On consecutive integers divisible by the number of their divisors

Titu Andreescu, Florian Luca, M. Tip Phaovibul (2016)

Acta Arithmetica

We prove that there are no strings of three consecutive integers each divisible by the number of its divisors, and we give an estimate for the number of positive integers n ≤ x such that each of n and n + 1 is a multiple of the number of its divisors.

On generalized square-full numbers in an arithmetic progression

Let a and b . Denote by R a , b the set of all integers n > 1 whose canonical prime representation n = p 1 α 1 p 2 α 2 p r α r has all exponents α i ( 1 i r ) ...

On ideals free of large prime factors

Eira J. Scourfield (2004)

Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux

In 1989, E. Saias established an asymptotic formula for Ψ ( x , y ) = n x : p n p y with a very good error term, valid for exp ( log log x ) ( 5 / 3 ) + ϵ y x , x x 0 ( ϵ ) , ϵ > 0 . We extend this result to an algebraic number field K by obtaining an asymptotic formula for the analogous function Ψ K ( x , y ) with the same error term and valid in the same region. Our main objective is to compare the formulae for Ψ ( x , y ) and Ψ K ( x , y ) , and in particular to compare the second term in the two expansions.

On prime factors of integers of the form (ab+1)(bc+1)(ca+1)

K. Győry, A. Sárközy (1997)

Acta Arithmetica

1. Introduction. For any integer n > 1 let P(n) denote the greatest prime factor of n. Győry, Sárközy and Stewart [5] conjectured that if a, b and c are pairwise distinct positive integers then (1) P((ab+1)(bc+1)(ca+1)) tends to infinity as max(a,b,c) → ∞. In this paper we confirm this conjecture in the special case when at least one of the numbers a, b, c, a/b, b/c, c/a has bounded prime factors. We prove our result in a quantitative form by showing that if is a finite set of triples (a,b,c)...

On rough and smooth neighbors.

William D. Banks, Florian Luca, Igor E. Shparlinski (2007)

Revista Matemática Complutense

We study the behavior of the arithmetic functions defined byF(n) = P+(n) / P-(n+1) and G(n) = P+(n+1) / P-(n) (n ≥ 1)where P+(k) and P-(k) denote the largest and the smallest prime factors, respectively, of the positive integer k.
