On integers not of the form n - φ (n)

J. Browkin, A. Schinzel (1995)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

W. Sierpiński asked in 1959 (see [4], pp. 200-201, cf. [2]) whether there exist infinitely many positive integers not of the form n - φ(n), where φ is the Euler function. We answer this question in the affirmative by proving Theorem. None of the numbers 2 k · 509203 (k = 1, 2,...) is of the form n - φ(n).

On the parity of generalized partition functions, III

Improving on some results of J.-L. Nicolas [], the elements of the set 𝒜 = 𝒜 ( 1 + z + z 3 + z 4 + z 5 ) , for which the partition function p ( 𝒜 , n ) (i.e. the number of partitions of n with parts in 𝒜 ) is even for all n 6 are determined. An asymptotic estimate to the counting function of this set is also given.
