On the divisor function over Piatetski-Shapiro sequences

Hui Wang, Yu Zhang (2023)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Let [ x ] be an integer part of x and d ( n ) be the number of positive divisor of n . Inspired by some results of M. Jutila (1987), we prove that for 1 < c < 6 5 , n x d ( [ n c ] ) = c x log x + ( 2 γ - c ) x + O x log x , where γ is the Euler constant and [ n c ] is the Piatetski-Shapiro sequence. This gives an improvement upon the classical result of this problem.

On the error term of the logarithm of the lcm of a quadratic sequence

Juanjo Rué, Paulius Šarka, Ana Zumalacárregui (2013)

Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux

We study the logarithm of the least common multiple of the sequence of integers given by 1 2 + 1 , 2 2 + 1 , , n 2 + 1 . Using a result of Homma [5] on the distribution of roots of quadratic polynomials modulo primes we calculate the error term for the asymptotics obtained by Cilleruelo [3].

On the product of balanced sequences

Antonio Restivo, Giovanna Rosone (2012)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications - Informatique Théorique et Applications

The product w = u ⊗ v of two sequences u and v is a naturally defined sequence on the alphabet of pairs of symbols. Here, we study when the product w of two balanced sequences u,v is balanced too. In the case u and v are binary sequences, we prove, as a main result, that, if such a product w is balanced and deg(w) = 4, then w is an ultimately periodic sequence of a very special form. The case of arbitrary alphabets is approached in the last section. The partial results obtained and the problems...

On the structure of sets with small doubling property on the plane (I)

Yonutz Stanchescu (1998)

Acta Arithmetica

Let K be a finite set of lattice points in a plane. We prove that if |K| is sufficiently large and |K+K| < (4 - 2/s)|K| - (2s-1), then there exist s - 1 parallel lines which cover K. We also obtain some more precise structure theorems for the cases s = 3 and s = 4.
