Odd perfect numbers of a special form

Tomohiro Yamada (2005)

Colloquium Mathematicae

We show that there is an effectively computable upper bound of odd perfect numbers whose Euler factors are powers of fixed exponent.

On 5 -tuples of twin practical numbers

Giuseppe Melfi (1999)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

Un intero positivo m si dice pratico se ogni intero n con 1 < n < m può essere espresso come una somma di divisori distinti positivi di m . In questo articolo è affrontato il problema dell'esistenza di infinite cinquine di numeri pratici della forma m - 6 , m - 2 , m , m + 2 , m + 6 .

On a certain class of arithmetic functions

Antonio M. Oller-Marcén (2017)

Mathematica Bohemica

A homothetic arithmetic function of ratio K is a function f : R such that f ( K n ) = f ( n ) for every n . Periodic arithmetic funtions are always homothetic, while the converse is not true in general. In this paper we study homothetic and periodic arithmetic functions. In particular we give an upper bound for the number of elements of f ( ) in terms of the period and the ratio of f .

On a class of ψ -convolutions characterized by the identical equation

Jean-Louis Nicolas, Varanasi Sitaramaiah (2002)

Journal de théorie des nombres de Bordeaux

The identical equation for multiplicative functions established by R. Vaidyanathaswamy in the case of Dirichlet convolution in 1931 has been generalized to multiplicativity preserving ψ -convolutions satisfying certain conditions (cf. [7]) which can be called as Lehmer-Narkiewicz convolutions for some reasons. In this paper we prove the converse.

On a congruence of Emma Lehmer related to Euler numbers

John B. Cosgrave, Karl Dilcher (2013)

Acta Arithmetica

A congruence of Emma Lehmer (1938) for Euler numbers E p - 3 modulo p in terms of a certain sum of reciprocals of squares of integers was recently extended to prime power moduli by T. Cai et al. We generalize this further to arbitrary composite moduli n and characterize those n for which the sum in question vanishes modulo n (or modulo n/3 when 3|n). Primes for which E p - 3 0 ( m o d p ) play an important role, and we present some numerical results.

On a conjecture of Dekking : The sum of digits of even numbers

Iurie Boreico, Daniel El-Baz, Thomas Stoll (2014)

Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux

Let q 2 and denote by s q the sum-of-digits function in base q . For j = 0 , 1 , , q - 1 consider # { 0 n &lt; N : s q ( 2 n ) j ( mod q ) } . In 1983, F. M. Dekking conjectured that this quantity is greater than N / q and, respectively, less than N / q for infinitely many N , thereby claiming an absence of a drift (or Newman) phenomenon. In this paper we prove his conjecture.
