Abstract

top
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.
