$ measures the extent to which rational numbers can closely approximate $\alpha$. More precisely, $\tau$($\alpha$) is the infimum over those t$\in$R for which…

Ramanujan's congruence $p(5k+4) \equiv 0 \pmod 5$ led Dyson \cite{dyson} to conjecture the existence of a measure "rank" such that $p(5k+4)$ partitions of $5k+4$ could be divided into sub-classes with equal cardinality to give a direct…

For two arithmetical functions $f$ and $g$, we study the convolution sum of the form $\sum_{n \le N} f(n) g(n+h)$ in the context of its asymptotic formula with explicit error terms. Here we introduce the concept of finite Ramanujan…

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…

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 result $ \sum_{n\leq x}\varphi([x/n])=(6/\pi^2)x\log x+O\left ( x(\log x)^{2/3}(\log\log…

We study M(n), the number of distinct values taken by multinomial coefficients with upper entry n, and some closely related sequences. We show that both pP(n)/M(n) and M(n)/p(n) tend to zero as n goes to infinity, where pP(n) is the number…
