An arithmetic function arising from Carmichael’s conjecture

Florian Luca, Paul Pollack (2011)

Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux

Let φ denote Euler’s totient function. A century-old conjecture of Carmichael asserts that for every n , the equation φ ( n ) = φ ( m ) has a solution m n . This suggests defining F ( n ) as the number of solutions m to the equation φ ( n ) = φ ( m ) . (So Carmichael’s conjecture asserts that F ( n ) 2 always.) Results on F are scattered throughout the literature. For example, Sierpiński conjectured, and Ford proved, that the range of F contains every natural number k 2 . Also, the maximal order of F has been investigated by Erdős and Pomerance. In...

An identity involving Dedekind sums and generalized Kloosterman sums

Le Huan, Jingzhe Wang, Tingting Wang (2012)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

The various properties of classical Dedekind sums S ( h , q ) have been investigated by many authors. For example, Yanni Liu and Wenpeng Zhang: A hybrid mean value related to the Dedekind sums and Kloosterman sums, Acta Mathematica Sinica, 27 (2011), 435–440 studied the hybrid mean value properties involving Dedekind sums and generalized Kloosterman sums K ( m , n , r ; q ) . The main purpose of this paper, is using the analytic methods and the properties of character sums, to study the computational problem of one kind of...
