Average Value of the Euler Function on Binary Palindromes

William D. Banks, Igor E. Shparlinski (2006)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

We study values of the Euler function φ(n) taken on binary palindromes of even length. In particular, if 2 denotes the set of binary palindromes with precisely 2ℓ binary digits, we derive an asymptotic formula for the average value of the Euler function on 2 .

Banach algebra techniques in the theory of arithmetic functions

Lutz G. Lucht (2008)

Acta Mathematica Universitatis Ostraviensis

For infinite discrete additive semigroups X [ 0 , ) we study normed algebras of arithmetic functions g : X endowed with the linear operations and the convolution. In particular, we investigate the problem of scaling the mean deviation of related multiplicative functions for X = log . This involves an extension of Banach algebras of arithmetic functions by introducing weight functions and proving a weighted inversion theorem of Wiener type in the frame of Gelfand’s theory of commutative Banach algebras.

Billiard complexity in the hypercube

Nicolas Bedaride, Pascal Hubert (2007)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

We consider the billiard map in the hypercube of d . We obtain a language by coding the billiard map by the faces of the hypercube. We investigate the complexity function of this language. We prove that n 3 d - 3 is the order of magnitude of the complexity.

Circles passing through five or more integer points

Shaunna M. Plunkett-Levin (2013)

Acta Arithmetica

We find an improvement to Huxley and Konyagin’s current lower bound for the number of circles passing through five integer points. We conjecture that the improved lower bound is the asymptotic formula for the number of circles passing through five integer points. We generalise the result to circles passing through more than five integer points, giving the main theorem in terms of cyclic polygons with m integer point vertices. Theorem. Let m ≥ 4 be a fixed integer. Let W m ( R ) be the number of cyclic polygons...
